Correa is better defensively than the other 3 combined... but he's obviously fragile.

Correa the best arm and range yes, but as you say fragile and not as durable. Swanson D rated best last year of all 4 and if Correa goes to the Mets he'll play 3rd more than SS with Lindor there.

Correa's dWAR on a 162 game average is significantly better than the other three. Bogaerts barely rates positively though.

It's the staying healthy for 162 games part that's a concern.

Well respected crew chiefs Ted Barrett, Greg Gibson, Tom Hallion, Sam Holbrook, Jerry Meals, Jim Reynolds and Bill Welke are among the group to hang up their chest protectors while Marty Foster, Paul Nauert and Tim Timmons will join them in retirement as well.

That seems like a disproportionate amount of umps to retire at once

Interesting

Oh no doubt his raw talent is the best of the 4. There are some intangible things that give me pause, not just the health, and that's why I can't understand the length of the two contracts he initially received.

Most since 99

Some of the retirements are due to nagging injuries while others are coincidental, as a group of the umpires entered the league around the same time

Juan Vene submits a blank ballot then proceeds to call other writers "idiots" because they vote for more than 3 people. LINK

It wasn't that long ago I didn't think either would ever get in.

#RedSox confirm a @JeffPassan report that Rafael Devers avoided arbitration with a one-year deal.

The $17.5M deal is a hike from $11.2 last season and a bit higher than projections.

That they got this done would suggest further talks on a long-term extension are possible.

Carlos Baerga is saying that the Red Sox will be announcing a Devers extension of 11 years and $332m.

I hope he's right. I would be very happy with that.
