How has the team been compared to expectations? Any players doing better than you'd hoped? Worse? What are some roster moves you may be contemplating?

I expected us to be top 3 in the AL East, but some players have really disappointed.

Devers has been his usual self, just mashing bombs, you can tell as soon as he swings if he has blasted it.

Sale, Duvall, Hernandez, Kluber and verdugo have all been a little disappointing. Duvall might shock you, he can smash the ball but strikes out a lot, even in the sim.

Verdugo I love as a player but he is so slow to react and also get to balls, there have been a few doubles and even triples that a outfielder with a little bit of speed would have got to, so that’s why he is disappointing. Great with the bat.

Sale and Kluber were expected to be the keys to my rotation and both have been a let down. Saying that the whole rotation is rocks or diamonds.

Move wise I have played the next 2 series against the Mets and Braves, so I think giving my record and the demand for starters and closers that Sale could be moved and I could get a good return for him, Hernandez is defiantly in the outer and the Smokey is Jansen.

I have enough at the backend of the bullpen to use as a closer if I go that route.

devAHs!

sale stepped up finally. 5 innings of no-run baseball

About time, the question is was it a showcase for a new team or is he here to stay?

Devers is an animal, so is Yoshida.

Would be interesting to see you move some big pieces and try to build the team back up through the minors and draft instead of just spending 200m. Don't see many baseball chises go long enough to really build a team though.

Yeah i like the building idea, its easy to buy a team. but i think given my current situation, prospects and young talent might be the best course of action.
