I probably would. I've always liked Urquidy, but he's not really an answer for our need for a top of rotation SP'er. BTV accepted this one: Rafaela, Dugo, Dalbec, Walter & Lugo for Lopez, Berti, A Garcia (salary dump) and Cooper We get a solid SP'er, DH/ RF'er, a Kike-type player in Berti who can also lead-off and a swap of change of environments of Bobby D for Cooper. They get salary relief, a nice promising SP'er and OF'er and a solid LF'er. Lugo and Dalbec have some promise. It all depends on how much they want to cut salary. If you take A Garcia away, we'd probably have to give Mayer not Rafaela.

It's natural to want to compare him to Suzuki, and in some ways it makes sense, but they are two different players. Lot's of potential, here. He's only 29. (Turns 30 in July) He might turn out better than Nimmo. No lost comp pick. It's hard to have an opinion on this move. It's bold. 5 years is not too long. $18M AAV is not too large. My first impression is a good one. Low Ks High BBs High and consistent BA .321 '18 .323 '19 .351 '20 .339 '21 .336 '22 The power is not great, but he did have 29 HRs one year and 75 XBHs another year. Gotta take someone's word on his defense.
-
Maybe they trade Dugo or he can DH/4th OF'er.
-
As was Wallace by some. I don't think anyone expected 3 Sox players selected. I meant what I said. What I said has merit.
-
I thought Rule 5 players had to be on the 26 man roster a certain amount of time, of they are returned- no excuses, even 60 day IL.
-
The Jansen signing was not talked about, either. Bloom going stealth.

Updated (in tax dollars): 25.6 Sale 23.2 Story 18.0 Yoshida 16.0 Jansen 10.0 Kike 9.4 Barnes 8.8 Martin 4.7 Whitlock 4.0 Paxton 2.0 J Rodriguez 1.2 Refsnyder Arb Estimates 16.5 Devers 5.5 Verdugo 5.3 Pivetta 3.0 Arroyo 2.5 Brasier 2.1 McGuire 1.0 Taylor 7.7 0-3 yr players 1.7 0-3 yr bonus pool 2.3 minor league players 16.5 player benefits 192.6 Total (based on cots) 40.3 under the tax line Enough for maybe 2-3 from this list... 26-30 Bogey or 9-11 Andrus 14-17 Nate 10-13 Kluber 9-11 Conforto or Gallo
-
If he's not on their active roster for a certain time, he'll be returned.
-
Our farm was better and deeper than we thought. Hope we don't get burned.
-
The first offer was "low balling!" LOL
-
Big move! Fingers are crossed!

Rule 5 Draft 1. Thad Ward (BOS) to Nats 2. Ryan Noda (LAD) to A's 3. Jose Hernandez (LAD) to PIT 4. Blake Sabol (PIT) to CIN 5. KCR pass 6. Mason Englert (TEX) to DET 7. Tex Pass 8. Kevin Kelly (CLE) to COL (traded to TBR) 9. Nic Enright (CLE) to MIA 10-14 Pass (LAA, AZ, Cubs, MN, BOS) ... 17. Andrew Politi (BOS) to BAL ... 20. Noah Song (BOS) to PHI ... WOW! Three Sox players selected.
-
LAD said to be out of Correa hunt.
-
Thad Ward first taken in Rule 5 by Nats. Sox passed on seelctions.
-
So can the guys on this list.
-
A Devers extension would help, but I'd still be disappointed with the rest. We'd basically have the same team with a better pen and Conforto> JBJ/Duran. We'd be praying for near total health and improvements from Dalbec/Hosmer, Dugo & Kike and some serious input from the kids. Lots of moving parts all needing to sync at once.
-
Maybe we sign Seth Lugo and move Houck to the rotation. (Maybe just add Rich Hill.)
-
What's your upper limit? I wouldn't be too upset with $200M/8, but I'm thinking it might take more, these days. He probably gets $225M/8
-
3D for Alex Call? Rodolfo Castro? Seth Brown? Garret Cooper? Jesse Winker? Nate Eaton?
-
BTV accpeted: Rafaela, Verdugo, Dalbec, Walter & Lugo for Rogers (SP 4 yrs remaining) Berti (RF 3 yrs) Soler (LF 2 yrs- salary dump) Cooper (1B/DH 1 yr)
-
It looks like probably Gallo or Conforto, unless we trade for a RF'er. Bogey or Andrus? (Maybe Swanson?) Vazquez and/or a DH? Nate or Kluber? Is this the best we can expect, at this point?
-
Dalbec and Duran for Garret Cooper? Rafaela, Dalbec & Duran for Keller (PIT)? Dalbec or Hosmer for Winker?
-
How about a 3-D trade? Dalbec, Downs and Duran for role player.
-
Word is we are shopping Dalbec, so maybe we look for a RH'd DH + any 1 or more from 1B/LF/RF type?
-
The $$$ amount/ years does not matter?
