Buccholz from the Bullpen

I want them to DFA Buchholz. I don't want him here. All I have said was that if he's on the roster at the end of the season, that they'll pick up his option. If Bell wants to refute that with a sig bet, that's fine with me.

im confused. werent you just saying that picking up the option for 2017 is a no-brainer? now you are saying DFA?

I accept the bet with the caveat.

If he's on the roster on 11/1/16, they'll pick up his option. That's all I've ever said. I have never ever ever stated that he would not be traded or DFA'd this season.

i guess i just dont understand how you can believe that picking up his option is a no-brainer and also want to DFA him. they seem like complete opposite choices to me. am i misreading what you are saying?

I'm saying that it's a no brainer that this Sox regime to pick up the option. If they called me in and said "make the offseason moves for us mvp 78," I wouldn't pick up the option. I'm saying the Sox will pick it up for all the dumb reasons they picked it up last year.
