  1. Hopefully only an MiLB deal...
  2. Gonzalez has been fairly mediocre outside of one year when he listened to a steady stream of banging garbage cans...
  3. Is he still active?
  4. I suspected they knew Ellsbury was leaving so they got their replacement when he was available rather than waiting..
  5. The ones worn by Bauer and/or Springer?
  6. True. Chalk me up as one who gets overly critical of many FA signings. But sometimes I will admit the failure is on the part of the player and not on the notion of bringing him to Boston. Carl Crawford was a massive flop, but I did understand why they signed him. Or at least I had my own completely unsupported theory as to why the move made sense...
  7. While true, there is still no denying the Rays Connection...
  8. Colome and Peacock? Maybe Yusmeiro Petit? He seems to be underrated and undervalued every season...
  9. If the ownership group is concerned about PR, they should be well aware the best way to create any positive PR would be to spend some $$$ on a couple free agents to improve the team. Fans like nothing more than hearing money is not going to be an obstacle to success...
  10. Much like Andriese? And Renfroe?
  11. He might be. I did not verify the health of anyone when I threw that list together. Devenski is another guy who always seems to be hurt...
  12. Why bother with the smokescreen? Only like 4 teams have been active, and all of them for short, hyperactive stretches only. I am not so sure Bloom or any GM is as obsessed with the timing of moves as much as us fans are. Or if he is, it's not in the same way...
  13. I'm sure his agent thinks his versatility should increase his AAV. but unless another team gets involved, not sure what other options he has. I think if they sign Kike, it's for 2B only. For some reason, I am still totally convinced Bloom i going to sign Brad Miller for a LHH utility role...
  14. Well, how good will he still be at age 38?
  15. Even if they are right, who play RF? And LF if Benintedi actually does get traded? Renfroe can handle one position, but then what? Cesar Puello? Puello is a bench player at best, and only a starter on a tanking team. And that is coming from his biggest (re: only) supporter...
  16. He's a good under the radar option who was easy to forget about because he has [played so many other positions...
  17. Oh God please no. Granted, Renfroe is better than anyone he brought in for 2020, since at least Renfroe can be considered a starting OF. But so far his only pitching additions (Andriese and Gossett) fit right in with last year's cast of castoffs...
  18. I don't mind the speculation, but I would like to know where the whole "Sox are not signing any outfielders" comes from. I wonder if they do a best RF list,will Verdugo also be on that?
  19. Maybe he still has Verdugo as a RF?
  20. Well, they are in no particular order. I guess my top 3 from that list are Hand, Rosenthal and, hmmm... Kela?
  21. Who cares what MLB.com says? they have Springer at number 3, and no one even knows where he will be playing this year. If he signs with one of these teams (like the Mets, who have repeatedly been attached to him), they have Nimmo on this list already. Will they both play CF?
  22. From where? I would think they have to, because right now we have only 3 outfielders and one of them is reportedly going to be dealt within the next 3 days.
  23. Hopefully. There are still a fwe good relievers out there. Soxprospects.com thinks the Sox need 1 reliever. but I would greatly prefer getting two. Some of the better ones still available include: Keone Kela Brad Hand Brad Peacock Trevor Rosenthal Brad Workman Kirby Yates Hector Rondon Chris Devenski Yusmeiro Petit Alex Colome Most of them have not had any public rumors attached yet. But then until yesterday, neither did Bradley...
  24. So Archie Bradley got 1 yr $6mill. His projected arb salary was $4.3 to $5.7 mill. The "discounted market" is looking less realistic with each passing day...
  25. His 2013 season with Boston was only worth 2.5 fWAR. He was worth more for Boston in 2010, when he was worth 3.3. His 2008 season was only worth 1.4 fWAR, but his 2009 was worth 3.3. He really peaked in 2005 through 2007, when he was worth 15.6 fWAR...
