I don't think Sandoval is that good so I'm not interested in him. My worry is that they hold onto Masa, sign Soler, and Masa's overuse in LF causes his 2nd year bump to be lower than we'd like. They should probably deal Jansen if they are bringing back additional SP's and pushing Houck/Whitlock to the bullpen. He's not a long term commitment.

I'll come with the Sunday coupons!
-
Excellent!!!
-
They already had Kelenic, why would they want Duran???
-
I'd extend Casas, but wouldn't extend Bello. I'd consider offering an extension to Teel or Anthony at the end of this season.
-
They heard Carrabis didn't want to MC.
-
I can't say that I know any of the prospects in 1-4 so hard to judge those trades. Tempting to dump that contract even tough I believe he should bounce back this season. As for 5: No to Cabrera Ok on the Luzardo trade 1, 2 and 4

"At the very least, even if you don’t agree with BTV, it’s a good tool to make you stop and think what exactly is making up the value of a player and the entire package that comes along with it. I’ve said many times that BTV is not the end all be all, but it’s good tool to help the bridge the gap in understanding player values and how trades can be responsibly created." - Robbie Hyde

That's only cause they fired your boy Bloom!

The Angels Way TM.

And there ain't nuthin' wrong with our bull s***ing anyway.
-
They also said Winckowski will be stretched out.
-
That's what the market bears. Pitching is EXPENSIVE. You pay in cash or in players.
-
I disagree. He'd rather keep the prospects and run them through the system to play in BOS so that he doesn't have to pay FA in future years. If he trades 3 guys for one pitcher, he'll spend more later on more likely.
-
I don't think Rafaela or Abreu have anything left to learn in AAA. They need to be given a shot to play in MLB somewhere.
-
He's also a RHB!
-
What is the incentive for another team to dump top pitching prospects unless the Sox overpay?
-
Mid.
-
Now that would be a very EXPENSIVE trade to make. $$$ would be cheap, but the trade cost would be heavy.
-
If you trade Mayer, Rafaela is the backup SS in case of Story injury. After that, it's years before another SS will sniff the majors from the farm. At least SS's are cheap on the FA market. I know they are shopping Story, which would mean they'd be holding onto Mayer long term and shopping Duran and Rafaela instead. Abreu just doesn't have the same trade caché.
-
Gio didn’t want 100M. Gio at least has MLB experience and success.
-
Too tired.
-
And yet they are stuck managing Duran and Masa, two very flawed players in their OF. Maybe Rafaela figures out how to hit and Duran is expendable? Maybe the Sox add an additional RHB for one of the corner OF positions (not Refsnyder because he can't field or hit RHP)? The goal should be to get the OF to be average and then go from there.
-
I wouldn't say the 2013 team was loaded, but ok. This team is clearly not going to be loaded in 2024. The owners don't want it to be.
-
Yes, the Sox can put up a better defensive OF than the Yanks this year. No, they can't compete offensively with their OF.
