You can deal him, but I don't know how much value he has right now. You'd probably get more for Pomeranz who has a good chance of massive regression this year.
They are both replacement level players. The difference between them is hardly noticeable over the long run. I'd keep Lin because he has also worked out in the OF and could be a super UTIL guy. Marrero has only played IF from what I remember.
All I'm saying in people on THISSSS board had no problem calling out Chapman for what he did, but are now clutching at pearls in order to defend Steven Wright.
He's 34 with multiple years hindered by shoulder issues. Surgery can only do so much. He's no longer playing on the back 9 of his career. He's approaching the 19th hole.

Red Sox expecting that RHP Ben Taylor, DFA'd to make room for Nunez, will be lost on waiver claim and are monitoring relief market for depth
It's new territory with Cora for sure. None of us no for certain how he'll react or manage from game to game. Should be interesting. I hope it's better than Farrell's asleep at the wheel routine.

I just find it very interesting that Price said "prepare to be booed" to JD. If he mashes, he'll rarely get booed.
Price said that he heard Papi get booed at some point. I find that hard to believe.
