They are all "make believe" pitchers.
-
I'm not sure it matters.
-
Yes, I read that in the article I found. He chose to not get paid. I still think it makes the trade look better, along with Verdugo shining brightly.

Sox OPS after tonight's game: (1.177 Moreland) 1.118 Dalbec 1.040 Munoz .884 Verdugo .869 Bogaerts .864 Devers .836 Plawecki (.795 Pillar) .761 JBJ .717 Vazquez .672 JD Martinez .622 Chavis .617 Peraza .547 Arauz .546 Arroyo .478 Lin .478 Beni

I read Price gave up the $12M (pre-rated pay) to opt out. He gets nothing, this year.
-
True, but not paying $16 or $32M due to him opting out makes the deal look better. Do players who opted out really get nothing at all?

baseballtradevalues.com has Devers ranked 24th in MLB... 24. Devers 83.9 26. Moncada 83.6 47. Verdugo 62.3 118. Bogaerts 33.7 136. F Montas 30.6 153. M Kopech 27.9 156. J Downs 26.4 183. T Casas 22.2 216. Dalbec 19.7 238. Chavis 17.6 284. Vazquez 14.4 313. Mata 12.4 319. Duran 12.1 365. D Hernandez 10.5 367. E Rodriguez 10.5 414. J Taylor 8.5 415. Jimenez 8.5 522. Lugo 6.0 547. Perez 5.6 ... Betts 5.4 JD M -8.6 Price -11.8 Sale -20.0 Eovaldi -21.0

Does that mean we paid nothing, at all? If so, I like the fact we dumped him even more.
-
Cots shows $16M for 2020. I figured $217M minus $48M ($16M x 3)
-
So, to change subjects, if you look at the Price trade as a push- not needed as part of the Betts trade, we basically end up paying him $169M/4. That's over $42M a year for 4 years.
-
Good points, but I still feel the same as Kimmi on this issue.
-
I could see us rolling the dice with Chavis, Arauz, Lin, Chatham and Peraza and using all available resources for pitching and OF.
-
Star not "stars "(Devers).
-
I doubt we trade any of the future for a 1 year pitcher.
-
Aristides Aquino
-
It looks like we called him up precisely at the right time.
-
Yes, this was just a possible starting framework. Chances are we leave some budget room for the summer. We may even not spend large, this winter, but I think we will. We could spend big on someone like Springer, then go for a SP'er the following winter.
-
We may have about $70M to spend this winter- maybe $90M, if Henry allows the budget to get up close to the second line. Could we see the money spent this way? $20-30M #1 or #2 SP'er $12-18M Closer $6-9M RP'er $6-9M CF'er $5-8M RP'er $5-8M SP'er $5-8M RP'er $3-6M 4th OF'er $3-6M 2B/Utility IF Or, more like this: $25-30M SP $16-20M Closer $10-12M RP'er $10-12M CF'er $8-10M RP/SP'er
-
You seem to know about his early life.
-
I agree, but we may spend a little on a vet 2B who may double as a back up SS, 3B and/or OF. We may also just roll the dice on Chavis, Arauz, Lin & Chatham holding down the position until Downs is ready, if he ever is.
-
Plus, Peak Sale lasted longer, or at least a longer stretch of uninterrupted greatness, than Peak Eck. Sale was top dog (or #2) for 6-7 straight years.
-
His mama.
-
I doubt either is on the big roster before June... more likely September.
-
Agreed, and the league could force teams to spend more on player budgets or face steep penalties (or sell).

These years are, to me... Year NYY BOS '03 153 100 (53%) '04 183 125 (30% more) '05 206 121 (70% more) '06 194 120 (62% more '07 190 143 (33% more) '08 209 134 (56% more) '09 201 123 (63% more) '13 229 151 (52% more!)
