The Chance of a MLB Story with Statcast Trevor
It is an unbelievable story when you think about it. The Boston Red Sox had just extended the top prospect Roman Anthony to an eight year contract and meanwhile the other young players have been locked as well in the case of Trevor Story.
Trevor Story has been on a roll. He may be the worst Statcast cannon on the team with a 82.8 mph throw to first. The Sox were dealt with some nagging issues to start the season with first base such as the injury of Tristan Casas and Rafael Devers.
Devers refused to play first base and who could blame him. He could not play for jack in Boston in the year of 2025 and it was all because of his stinking attitude. Devers is now batting career lows in San Francisco even though the Giants are having a down season and most likely returning to form the following year.
Casas was a major concern but Kristian Campbell, Jaren Duran, Marcelo Meyer, Alex Bregman, and Roman Anthony have exceeded expectations. Just take a look at the veteran impact of Bregman with a .933 OPS and his homecoming in Houston. He still receives cheers as a major MLB superstar even though the coin has flipped to Story who has performed well since his May series against Milwaukee.
He went onto his first American League Player of the Week honors in July going 9-of-23 with 3 homers and eight RBI’s and has contributed nicely for the Red Sox to wonder if there are a legitimate Wild AL Contender? The answer, is a resounding yes.
The Red Sox is legitimate simply because of manager Alex Cora returning and providing a swagger of confidence. He tried the faith card with Devers but now this team is on its horses with Story averaging more games this year (115) than his final season in Colorado (142).
His stats are well up to par than most shortstops and you have to believe his veteran experience and Bregman’s paired with the youth of this ball club is destined to possibly beat out the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees and go on and win one thing, the AL East pennant.

Is Kyle Schwarber Worth $300 million According to David Samson?
Yes or No?
SamsonNo, Kyle Schwarber is not worth $300 million in the midst of August. He still has yet to prove the significance of his past as compared to his past prior to the Phillies. He needs to hone on the postseason to embrace the Philadelphia community. They will likely budge but Cincinnati is the likely destination with sources that will aim high like any team is willing to deal for a player that might go sky range depending on his worth on the market.

What To Know About Roman Anthony Deal
Roman Anthony has signed an 8 year extension worth $130 million, including a club option in 2034. By that time, current Little Leaguers will be featured in MLB.
The catch is Marcelo Meyer, Ceddanne Rafaela, Garrett Crochet, and Kristian Campbell are mainstays. They have signed early long- term extensions, too, and are set to undergo the next phase of this franchise under the Fenway Sports Group (FSG).
Fans wondered why the Red Sox did not test the waters at the deadline but rest assured they got their man in Anthony who has hit 2 HR, .283 AVG and an .828 OPS.
The question I have is water dominance meaning is Anthony determined to swim and beat Cam Smith, Jacob Wilson, and Nick Kurtz in the AL Rookie of the Year Race?
The Boston Red Sox remain 64-51 in the AL East behind Toronto. You could argue Bo Bichette has returned to his normal scary self as a former top prospect, too. This all remains, in doubt.
