    If he's better, then that's why you do it.
  2. mvp 78
    I guess it's time to make a Mark Langston stan account and go bother some people...
  3. mvp 78
    By giving them a large FMV contract.
  4. mvp 78
    Bowden is a scumbag who doesn't know what he's talking about. Not sure why the Athletic gave him a job.
  5. mvp 78
    Kutter and Whitlock for Burnes.
  6. mvp 78
    Excellent...
  7. mvp 78
    Aside from providing innings, does he give the Red Sox anything better than what they currently have? I'm not sure and he's going to be expensive.

    Giolito had a bit of shine for a while, but he's had two straight years of YUCK. If they are signing him he'd be another 5th starter, but with more upside. He would probably be an overpaid 5th starter though. His peripherals aren't great either. Flaherty is probably a much cheaper option than Giolito, but you have to go even further back to find him being productive. He COULD be better than Kutter, but I think I'd rather just use money spent on Flaherty towards the top of the rotation instead. Just get two really good to great pitchers please.

    Some people out here think they are fact checked as much as anyone, but really I'm the truly the MOST fact checked poster even though I take weekends off!

    If they are going to trade for a pitcher, they need to extend them no matter what. Otherwise, why would the be trading for them?
  11. mvp 78
    Snell has had 2 CY seasons and a bunch of other years where he can't break 130 innings. I don't want him at all. Can we do Burnes and Monty?
  12. mvp 78
    No, they drafted Yorke early to spend bigger later. They had no clue that Blaze would still be around then. It could have been any number of big $ prospects in that spot.
  13. mvp 78
    If they are going to overpay, I don't know if Cease is the guy I'd do it for. His velo was also down last season. CLE said they won't trade Beiber. Not sure if the Rays would trade within the division. Burnes has the true aces potential and seems like the best fit to me too.
  14. mvp 78
    I believe Duran has considerable trade value as does Yorke (due to proximity to MLB). Perales is a bigger unknown as he's further away. Cease can come in and be a #2 at least for a few years. I'm not sure Perales gets there. He's probably a #4 or bullpen piece, but has a chance at being better. It is an overpay, but I'm not saying I wouldn't overpay to fix this s***** rotation especially as names are taken off the FA market (if that makes sense).

    First offseason with a GM who has never been GM before. We are again in uncharted territory. FULL THROTTLE.
  16. mvp 78
    Severino hasn't been relevant since '18. Montas has been better much more recently.
  17. mvp 78
    It's an overpay of a trade IMO.
  18. mvp 78
    Eloy is never gonna get to 162 games unless you're counting multiple seasons.
  19. mvp 78
    Montas was back to throwing 95-96 when he pitched in AAA in September after coming back.
  20. mvp 78
    I'd be much more interested if the Sox added Montas as the #5. ERod Stroman Bello Sale Montas I can talk myself into that rotation for sure. Winning a WS? IDK. I agree that they probably need some sort of ace.
  21. mvp 78
    Bailey worked with Llovera in SF, so Crag will have a good idea what to do with him soon.
  22. mvp 78
    10 starts if he's in the opening day pen. 20+ if he's in the rotation on opening day.
  23. mvp 78
    Instead of Yamamoto, they sign ERod and Stroman? They are basically signing two mid to upper rotation guys? It's good. I don't believe it's a WS rotation at all. If that's the goal, they aren't getting there this year.
  24. mvp 78
    They've said in the past that it has been a factor, but it's not supposed to be a factor this offseason. If it is a factor, why the duplicity?
  25. mvp 78
    I ignored Bauer and Clevinger, but not because of their baseball talent.
