Vic staying healthy in 2015 is pure fantasy. Even in 2013 he only started 117 regular season games and also missed a couple in the postseason. Now he's 2 years older coming off surgery.
You'd think that if Victorino is reasonably healthy and the Red Sox wanted to move him, they could find somebody who would take him if the Sox pay a chunk of the $13 million.
Well, you did say "Buchholz is trying to show everyone he can be an ace, and he's showing the opposite", although he has a 1.80 ERA, a 1.1 WHIP and a 6-1 K/BB.
Betts has looked great, but I'm not sure 'murdering Castillo' is accurate, since Castillo was hurt and is now 3 for 4 with a home run since he started playing.
They will not trade Betts, I'm quite sure.
Making a trade like that will always raise the question, why didn't you just sign a free agent pitcher when you had the chance?
One thing I read was that the movement on his pitches has all been side to side and not down. The implication was that if it stays that way he will suck donkey balls.
