    3.3 Story
    3.1 Swanson

    6.0 Correa
    5.7 Story
    4.9 Swanson
    3.6 Baez (HAD A BAD 2020)

    OPS
    21
    .875 Bogey
    .845 Correa
    .826 Baez
    .801 Story
    .774 Swanson

    18-21
    .898 Bogey
    .882 Story
    .823 Baez
    .811 Semien

    Bogey is so good you had to give him double the WAR!

    I would do it, but would Bloom? If the Sox move X to another position, would he opt out?

    He may opt out if you keep him at SS.

    I would put it at 100% if he is moved, based on previous statements made about how he feels about the position. But it’s probably at like 95% if he stays at shortstop anyway…

    No comp pick for Baez, since he was traded mid season (No QO).

    Teams might value the short term nature of Bogey's "low cost" deal. Teams that think 2022 is their best chance but don't want to give out any long term deals.

    Sign Story and have him play 2B. If Xander leaves, Story moves to SS. If Xander stays, try to work out who gets SS long term.

    I would sit Xander down and try to reason with him that RF and 2B would be a better fit for him as he ages.

    He's faster than Kiké, maybe he could take over in CF.

    I think it's 100% he opts out.

    The question is, do we re-sign him?

    If we think we won't, we might want to be proactive and sign someone, this year- a year with 3 excellent choices (but costly).

    I could be wrong, but I think Story is clearly the better defensive SS. If I sign him, I trade or move Bogey to 2B (or 3B, if we want to get radical.)

    Kike is a great CF'er. Why move Bogey to CF, instead of 2B?

    At some point, the Sox have to throw a bone to Red Sox Nation TM. They need to extend somebody long term. Why not Xander and Raffy?

    Bogey is faster than Kiké. Maybe he still wants to play next to his buddy Raffy.

    Devers could go to LF.

    I do worry about Story's numbers away from Coors.
