    That's kind of a Catch-22. If Joe was that rational he wouldn't be debating with those guys instead of being here.

    Castillo's salary of course is a sunk cost, his only incremental cost would be tax & penalty-related.
  3. Bellhorn04
    a) There was a lot of uncertainty in January. The signing of JDM wasn't announced until Feb. 19. You don't know in January what your needs are going to be in July because of injuries or underperformance. c) Who are all these bargain pieces you keep talking about?
  4. Bellhorn04
    The one, the only. He always reveals himself within about 3 words.

    It's tough to just give up on a guy you've invested a lot in. I think he gets one more start and if it's another bad one, it'll be the phantom DL with a strained lower back muscle or something.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Lol
  7. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, it was pure garbage time. The cardinal rule is don't walk anybody, which they didn't.
  8. Bellhorn04
    It has proven to be a very favorable contract though.
  9. Bellhorn04
    He had a .75 ERA coming into the game. 'Tough crowd' is an understatement when it comes to these game threads.
  10. Bellhorn04
    You're kind of a sick man, Larry.
  11. Bellhorn04
    LOL I knew it was him right away too.
  12. Bellhorn04
    One thing that gets forgotten, though, is that it was Lucchino who nominated Theo for GM after Beane declined. They had worked together in Baltimore and San Diego.
  13. Bellhorn04
    I don't think he walks on water, but I think he's got a pretty nice track record.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Option 1 would be a landslide winner there.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Possibly worth noting in connection with this thread is that Twins center fielder Byron Buxton, winner of the 2017 Gold Glove and Fielding Bible awards, has been struggling so badly on offense this year that he's been optioned to AAA.

    San Diego was obviously holding out for a big package. Maybe DD could have whittled them down by one prospect if he waited them out. Or maybe someone else jumps in and gets Kimbrel. You're kind of making it sound like DD should have gotten Kimbrel for next to nothing.
  17. Bellhorn04
    And what about Kimbrel?
  18. Bellhorn04
    Not a full double whammy. Kimbrel's contract was actually below market considering what Chapman and Davis got. Maybe a 1.5 whammy...
  19. Bellhorn04
    Empty the magazine is a good way to put it.
  20. Bellhorn04
    I think it's mostly horseshit. Of course there have been some big mistakes, I'm not denying that. But if you're a long-term Red Sox fan and you're moaning and groaning about John Henry's stewardship of the team, you're basically a spoiled pussy. Stork is obviously not a Sox fan.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Other than Moustakas, what big bargains are you talking about?
  22. Bellhorn04
    I'm not really sure what you're saying. It's common for teams to wait until the July deadline to assess where they are and what their 'final needs' are. I'm suggesting that the Sox might be prepared to go a little over the limit and incur the penalties. You seem to be asking why didn't they go way over the limit already, like in the offseason, if they're prepared to go over by a little now.
  23. Bellhorn04
    He's a pretty solid bat, especially against lefties. I thought he was a good pickup.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Well, I have to admit, I'd prefer they didn't get De Grom.
  25. Bellhorn04
    No way he's a Sox fan.
