Community Projections

2014 Red Sox community projections: Edward Mujica

You may have forgotten, but the Red Sox acquired a pretty good reliever over the offseason.

2014 Red Sox community projections: Clay Buchholz

Can Clay Buchholz stay healthy?

2014 Red Sox community projections: John Lackey

The Red Sox finally got the man they paid John Lackey to be. Will he come again in 2014?

2014 Red Sox community projections: Felix Doubront

Felix Doubront is in shape. Will that be enough to finally push him over the top?

2014 Red Sox community projections: Mike Napoli

Is Mike Napoli doomed to regress?

2014 Red Sox community projections: Dustin Pedroia

A lot rests on the second baseman's thumb. Maybe.

Nava leads off the OTM lineup; now who bats 2nd?

In the end, the lure of Nava's .411 OBP against righties was too much to resist. But who will bat behind him?

2014 community projections: Will Middlebrooks

Can Will Middlebrooks make 2013 look like a sophomore slump? Or will he prove to just not be that good?

2014 community projections: Jackie Bradley Jr.

We've covered one top prospect. Now for the next.

2014 lineup voting — Who leads off?

Time to vote for who you think should lead off in 2014—No waffling.

2014 community projections: Xander Bogaerts

Let's get projecting, starting with the most exciting prospect this side of Double-A: Xander Bogaerts!

2013 Community Projections: Black sheep Dempster

The Red Sox signed some pretty good free agents for 2013. Ryan Dempster did not turn out to be one of them.

Community projections: Just a bit low on Lackey

We were just a bit low on our projections for John Lackey. And yes, I mean that as a Major League reference.

2013 community projections: Lester...disappoints?

It's hard to believe, but the numbers don't lie. At least for the community, Jon Lester's season was a disappointment.

Community projections: Uncannily accurate on Drew

We here at Over The Monster know our Drews.

2013 community projections: Jonny Gomes did things

It's time for everybody's favorite kinda, sorta, but not really a platoon player! Even if he should be!

2013 community projections: Will Middlebrooks

This is one we haven't been waiting for.

2013 community projections: Napoli of the bad hip

Remember when everyone was freaking out about Mike Napoli's hip? Good times.

2013 community projections: The surprising Shanf

The Hawaiian flew again.

2013 Community Projections: Jacoby Ellsbury

Jacoby Ellsbury had a big year, just not in the way some of us expected.

2013 Community Projections: Dustin Pedroia

A torn thumb ligament could have ruined Dustin Pedroia's season. Instead, it just messed up our power projections some.

What are we expecting from Xander Bogaerts?

The results are in: Xander Bogaerts is not expected to be Mike Trout just yet.

2013 Red Sox community projections: Dustin Pedroia

Dustin Pedroia is the heart and soul of the Red Sox. Is he still one of their best players?

2013 Red Sox community projections: David Ortiz

David Ortiz is hurting. Will his injury drag him down again, or is he just about ready to storm back?

2013 Red Sox community projections: Another closer

The Red Sox have a closer. And another. And three more guys who could do the job. After all is said and done, who will have emerged as Boston's go-to reliever?

2013 Red Sox community projections: Joel Hanrahan

For the second straight year, the Sox have brought in a closer from outside. Will this year's model be any more successful?

2013 Red Sox community projections: Felix Doubront

2013 could see Felix Doubront head in any direction.

2013 Red Sox community projections: John Lackey

There's no good will left for John Lackey in Boston. But is there any hope?

2013 Red Sox Community Projections: Clay Buchholz

How will Clay Buchholz respond to an up-and-down--wait, strike that, reverse it--2012 season?

2013 Red Sox Community Projections: Jon Lester

Jon Lester could be the pitcher the Red Sox need to put them over the top, or he could be the pitcher who dragged them down in 2012.

2013 Red Sox Community Projections: Ryan Dempster

Ryan Dempster could save the Red Sox' rotation, or he could prove to be an NL-only arm. Which do the fans think is most likely?

2013 Red Sox Community Projections: Jonny Gomes

It's not clear exactly what Jonny Gomes' role on the team is. Will he be an impact player, or wind up on the short end of a platoon?
