Yeah, seems like an unlikely scenario to me too. What about another 1B/DH RHB that is going to be a FA at year's end: Mark Canha. He should be cheaper and is on a team that is well out of it. That seems like a target that should be more reasonable? 921 OPS vs LHP
-
Instead of a 20th ranked prospect, you could get a 17th? IDK. For a lot of these guys, Sox have more of a reason to KEEP them than to trade them.
-
It's no different than wanting to trade players that suck IMO.
-
Other teams don't have the inside info that we do. They just look at boxscores.
-
TalkSox bad. Bar down the street good.
-
Will Smith is better.
-
The top 10 is probably untouchable to Breslow except for Sandlin. Fitts is needed for next season so he's not going elsewhere. They could probably move any prospect from 11 on though I doubt they move very young starters like Portes. I wouldn't be that surprised if they moved a guy like Elmer Rodriguez as he's going to Rule 5 eligible after next season and is repeating Salem again for the second time.
-
Not sure his value is very high. Would the Sox be happy with a reliever or a mediocre prospect?
-
They were set to trade Betts during the 2019 season, but the Sox went on a mini streak and Dombrowski decided to keep him around.
-
Alonso is a bigger get than what Schwarber was at the time. Schwarber was injured and missed a few weeks.
-
I'm not so sure about that. I think the plan is to spend up to the the luxury cap. Henry wants the Sox to make moves at the deadline IF they are in it. He was frustrated at the inaction at the previous two deadlines from what I heard.
-
I thought the rumor was Rafaela?
-
And they get to celebrate his 28th birthday with him this September. A shame it couldn't happen sooner. If it takes Roman Anthony that long, he'll be in his third organization by then.
-
Provide value sure. However, he's overpaid and they should have just went year to year with him. Defensive guys don't get big ARB deals.
-
Aside from Bello and Casas, Duran had the highest trade value for an MLB player. Of course he'd be a topic of trade discussions. I'd trade all three of them for the right return.
-
To get a starting pitcher. Sure. Let's get a top of the rotation starter.
-
What are they getting back?
-
Ok.
-
Well, now he can get blue balls from waiting for prospects that never pan out.
-
I think Xander, Eovaldi and others are lesser issues. Mookie is what put this franchise on a downward spiral for 4 or more years.
-
If Red Sox nation was polled, what % would be upset that the Sox didn't do whatever it took to keep Mookie? 75%? More? Less?
-
Fans only care insomuch that the owner seems to overly care about the budget in ways that he never did before.
-
According to SoxProspects: The following players burned their 2024 player option Bobby Dalbec Wikelman Gonzalez Vladimir Gutierrez Tyler Heineman Joe Jacques Zack Kelly Luus Perales Naoyuki Uwasawa Brandon Walter Josh Winckowski
-
I don't think they used an option on Grissom yet. He was in AAA on rehab which doesn't count against options.
-
There isn't enough trade value for Yorke at the moment. He's a diminished defensive guy who may figure it out offensively. Better to hold onto him. Jordan is a guy with light tower power who has never done it in game. I don't think he has any trade value. I don't see the point in trading any of them. I think you probably add Yorke to the 40 man and see if Jordan gets picked in the Rule 5, but I don't think it happens.
