Graveman to Astros

Graveman to Astros.
The Sox are getting catcher Korey Lee.

A first round pick out of Cal. Legit guy.

Lee is #5 in the Astros’ prospects. He was a teammate and draftmate of Andrew Vaughn.

Catchers galore

With the acquisitions of Quero and Lee, catcher has gone from a glaring organizational weakness to something of a strength.

The rebuild part 3: "This time we go all in on catchers."

[LITTLE NELL]

So far I think we are doing good with our acquisitions but things are really going to be ugly for the rest of 2023 as the Sox are heading for a 100+ losses.
So far we haven’t seen any position players traded but there are rumors of Eloy to the Brewers.

It had to be addressed. Other than Hackenberg, who profiles as a backup, and Calvin Harris (drafted this year), the catching cupboard was pretty bare.

Let’s hope they win the draft lottery and get the first pick.

Hahn must have watched Carlos Perez when he was just up and decided he never wants to see that again.

And we don’t want to see anymore of Grandal and Zavala.

Preach on!!!!! The transfer of the tools of ignorance.

Love this deal.

And we don’t want to see anymore of Grandal and Zavala.

Even if you were able to somehow combine them, the result would still be a below average catcher.

Grandal is not good at stopping the running game, but he hits well when healthy. Zavala is a tad better at the running game, but his hitting is way below average. Neither of them are really good catchers defensively, although I think Zavala may have a slight edge there.

Bring on the new guys.

I've read that the Marlins are interested in the self-described 'best player on the field'. We'll see how that goes.

I was wondering if Hahn noted we have 5 fewer pitchers. Maybe with Moncada taking 3B back, Burger can pitch? Our version of "Ohtani". All kidding aside, the chemistry had to change.
