@Travis_Sawchik Not a good update for the Red Sox. Boddy being involved with your favorite team is a good thing. Hope he goes to the NL so the Sox don't have to worry about the team that does embrace his consulting.
@mike_petriello Yankees do definitely get help with the short porch. Overall yes, not a hitters park but the short porch does help. So I looked up who leads the league in HR under 370 feet…
It’s Cal with 17. Judge only has 6.
@BaseballJeff1 I said possible locker room issue but the main reason the contract is considered underwater is the insane money it is at that age. It has nothing to do with his offensive production now, which you implied by your initial post.
@BaseballJeff1 You weren't in the Boston locker room. I respect your work but you cannot pretend you were there and know that for a fact. And don't pretend his offense was ever the reason the contract is considered "underwater". Everyone knew his offense at 28 was going to be more than fine.
@IsaacAzout Gusto coming with a 2 seam fastball the first pitch after a home run? Gusto has plus control, hits Acuña, who has been targeted by Marlins pitching throughout his career, and he isn’t allowed to react? How can you say with such confidence that this is nothing?
