    Just about every possibility is on the table at the moment.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Is that different from "questionable"?
  3. Bellhorn04
    Devers? Thou art a madman.

    The Padres soaked him, no doubt. But by the same token, the Yanks soaked Theo for Chapman.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I don't know, a year is pretty stiff in itself. And it's not like the punishment is going to be exactly in proportion to the severity of the offense. It's pretty arbitrary.
  6. Bellhorn04
    You're itching for a fire sale.
  7. Bellhorn04
    I know.
  8. Bellhorn04
    I know. Why would I think his salary is "plus $50 mill"?
  9. Bellhorn04
    Trade simulator has him at plus $50 mill, no?

    Trading Mookie straight up for a prospect is the easiest way to re-set by far.
  11. Bellhorn04
    And Betts and JBJ are the only ones who would be true rentals.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I realize that. And I'm quite comfortable in saying the probability of Betts being traded is remote at this point.
  13. Bellhorn04
    It ain't happening. JH has now gone out of his way to assure everyone that the priority is being competitive this year.
  14. Bellhorn04
    That's a tenuous comparison.
  15. Bellhorn04
    In any case, by now it should be obvious Mookie is staying put.
  16. Bellhorn04
    If you want a re-set, calling up Rusney is the last thing you want. He'd tack on about 12 million to the payroll for tax purposes.
  17. Bellhorn04
    If they don't get under $208 million before the season starts, it's pretty unlikely they can do it at the trade deadline. Cot's Contracts has us at $17.6 million over right now-and theirs is the lowest projection. Even trading both Mookie and JBJ at the deadline would only reduce our number by about $12.7 million.
  18. Bellhorn04
    There are plenty of people who can walk around but have severe chronic pain. I don't think it's fair to make assumptions about what he feels like.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Of course they did. And if the Sox put Betts and/or Price on the block it's pretty obvious the two things are connected.
  20. Bellhorn04
    No, based on what Olney reported, it's because Bloom's ask was this: take Mookie and Price, give us top prospects and get no salary relief. So they weren't really trying to trade him unless somebody was crazy enough to do that deal.
  21. Bellhorn04
    None of us have any idea what sort of pain or mobility issues he's been having.
  22. Bellhorn04
    So how come Mookie isn't traded already?
  23. Bellhorn04
    Agreed.
  24. Bellhorn04
    This is just a total fallacy. Resetting the tax rate does not mean we can pay Mookie $400 million.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, but the reason you're picking on Pedroia is that he got injured and can't play. There are many other pro athletes who make even more money than him. So is your rant aimed at all them too?
