It would have brought the WAR to -0.6.
-
I'm surprised he hasn't yet run to WEEI and declared that he never wanted Pablo in the first place.
-
Kimmi is right, this was a LL move. ^ The rest of the posts are a good trip down memory lane.

@PeteAbe From July 31-Nov. 25, 2014, Red Sox traded for Allen Craig and signed Rusney Castillo and Pablo Sandoval. $195.4 million for minus-1.5 WAR
-
Goodbye Pablo. Pom vs TBD Yanks haven't decided what the rotation will look like as of yet.
-
They've just said it's simply due to age. I think they are being careful about the promotion because they see how much of a valuable commodity he is. They aren't treating him with kid gloves, they are treating him with white cotton gloves as if he's an invaluable piece of art.
-
Please, no more personal attacks about fatties that have no interest in being useful for the remainder of their 8 digit contracts. It's not polite. He's out the door. Let him commence his late era Marlon Brando phase immediately. My guess is that some restaurant on Federal Hill will be very busy today.
-
If they trade Devers for anything less than a controllable All Star, I will stop watching for a long f***ing time (not that it would matter to the FO). If you have the top prospect at a position that you are weak at, it makes no sense to do anything but give them a shot.
-
It was really the most confusing signing the Sox have made that I can remember. I can see how the Crawford signing could have made sense or any of the dumpster signings people have ranted about, but the Pablo deal was just a head scratcher.

@Trav8788 Couple of ways to look at this $1.8M/Run $700K/Hit $1.6M/RBI $6.8M/HR or my favorite $600K/ Game Played
-
Honestly, if we're not blaming Ben, we'd probably have to blame Tom Werner. I can't see even LL wanting that contract.
-
@ScottLauber Sandoval is midway through five-year, $95 million contract. Including the $5 mil buyout on 2020 option, he's owed approximately $49 million. @ScottLauber Sandoval with #RedSox: 161 G, 575 AB, 53 R, 136 H, 27 2B, 1 3B, 14 HR, 59 RBI, 34 BB, 101 K, .237/.286/.360/.646, 71 OPS+, 21 E, -2 WAR.
-
@jonmorosi For now, Pablo Sandoval's contract includes the second largest sum of dead money in @MLB history, after Josh Hamilton ($68.4 million). Thanks Ben.
-
He's probably relieved he can go off his diet now.
-
It's happening meme.
-
Probably, but why would the Sox make that trade? Bour is 29 and plays 1b, Prado is over the hill on an expensive contract and Phelps is an ok reliever. That's not a trade you throw Devers into.
-
At least we now know the "character issues" that helped him fall in the draft.
-
@SPChrisHatfield Meanwhile, decision on Sandoval due by Monday. As @TimBritton just posited, that decision could be tied to Holt's health. Most writers on twitter are surmising that Devers will be called up to AAA in the very near future.
-
@SPChrisHatfield Red Sox have released Jhonny Peralta. I'd surmise that Rafael Devers' promotion is imminent - if not today, then by Monday. They'll need to figure out what to do with Panda too.
-
Why? They brought in Peralta to see if he had anything left. He didn't.
-
Maybe? Cubs gave up a prospect like Devers and another top 100 guy to bring Q in. The Cubs trade seems to be better than Kopech, Chavis and Travis.
-
Too much to give up for Judge.
-
Probably. I'd rather have Sale though and I bet Espinoza would have been used in that trade instead.
-
Unfortunately, you're right about this one.
-
McHugh is already doing rehab starts. He'll be in HOU before the end of the month.
