But he’s no Teel replacement
Happy Thursday.
The Red Sox acquired Blake Swihart Sabol from the San Francisco Giants yesterday for some international bonus pool cash.
There’s more coming about him on OTM but as a backup catcher to support Connor Wong and fight with Carlos Narvaez for playing time there isn’t much to get excited about. However, catcher is a job you can’t just slide people into so better to have depth than sending, say, Rob Refsnyder, out there in pads.
Are the Sox waiting to snap up a free agent still on the market? Will Jack Flaherty decide for a one year deal like Adrian Beltre and add even more insurance into the new-look rotation?
Devers, Duran, and I guess Tanner Houck aside, who are you most excited for in 2025?
Talk about what you want and be good to one another.
