@sportslarryk It was a lose lose for both teams as the red Sox have none of these players now. Dustin May for James Tibbs is an even worse trade. Main problem is Devers wasn't supposed to be the final piece of the puzzle but a very lame off season of moves set this up to be worse than it is.
@BaseballWRLD_ The level of defensive catcher player in the league has dropped off a cliff since Buster and Yadier retired in favor of a more offensive player at the position. It has made a an above average defender in Bailey seem all world
@K9Dirk With abs do you really think framing pitches is important anymore? And last season, Bailey's pitch framing went against him as umpires were not giving him the benefit of the doubt on actual strikes.
@Searcy306@Chorgan2282@JeffPassan Bailey scratched and clawed to get back to the average he had last season, and his gold gloves might be the most fraudulent this century. With abs his elite pitch framing is for naught. Glove is average, but plus at throwing runners out
@grantcohn Heyward-Bey didn't go over the middle taking on safeties to make contested catches, wasn't a hands catcher. OSU film shows off a lot more variety
