  1. The lux tax consequences of adding a lot of payroll are pretty significant for the Yanks.
  2. The buzz on Fried is that the Yankees are in on him bigly. If the Yanks sign Fried in the next few days, Red Sox Nation will really start getting restless.
  3. Is that legal? Something that wink-wink nudge-nudge seems to represent a form of tampering. But maybe the rules allow it. Or maybe it's one of those rules that gets flouted and no one cares. I have no idea.
  4. Bieber too! https://www.si.com/mlb/guardians/news/boston-red-sox-tried-hard-to-steal-star-cleveland-guardians-shane-bieber
  5. We are the Interest Kings, and it's going to be hard for any team to take that crown from us without a fight!
  6. Yes I know. I just think not all "surplus values" are created equal. Juan Soto might be showing a negative surplus value right now because the Mets overpaid...
  7. Hamilton having greater surplus value than Castillo seems to be a case that shows BTV doesn't always function very well in the real world. Mainly because Hamilton's sample size is tiny.
  8. Career OPS+ Ted Williams 191 Juan Soto 160 As good as Soto is, Williams was 20% better.
  9. Quite possible the Mets re-sign Alonso. Sox need to focus on guys the Mets aren't interested in. 😛
  10. But is that inflation rate across the board for player salaries, or just for the top contracts?
  11. Yeah, I got some bad info there! The Soto thing is melting my brain.
  12. Latest rumors are not promising. Sounding like it's down to New York/New York.
  13. These things happen when you're covering the Interest Kings.
  14. What do you consider a miss? He's not making predictions, just reporting credible rumors.
  15. As much as I trust any Red Sox source, sure. He has a good track record of only reporting stuff that's real.
  16. It's all debatable, but Duran is the only one who has proven himself at the MLB level, and there's still 4 years of control. Mayer must be #6.
  17. + Snell (signed), Teoscar, Bellinger.
  18. This seems like a much faster paced off season than normal.
  19. Starting to think Soto is nothing but a greedy SOB, so... SIGN THE MAN!
  20. Less total money, but the risk of 2 large deals for starting pitchers with a 3 at the start of their age is too much.
  21. It's unspendable money whichever offer he takes now. I think it has to come down to where Soto really wants to play and live the next dozen years or so.
  22. Vlad is only under contract for 2025, so any trade would have to be followed up with a hefty extension offer if you want the man long-term.
