I have zero idea what role he could and will play with the Red Sox in the 2027 season. However, I am strongly against trading him this offseason. This is a kid you trusted to give an 8-year deal and he showed more flashes of being himself last season. Keep him in the org
Per @ChrisCotillo, Kristian Campbell could be a "sneaky trade candidate" for the Red Sox this offseason, especially if Boston tries to deal for a player on a big contract.
Campbell turns 25 in June and is signed through 2032 (8 years, $60M). Never made it back to the majors in 2026 but had a .763 OPS with 8 HR at Triple-A Worcester after a red-hot second half.
He played at least 111 innings at each outfield spot in 2026 and none in the infield.

Drake Maye or the Schedule? 🤔
2025: Drake had one of the best QB seasons ever. Yet many claimed it was a product of the schedule.
So… I took every other QB who faced the same 14 defenses and combined them into 1 average QB…
any statement saying"not many skills needed for baseball" lol

Drake Maye was under pressure on 42.9% of his dropbacks against Chicago and still played some of his best football when the pocket collapsed.
Under pressure:
• 11/12 passing (91.7%)
• 151 yards
• 1 TD
That 91.7% completion rate ties the highest single-game mark under pressure in the NFL this season.
321 yards, 2 TDs, and a loss. Maye deserved better.

Post-Game Thoughts
- I thought Drake played very well. Outside of the INT, he was exceptional. Truthfully, I'd rather my QB (the 2nd youngest starting QB in the NFL right now) keep pushing the ball and learn from his mistakes than be a dink-and-dunk QB who limits himself because he's afraid to throw picks. That said, let's keep improving. This was Drake's first mental mistake in about 4 weeks. Mistakes also show up in different ways; I'd argue Caleb's sack (in a vacuum) was just as costly. Outside the INT, Drake faced 15 pressures and still put up 347 total yards and 3 total TDs on 77.4% completion. The advanced metrics were great too. Like Mike Vrabel said, he gave us a chance last night, and I'm happy he's ours.
- I thought Caleb Williams was awesome. His sack avoidance was on full display. Even when Zak Kuhr dialled up the perfect blitz, it wasn't enough because Caleb found a way out of it. He was accurate, decisive, and clutch on 3rd down. He was a big reason for their success last night.
- I said it before the game, and I'll say it again: Drake and Caleb are the future of this league. It's good for the sport to have two guys this young who can go toe to toe and deliver top-tier QB play. Players like this don't come around often, so appreciate them while they're here.
- I thought Vrabel managed the game really well. I haven't read up on it yet, but my guess is he'd have gone for it on that 4th down too. After the first couple of drives, McDaniels got comfortable and called a much better game than the pundits will give him credit for.
- As much as I hate any loss, I'm not that mad about this one. On the road, banged up, and the team still played well. Chicago is a great opponent, and we gave them a good run despite the circumstances.
- I really hope we make a move at the deadline. Quenton Nelson is worth it. I don't think you can trust AVT to be healthy this season.
- AJ has been extremely frustrating. I can't imagine he's playing at 100% right now, so I'll stay patient, but he's due for a big game. The two deep balls he dropped were beautiful throws by Drake. We need more out of a player we traded this much to go get. Simple as that.
- The Patriots 2026 Draft class is incredible. Lomu, Jacas, and Raridon will all be long-time contributors for this team.

Oh that's incredible - I can't imagine if John Henry straight up said "yeah the roster just put up an awful performance in the playoffs"
Granted, they did just that. But it's really funny for an owner to put a inefficiently built roster at complete fault

The coming labor Armageddon is much more about the owners’ desire to raise their franchise values than it is about competitive balance, per @Ken_Rosenthal

Who needs a farm system anyway? Just give what we've got to the Orioles again
People around the MLB are wondering if the Orioles are going to trade Gunnar Henderson, per @afkostka
“When you trade Adley Rutschman you open the door and say everyone is movable for a price… if they think Gunnar isn’t going to stick around or you’re not willing to pay what it will cost for him to stick around maybe they do look to move him.”

The youngest starting quarterback in the NFL is down 5 starters on offense and just casually put up 250 and 3 TDs on .39 EPA
10 is as generational of a franchise carrier as you’ll find

“The NBA has a salary cap”
Says the people who ignore the Celtics having to gut their championship team because they *drafted too well* and could barely build a roster around two home grown draft picks that turned into super maxes
Great system there lmao
Both sides offer up absurd arguments. Of course every team can't spend like the Dodgers, but it's equally ridiculous to imply that a lot of small market teams are committed to winning in the first place. There's a difference between a rebuild and whatever the Rockies/Angels do
In 2026, the Red Sox had the 17th ranked offense by wRC+ with players like Narvaez, Story, Duran, and Wong getting considerable runtime. Adding a bat like Suzuki, Jeffers, or Bauers on top of full seasons from Anthony, Mead, and Rutschman and it's not a gap year
MLB teams over the last 25 years in the postseason:
Small Markets - 2 titles | 0.63 series wins per appearance
Medium Markets - 7 titles | 0.80 series wins per appearance
Large Market - 17 titles | 1.14 series wins per appearance
It's wildly insulting for the owners to suggest that they won't pivot because of some semblance of care for the fans. There has been consistent failure to listen to real fan concerns for several generations, and to use that to get what they want is absurd
“Owners do not intend to pivot from their contentions. Their insistence on a cap and floor -- backed, the league says, by surveys that show fans want one”, per @JeffPassan
None of the fanbases that would supposedly benefit from a salary cap being implemented have teams that are managed well in the first place. I get the idea of bridging the money spent, but what makes you think that Bob Nutting or owners like him would actually spend well?
