  1. Wouldn’t that make it a $42.5 mill tax hit?
  2. That’s hardly a secret. As secrets go, it’s about as well known as Victoria’s...
  3. Bauer to the Dodgers. Schoop, much to moon’s chagrin, is staying in Detroit...
  4. I think he starts in Worcester, but someone will get hurt and he will get some MLB at-bats...
  5. Universal DH does raise the pay grade of 15 existing ones...
  6. Good to see the Sox are still active on this front. Although I have my suspicions it will not amount to much...
  7. The buzz on Odorizzi has dried up completely. What does a former All Star starting pitcher need to do to get some love?
  8. Hoping he calls enough RP to at least push Valdez down to Worcester and Brice into free agency...
  9. Nobody counts Chavis. I'm not sure he will even be on the roster come April. And Moreland and JD should never play the OF again...
  10. That's not much of a threat. If they do not hear in time, who are they going to move on to? If they say the deadline is 4pm today, and Bauer's agent calls them tomorrow or Sunday and says they have a deal, you can bet Bauer is headed to the Mets...
  11. The Ozuna market is heating up, and the only teams mentioned are the Rays and Braves. Yes, the Rays. Bloom -make some damn calls here!
  12. If they sign Moreland and another OF, they would have 5 players on the roster with OF experience, as they would have the new OF, Benintendi, Verdugo, Renfroe and Hernandez. That seems to be sufficient depth. If they sign Miller, he has played both corner OF spots, albeit unspectacularly...
  13. And Puig might be the most likely OF to join the Sox. He won't be expensive. He can play RF, and so far, unlike Bradley, is not demanding anything long term...
  14. I'd rather see Moreland come back, but I get the appeal of Brad Miller or Gonzalez. But to me, Marwin Gonzalez has never shown he ca be any sort of "bat" unless someone is swinging at a trash can...
  15. Well I was wrong about Travis Shaw for a couple years. Until he turned back into a pumpkin. Maybe Ockimey has a season or two of non-pumpkin baseball...
  16. Too late. Wrote him off. In ink...
  17. Bauer to the Dodgers now. Book it...
  18. I would normally be on board with Puello (or Michael Gettys) as a 4th outfielder, but I have my doubts that Bloom (or anyone in the organization) thinks Hunter Renfroe is a full time player. And it's not like they paid him as if they expected him to be one. They have been connected with numerous other outfielders so far, including Bradley, Puig, Ozuna and Marwin Gonzalez (if you think of him as on OF). So I am not so sure they are done here. And big no to Ockimey. Why when a LHH bench bat can be had cheaply, and the Sox have been connected to Moreland and Gonzalez and probably been in touch with others. And it is a safe bet anyone the Sox sign will be better than Ockimey...
  19. Are you saying it happened or just predicting? I cannot find this actually happening anywhere...
  20. With about 100 players or so still looking for jobs, it is hard to say as no one really knows what any final roster will look like. I have serious doubts about the Sox signing Odorizzi after bringing on Garrett Richards, but I still think they will bring in at least one outfielder and a bench bat. And if they take advantage of some bargain relievers like Romo and Workman on top of that, they will not be a bad team. Maybe not a title team, but a team we can all watch and get some enjoyment from for 6 months...
  21. There is a significant amount of irony in hearing about the durability of smaller players from the fan of a team with two behemoths in Stanton and Judge that have both proven to be incapable of staying on the field in recent years...
  22. Let's not go too far down this road for obvious reasons...
  23. St. Louis was might have been better off waiting and dumping him for a quarter on the dollar. Getting Vaz would have been good for them, but they have sufficient OF depth with Bader, O'Neill and Lane Thomas already..
  24. Unless they use that month to vaccinate 10 million people...
  25. They did. But once you bring up Harper and Trout, is that really in the ballpark anymore? If he wanted to be paid among the best in the game, was 4th best good enough?
