    A $31mill AAV is a partial no trade clause as well…

    Why would you give any player a no trade clause if he didn’t want one?

    That's what makes extending Devers a better idea than 11 years for Bogey, or maybe even 6-7 years for Bogey.
    I was ambivalent about Bogaerts. The 11 years I don't really care - again, it's spreading money to make the luxury tax numbers more favorable. But with Bogaerts it is unlikely that he'll recover all that value.

    Yeah I’d hate to see that .652 OPS slip away…

    I think some green font colors are needed, here.

    Way too much money and way too many years for a 0.283 hitter with an OBP of 0.342.
    Terrible signing.

    Why? Bobby has taken a steps backwards the last two years. He's a 0.232 hitter with OBP of 0.298. That's terrible. Unless he can become more patient and can hit the curve, it's not happening.

    Way too little money and way to few years for a 26 year old with a .512 SLG.

    Sure, why not leave out the SLG?
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    I thought your sarcasm was worse than SC30's.

    If you don't like this news, you might have to get checked out for an Eeyore Complex...

    The thing is, for that money we could have gotten 101 Dalbecs. But we don’t need that since we’re no longer think of the owner as Cruella de Ville.


    (This was my best impression of 5Gold. How’d I do?)

    This signing is going to ruin the long narrative of so many posters.

    It may take days for them to regroup and find some fresh pathways.
