Below 100 OPS+ last two years
-
So you think he'd get a 1 year deal at that rate on the open market? I say no.
-
Verdugo's ceiling is higher than what Benny is right now. Benny is nowhere near his "ceiling" but it seems like he won't get there. The Reddick/Kalish comparisons are silly IMO. Neither were the prospect that Verdugo is right now.
-
Ok.
-
I've always said they should just pay him.
-
He only gets moved to the Padres is the deal gets them under the lux tax OR it's the only deal on the table. Padres should have just worked out a quick deal before the Dodgers could roll up.
-
Thankfully, it looks like the Dodgers are more interested in trading for Betts.
-
The GM is on the hot seat. He has a limited budget and needs to get the owners to believe in him. If he doesn't get Betts, he's probably fired as the Padres will be a for sure also ran team.
-
I think some posters would say 350/10 is too much, but that they should still pay it just to keep him around.
-
Benny has never played that side of the field before. I'd just leave him in LF. Myers would be underwhelming, but I'm not sure Benny would be any better.
-
But there are comparable guys still sitting unsigned in FA. It's clear to me that this seems to be an overpay.
-
@redsoxstats If Price is traded the Sox will obviously need to spend some money coming up, but I'd say the top priority would the window you just created to sign a Devers extension that gets his 2020 minimum salary included to lower his AAV long term.
-
Myers would be in RF.
-
I bet he's back on a smaller deal. The Sox don't really have a CF replacement in the organization.
-
No, but they could have used the $6M elsewhere. Brock Holt?
-
Thanksgiving is an absolute nightmare.
-
Because people want him to stay and aren't concerned with Henry's bank account.
-
I'm a glass half full kinda guy on the Mookie contract.
-
They are only really making that trade to get rid of Myers' salary. Getting Betts for a year just would help ticket sales.

Who Will Be The Red Sox Manager in 2020?
mvp 78 replied to Tedballgame's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I'm fine with it. -
@redsoxstats The Sox with a big showing on this list, four names. Pitchers Chih-Jung Liu and Luis Perales are ranked right next to each other and Perales is getting monster reviews after his stuff exploded since agreeing with Boston.
-
That seems to be the best they can do with their budget considering that MLB attendance has dropped 4 consecutive years and the Padres don't have a record breaking tv deal.
-
#metoo
-
Should have non-tendered him, but re-signed him in FA for about 2/10M.
-
Could eat some of the contract and move him to PITT? Agree with the tender issue. It's why I made that post way back when. Don't tender a guy to overpay him when you're trying to cut salary.
