Now here's Frank Scott and Chris. The Red Sox lost Alex Bregman, but now they've responded.

Welcome into an emergency edition of Fantasy Baseball today on Wednesday, January 14th. I am Frank

Stamphle, joined by Chris Towers. The Red Sox are signing Ranger Suarez to a five-year, $130 million

deal. It looks like they are just leaning all the way into pitching this offseason.

They still have enough moves where they can make trades and things could still happen.

But the way that the team is currently constructed, it seems like they are going to lean on

their pitching staff and hopefully just score enough runs throughout the course of the season.

Ranger Suarez is 30 years old, has dealt with

some recurring back injuries. He's still thrown 150 plus innings two years in a row, and he has

been really good over the past two years. A 333 ERA, 121 whip, a little bit on the high end,

8.7K per 9, all the ERA estimators below 3.7 during that time period.

He is a quality pitcher. Chris, do you think his value changes at all in Boston?

Up or down? Maybe slight downgrade because it's, I don't know. No, probably not, right?

Because it's a, it's a worse home park, although Philadelphia is not a great place to

pitch. It's not a terrible one. Fenway is probably the second most hitter-friendly park in

baseball. But it's a much better offense or defense behind him, right? Like the Red Sox,

especially in the outfield, have a fantastic defense. They should be pretty good in the infield.

We'll see. I think the

infield is not quite settled yet, but I think value holds steady. We likely see his price

increase from these early drafts just because now he signed and there's no uncertainty. His

early ADP is 180.8. That's great. I love that. I'll take him as the 180th player

off the board every single time, but I would guess he moves up a little bit into like the 165, 170 range
