    How many teams spent more than the Sox, this winter, on 2022 salary, only?

    I don't know, but I think a more meaningful question would be about increases from 2021 payroll for tax purposes. Right now we're up about 30 million over 2021.
    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.

    If we took on Wil Meyers And Hosmer ?How much would the Padres eat ? Wil has an ideal swing for Fenway and say what you want about Hosmer he is leaps and bounds better than what we have at First .Hosmer is a high average player still and Fenway may help that even more ...with a black hole at the plate like JBJ most nights it would be nice to have men on base to drive in. I am for this deal but understand 99 percent think this insane ...oh well.Have them throw in pitching ? Hosiery has regressed Defensively so it’s fair to destroy the thought .

    So, I guess Kennedy was lying.

    Now that we're firmly over the first tax line, one has to wonder about future spending plans.

    Who else is out there as a difference maker?

    Could a trade be in the works?

    Again Univision reporter suggesting the As love our farm system and we have a loaded farm to which they would trade Manea amongst others. This reporter says Boston Could keep Casas Meyer York Duran and still have a deep enough system to deal now easily .

    A team with a stronger farm system could probably top any Red Sox offer that does not include Triston Casas, Marcelo Mayer, Nick Yorke or Jarren Duran.

    I’d be surprised if the Sox get either without dipping into their top prospects or someone on the big league roster.

    Nothing, they will eat nothing. They will give you good prospects to take on that contract. Now’s the time to take on a meets contract, platoon him with JBJ and get a prospect in return.

    Hosmer 2021 fWAR: 0.0.

    He's signed through 2025.

    They can likely top Duran, too.

    According to BTV, two Durans are needed to get Montas.

    The Red Sox make a minor move, claiming righty Kyle Tyler off waivers from the Angels and designating Hudson Potts for assignment.

    From Fangraphs:

    Tyler gained about three ticks on his heater and slider in 2021, which helped him blossom from an org guy into a legitimate relief prospect. The righty comes at hitters straight over the top with a cutter that carries more than you’d guess based on the pitch’s spin rate and efficiency, and he pairs it with a vertically-oriented, almost 12-6 slider. His game basically boils down to tunneling those two offerings, as the other three pitches are mostly ornamental. He projects as an up-and-down spot starter or long reliever.

    Red Sox, and Raffy can’t agree on a contract for this year, so looks like arbitration. Doesn’t look good going forward.
