Maybe we are or have tried hard to lock Devers up. Vaz has 2 years of control left to go. He's been up and down almost exactly from year to year. I don't see any hurry with him.
-
I don't think it's all that complicated. Every major move he has made had valid reasoning behind them, whether we agree or not.
-
Velazquez at least looked good at times.
-
I wonder why Jacko didn't start this thread.

My first "man crush" was on Tommy Harper, while I lived just blcoks from County Stadium in Milwaukee. He was one of the first 30-30 players in MLB. When they traded him to Boston near the time we moved to Maine, I switched to being a Sox fan. (It's all his fault!) I loved Tiant, Lee, Burleson and Lynn. I was a big Cha Cha Cepeda, Oil Can Boyd, Burks and Evans fan early on, too. Tom Gordon, Greg Harris, Rich "El Guapo" Garces, Alex Gonzalez, Pedro, VTek, Mueller, Nava, Uehara Most recently, JBJ & Leon and of course, Devers.

I like Velazquez more than several players on the 40 man roster, now, but I'm not pretending to know more than the Sox brass. He still has options left, so I prefer him over Brice & Lin. I also like him more than Shawaryn and Weber, who both have multiple options remaining. I don't know enough about Phillips Valdez, Chris Mazza and Matt Hallto make a choice. I'm not complaining with this post- just mildly surprised by the choice of HV. Maybe they think he has the least chance of being picked up- due to his age, and he'll accept a minor league deal once he clears waivers.

Right after 2018. If they wait until June or July, it will be 18+ months from October/November 2018. If they wait until winter, it's 24+ months.
-
I like the signing way more than Buch.
-
Makes no sense- Henry approval or no approval. Now, if we are 5 games up in July, maybe spending could become an option, but that's a super duper long shot.
-
Putting it off for 18 months is what is asinine. Now, they may wait 20+ months.
-
If we end up going over, Bloom should be fired.
-
Velazquez DFA'd.

Sox still negotiating for Myers
moonslav59 replied to jacksonianmarch's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
He's actually not as bad as many think he is, and if he's used just vs LHPs, he's pretty good. Plus, I'm thinking he might be a Bloom gem that goes on to have a career year after we get him. (This doesn't mean I want him and his contract, but if we get something else with him, he can disappoint me, and we'll still be okay.) -
He's a Yankee fan and has that perspective. I don't view him as a "T".
-
He probably should have had the surgery at least a year ago.
-
Sounds right, but it seems like you only mention the gloomy possibilities when it comes to Sox injuries and rosy for Yankee players. Sometimes, it's about pain thresholds, too. Most pitchers feel some pain after every start, but they don't really have a serious issue. (I'm not saying Sale does not have a serious issue or that he is a woos, but pain is a tricky thing to gauge, at times.

Sox still negotiating for Myers
moonslav59 replied to jacksonianmarch's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
yes! 100% -
Does it ever look inflamed on MR but when you get in there, it looks okay or better than expected? (I'm not mocking you. I'm being serious.)
-
Who would that be? JD? JBJ? Eovaldi? (assuming he shows he's back) Barnes? Workman? Moreland?
-
I've suggested trading Chavis dozens of times, and I still would, if it was for another young player or prospect- preferably a pitcher. The problem is, what team will trade a good young pitcher for the next Middy?
-
Better to not trade youth for a lost season anyways. No deal should be made, unless it improves our chances in 2021 and beyond.
-
If the season begins to look lost, we could trade Workman, assuming he's still doing well, for a young pitcher. I doubt anyone gives a good young pitcher for Chavis or Dalbec, but who knows how much some GM values one of them. We could try trading Chavis and Houck for a better pitcher, but what team is looking to trade good young pitchers? (Hint: none.)

Did Andrews recommend surgery?
