    And at that price point, I wouldn't want the Sox to make that trade.

    If he hits his ceiling, his salary will be a huge bargain. No kidding... You could say that about almost anyone. That does not make him a rare commodity. He has never pitched a full season at a high level. It has never happened. The past rumors that were speculated were just as much BS as my previous post. He was healthy in 2014 when Ben unloaded Lester and Lackey. You know why Buchholz wasn't traded then? Because he flat out sucked that year. If they received any real interest, he would have been out the door.

    Matt Harvey is making me hate the Mets so much right now...

    f*** yeah I'd trade Swihart, Moncada, Benintendi and Owens for Trout! I just don't see that as giving up enough to get it done. You'd have to replace Owens with Espinoza and add Devers to the mix for them to even consider it. They still probably say no. I think the Sox would have to trade Mookie, Benintendi, Espinoza, ERod and Moncada to get it done. The Angels are in LA (barely) and are in direct competition with the beloved Dodgers. It's a superstar market and it would be very hard for them to give up the greatest player of this generation.

    Angels wouldn't make that trade. The article also mentioned using Xander or Mookie in the trade...

    Theo: Pedey, Papi, Bogaerts, Vazquez, Buchholz, Jackie Bradley Jr, Mookie Betts, Travis Shaw... That's 30% of the roster right there and more than that for just production...
  7. mvp 78
    If any teams coveted Buchholz, he would have been traded by now.
  8. mvp 78
    I wish your mojo good luck... Win!
  9. mvp 78
    If we had pitching prospects in the pipeline, I don't think we'd be as concerned. Espinoza is a few years away and ERod is in the midst of a lost year.

    Aren't we always complaining about the 12th guy in the bullpen or the 25th man on the roster?
  11. mvp 78
    The Sox are playing well and we desperately need something to complain about.
  12. mvp 78
    I just don't ever understand this reasoning. You either like having Buchholz as a part of the rotation and think he can succeed or you don't pick him up.
  13. mvp 78
    The All Star game is purely about name recognition. Not sure Bradley has better recognition than Betts at this point. He's still a #9 hitter and a guy who has been productive for less than 12 months at this point.
  14. mvp 78
    Sure, but there's more evidence against Papi AND he's a DH. Bagwell should have been a first ballot guy based on his JAWS.
  15. mvp 78
    No hard evidence against Bagwell and he's not in.
  16. mvp 78
    Castillo has been rolling in Pawtucket. He'll be the next guy called up imo.
  17. mvp 78
    That's true.
  18. mvp 78
    Gross. If I move, it'll be to one of the coasts.
  19. mvp 78
    It will state "banned" under their username.

    You mortgage the future if you set yourself up for a good 4-5 year run. Doing it for a 1 year shot doesn't make sense to me. Plus, we have 3 recent championship banners. I don't see the urgency here.
  21. mvp 78
    I have seen him go more to RF this season and have been very pleased with it so far. To me, he's still a few hr's away from thinking he needs to go La Luna every game. If he keeps up the good work, I may have to revise the Three Point Plan.
  22. mvp 78
    You don't mortgage the future just because it's a retiring player's last season.
  23. mvp 78
    Yes, he's been doing a much better job recently. He is a much better hitter when he uses all fields like Chili said in the article I posted.
  24. mvp 78
    Chen had a QO attached to him though.
  25. mvp 78
    Don't be ridiculous. Fangraphs would have nothing useful to give the Sox in return!
