I'll worry about keeping players around once they show they can actually make a push for staying in playoff contention.
-
Ok, so they aren't question marks for '24, but they are both out the door at the end of the season and the slots will be question marks for '25 which is a year when they should be even better than in '24. I don't think they have a shot at a title in '24. They can be better than 78 wins, but they are still on the outside looking in. Best use of those two guys for the org may be to help the org in a long term manner.

Game 1: Kershaw got smoked Game 2: Zac Gallen is a great pitcher and quieted the bats Game 3: Lance Lynn puts them in a hole and DBags do the bullpen gimmick to keep the Doyers off balance

Houck's spot in 2023 was in the rotation. Next year, it will be as closer. A FA or trade acquisition will take over for the rotation spot.
-
I'm always just first to push the big red button anyway.
-
Molitor, Larkin and Konerko were considered for player-coach roles at various points, but none of them actually got hired.
-
I think you can put in Houck as a closer in get similar to Jansen effectiveness. I think you can sign a FA reliever to take Martin's spot and get a lesser arm, but ultimately someone who helps your pen and is better than the other guys you currently have.
-
Trading two players each on one year deals is not a tear down or a rebuild.
-
I'm not sure trading two relievers is a teardown. I think you can simply replace Jansen with an inhouse guy and get a FA to replace Martin's spot.
-
I wouldn't because there is a risk of injury or reduced effectiveness.
-
I agree. If someone isn't here long term, they would have some value on the open market. Sox probably aren't a WS contender even if they are an outside playoff hopeful. May as well deal for a long term contributor.

Was Pete Rose the last one?
-
Well, he’s no longer on the 40 man bubble.
-
Wouldn’t do Mayer for Soto.
-
Kaleb Ort DFA'd. Eddie Romero did what Bloom was unable to do.
-
No, but think of the marketing opportunities.
-
Seems like a lot, but if the Sox are extending him it's a good deal to me.
-
Who benefits from the Nate going back to BOS story being out there? This came out prior to the firing.
-
It's only convoluted because you believe it's convoluted. You believe Bloom wouldn't turn Eovaldi away for some reason. You believe Bloom wouldn't second guess himself. You believe him to be a decisive decision maker for some reason.
-
Jose Abreu stinks, so I'm glad he didn't get his man in that case.
-
Bonaci has been removed from the AFL.
-
Waiver deadline for Rule 5 draft is November 14.
-
There was a resurgence for big Al in 2015, but I think that has waned by now.
-
I liked DD and I like hot peppers. No problem from me.

Complete 180 from DESPERATE DAVE.
