A Realistic View at 2021: Part I

BMI is used best to track each person’s own personal growth. The numbers are guidelines only, yet the populous decided to use them as strict, cut and dry numbers to determine if someone was overweight or obese.

What's the name of the test that determines your muscle fat ratio?

Is that the one where you are submerged under water or something like that?

I'm sure Judge would come out okay on that one, whereas Pabloaf would be off the chart.

Depends on just how long they kept him submerged.

You cannot submerge Panda. But you can watch him beach himself until the tide comes in...

Same as with baseball defense.

Personally I think it's a lot more reliable with obesity, Dean.

That's the Bacta Tank Test.

Ah, but do you take your height measurement with your cleats on or off?

Only seven more games at most before Alex Cora gets hired to manage in the MLB again. What are the odds it's Boston, Chicago or Detroit?

I'd say 51% Red Sox, because no one in the organization has yet to say it won't be AC, or that it will be someone new. There's also added incentive to act fast, because of competitor interest and to kickstart the offseason. Chicago has to be at least 33%, with the Tigers 16% at best.

I'd say 67% BOS, but maybe that's just my wishful thinking.

I'd go 40/30/10/20 (BOS/CHI/DET/NOBODY)

A look at our prospect rankings on soxprospects.com.

With so many additions, it's not surprising that many prospects fell in the rankings as players were slotted above them, but only 1 Sox prospect actually moved up in the rankings: Jarren Duran from #7 to #4 in the September Rankings:

https://www.soxprospects.com/index.html

Here is where our newbies were slotted (none in the top 10):
11. Jeisson Rosario (for Moreland)
12. Connor Seabold (w. Pivetta for Workman/Hembree)
15. Hudson Potts (for Moreland)
20. Jacob Wallace (for Pillar)
30. Deivy Grullon (waivers from PHI)

Draftee placements:
13. Nick Yorke
16. Blaze Jordon
37. Shane Drohan

Biggest drops in the September rankings (some due to additions not by poor play):
-7 Chatham
-5 Bello, Liu, Rodriguez, Wilson, Flores, Feltman, Aybar and many more
-4 Zeferjahn, Bonaci, Decker, Cannon
-3 Jordan
