That's true, but if we lose Devers, you'll have a hard time finding a comp for the Red Sox losing 3 players like Betts, Bogaerts and Devers at the ages they stopped playing for us... In fact you might have to look at the Expos to find a comp for this.
-
Case closed then.
-
Betts is the only one of the three who's a "complete player".
-
We can't assume anything. But is there anyone who struggles more to get on the field than Paxton?
-
Might be.
-
If we're getting back under this year, going over last year doesn't matter much.
-
Agree in general, but not sure what the Xander who? thing is about. Can't we appreciate what a good player and quality guy he is?
-
Might be good.
-
Bigly.
-
It did quickly enter my head.
-
No doubt. Anyway, I can see knocking the Rangers for overpaying, but if I was a Rangers fan I wouldn't be complaining about major efforts to make the team relevant. Not to mention coming up with that much money...
-
Not sure if serious.
-
If we confine it to trading JD, I might agree. Reportedly Bloom did shop JD, but did not get any offers he liked. Also reported he was asking for a lot.
-
You think something has changed?
-
Xander Bogaerts has signed with San Diego Padres

Can we make it two in a row on Bloom signing guys we're asking for? Seems like a tall order... -
Let's see how it goes this year, though, after adding deGrom and Eovaldi. It makes them a more palatable team to watch, at least. And should boost their gross revenues.
-
Nope, not happening. I know you're not a betting man, though.
-
He's also in the band Sloan, who are from here in Halifax.
-
The Yankees were over in 2022. They would have to reset in 2024.
-
Well, the Rangers are adding some pretty good players. They're just wicked expensive.
-
The Mets can't reset, and I predict the Yankees do not reset. They are over by $56 million this year. It'll be virtually impossible to get back under.
-
Wacha will get less than Kluber.
-
That was announced a while ago. MLBTR seems to have 3 separate announcements for each signing now.
-
Wacha also had a 5.57 ERA in September with a .941 OPS and 8 dingers allowed in 32.1 innings. It appears he either ran out of gas or his luck started to go the other way.
-
So can losing money. If you're going to argue that Henry's spending might be affected by the $8 million buyout to JBJ, you can't ignore the effect of attendance and viewership. If it wasn't for the fans, payrolls could have been a lot lower over the years and we might have fewer titles.
