No, the only thing that changed was the CBT implications. Henry could spend with any of these guys if he wanted. If he's not doing it, it's because of a business decision (possibly faulty).
The field was always the same. I don't know who thought only one or two teams would want the best pitcher on the market, especially when they are only 25. That guy should be sought after by 6-7 teams.
Would you rather be a Rangers fan who won the World Series this year or a Red Sox fan wearing a Yu Chang jersey!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Tell Old Red now damnit!!!!!!!!

Cherington said via TribLIVE’s Kevin Gorman. “Also shared with them that we’re trying to win here as fast as we possibly can.”
Cherington also said in a separate clip, “The only message is what we’ve already said. And that is that we want to win as fast as we possibly can. … We are all focused on winning as fast as we possibly can. We all have a role in that. It certainly starts with me. I’ve got to do my job. Everybody in the clubhouse has to do their job. That’s our focus.”
Maybe if the Dodgers WS wasn't the 2020 season it'd make sense, but they only time they won was a year that fans couldn't show up? That's what you want to hang your hat on?
Right, that's why I want to see if the new focus on velo can get additional MPH out of the 19 year old. He's young so it's not unheard of to add velo, but 89-91 isn't going to cut it.
A second Charlie Zink has hit the Boston Red Sox.
@TheBeatwriter
There will be another Charlie Zink in @RedSox uniform.
The Boston Red Sox signed P Charlie Zink from Curazao, last night in Medellin, Colombia. He is 17 years old.
Lugo was really good last season. I'm not sure if he can replicate it this year. Unfortunately, I'm not sure he's that much of an improvement from Paxton IMO.
