He had negative dWAR each year. Call me crazy, but I think that the Red Sox would like something better than that, considering their investment. I just don't think they're likely to get it.

A lot of players have a negative dWAR. What matters is if they're a net positive with their offense. I don't know if Bregman will have a negative dWAR or not, but I'm pretty sure he'll be a net positive. And if he's not, or he really struggles at 2B, I'm sure the Red Sox will figure something out. It's only a 3-year contract and given there are opts out after year 1 and 2 I wouldn't be surprised if he leaves on his own accord. If I were them, I'd be more concerned over the Devers situation.
Bregman was a good signing. I wish the Jays had signed him.

It's more like a D. I can't wait for the day they get rid of Shapiro and Atkins. If only we could keep them for the pitching side of the organization and bring in a totally different group to acquire and develop the hitting side. I wonder if there's ever been a management group that was so good at one side of the game while so bad at the other. I'm not even that opposed to any of the losses or acquisitions, it's just I have absolutely zero faith in management.
Instead of signing him to play, I would have been more excited if they had signed Max Scherzer to be GM. He's a smart dude.
