They're pretty good actually. This season has been downright enjoyable. So far, they haven't been the .500 team that some of the naysayers were projecting.

I'm enjoying the ride.
I know it may not last, but these guys are fun to watch- win or lose.
I look forward to seeing some youth coming up, at some point, too.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
Waiting for the punchline.
It's funny that our biggest needs 1B/2B/LF all happen to be our best offensive prospects.
The pen may be a "mess" but it's still top 10 in baseball. Getting rid of the bottom 2 guys and replacing them with productive young arms will help.
Also three positions Danny Santana can play
...and Chavis.Also three positions Danny Santana can play

That's less funny, but ok.Also three positions Danny Santana can play
Half chuckle.
I still don't understand why they didn't have him play LF at all in ST. Just crazy to me.
It’s also more immediate
But less exciting unless he can recreate his 2019 aberration.
You must be the Anti-Ghost.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
I've made this point, before, and one can argue SP'ing is one of our top 4 high need areas. According to soxprospects.com, there are our top prospects, as of now:
1B Casas
2B Downs
CF Duran
SP Whitlock
SP Houck
OF Jimenez
SP Seabold
SP Ward
It's no mistake Bloom did not go out and spend large and long at these 4 positions.
On top of this, we also have other depth at some of these areas- some AAAA types, some more promising:
1B: Chavis, Santana, Ockimey (kills LHP)
2B: Chavis, Santana, Arauz
OF: Santana, Puello, Gettys (This area is thin)
P: (Besides moving Whitlock to SP) Weber, Gossett, Hart, Politi & others (also thin)

Boo!!!
Gotcha again. I'm the proto-ghost. The creme de la creme. The pinnacle. The apex. The zenith. The alpha. The omega.
I figured this season would be sub-.500. I remember the years when the June swoon was normale, but not since JH took over.
