    Okay, that’s 3 guys. Now the vote totals show over half.
  2. moonslav59
    Even if Myers turns into one of Blooms famed reclamation success stories, it’s still a bad deal for the Sox, unless they kick in some talent.
  3. moonslav59
    I said Beni in CF, Myers in LF and JBJ in RF.
  4. moonslav59
    I agree, but when I suggested we should offer him $350M/12 and seettle on $350M/10, last summer and fall, it seemed like just about everyone said I was nuts.
  5. moonslav59
    But, it felt, to me, like the mood was $350/10 was too much money and way too many years.
  6. moonslav59
    Right or wrong, the Padres keep acting like they think they can win with "one more bid addition." Betts is not a salary dump, so they shouldn't treat him like one by demanding we take Myers and pay a big chunk of his contract.
  7. moonslav59
    I doubt in Fenway.
  8. moonslav59
    Yes, and he's gone next year, so we'll have more money freed up to make a solid run for Betts.
  9. moonslav59
    That's how I view it. I'd hate to see Myers in our OF. LF might be tolerable, but then moving Beni to CF would be cringeworthy. Imagine an OF or Myers, Beni and JBJ in RF.
  10. moonslav59
    Very encouraging after several down years in an area we used to excel at. 3 in the top 50 is very nice.
  11. moonslav59
    I'm surprised more than half the votes are for $350/10 or $375/12 or more. So far.
  12. moonslav59
    5.0 Sale seems encouraging, but the article says "I'd take the under." 3.3 ERod 3.0 Price (WOW!)
  13. moonslav59
    Price pretty much cancels out Betts, so unless we take back salary (Pollock & Kelly have negative value- Pederson has 1 year at plus value), I wouldn't expect much in return.
  14. moonslav59
    Sorta true, but I'd trade Price for Myers straight up. I'd probably trade Eovaldi for Pollock, too, assuming Betts or JBJ are traded. They are both owed about the same, but Pollock's AVV is $12M to Eovaldi's $17M.
  15. moonslav59
    With no Betts (and or JBJ), I'd rather have Pollock and his contract than Eovaldi and his contract. If we bring Betts back, Pollock plays CF.
  16. moonslav59
    Workman is a FA after 2020, and trading Betts is further punting the season away for the future. I'm just adding to the futute. Barnes has 2 years left and his stock dropped. Adding him was questionable but not illogical.
  17. moonslav59
    Betts, Eovaldi, Barnes, Workman' for Myers, Patino, Lucchesi, Weathers, Margot
  18. moonslav59
    Betts, Eovaldi, Barnes & Workman for Pollock, Kelly, May, Gonsolin & Cartaya
  19. moonslav59
    Yes, but why would we ask/demand he be part of the deal, especially if we have POllock as part of the deal. Adding Joc makes us nit get under the lux tax.
  20. moonslav59
    I'd rather hire him as our manager.
  21. moonslav59
    Joc is a glorified platoon player with one year of team control. If we ask for more, why a 1 year and done guy? This trade gives up on 2020, so Joc is useless.
  22. moonslav59
    Of course, they don't, but taking Eovaldi lessens what they have to give back, and Betts gives them like 6 OF'ers, so the contract swap of Eovaldi for Pollock makes sense to both teams.
  23. moonslav59
    Pollock has negative value.
  24. moonslav59
    Not saying I like this deal, but the site accepted this one, too: Betts, Barnes, Workman & Duran for May, Gonsolin & Cartaya
  25. moonslav59
    To me, this deal makes sense: Betts, Eovaldi & Workman for Pollock, Gonsolin, Stripling & Cartaya In reality, we may get this, at best: Betts for Gonsolin, Stripling & Cartaya (The trade simulator accepted both deals.)
