    If the Guardians do not want to pay $1 mill to buyout Hand, one has to wonder about the availability of Jose Ramirez ($9.4 mill). I think we can assume Lindor (~ $20mill) is also definitely out the door, but the Sox don't really need a SS right now...

    And what part of what you said means that Cash made all these decisions based on some computer data and not his gut? Maybe he used this strategy based on game 2, when Snell didn’t get anyone out third time up?
  3. notin
    Well, since no team traded for him, maybe teams don’t want him at that price and are willing to see what he gets as a free agent (and one without a Qualifying Offer)...

    If Hand clears waivers, that screams volumes about the free agent market this offseason....
  5. notin
    Except that not every blown save results in a loss....

    More shocking is that the Guardians did not (try to?) find a taker for Hand. I would think he was very tradable. Waiving/releasing him just saves them $1 million. Are some teams going to be that strapped for cash?

    No rimshot?

    I would say the chances of Perez' option being picked up are going down....

    Better than Rocket City Trash Pandas? I think not...

    Or possibly point out the value that can be found in minor league free agent Cash Case...

    Much like with Pete Carroll, who I still think made the right call. As I explained to my daughter when she was starting to play softball, sometimes you can do everything right and it still doesn't work out...

    No one said he was a complete player...

    I believe he prefers (Austin) Hedges...

    He's still worth a claim for the Sox. Hand has an arm...

    No more Spinners is just another reason to never go to Lowell...

    Potts was acquired for Moreland...

    No, I suggest moving him for another player so we can discuss trading Stock...

    So we're out of Stock options?
  20. notin
    There was a lot about Anderson that made him an odd choice. The only reason to use him is he had excelled all season as the high leverage/closer. But the counter to that was his recent struggles and his post-game admission that he was gassed. So did Cash value the longer history over the more recent one?

    Sure we get he decided before the game Snell saw the Dodgers twice, but game plans change on the fly all the time. Howeve, I do think that the last time Snell pitched, he was also throwing the game of his life, until he wasn't anymore. That Glasnow pitched more innings the game before really shows how short Snell's leash was...

    With all this talk of Stock and his options, this thread is turning into an economics class...
  23. notin
    Maybe. And maybe game 2, where Snell threw 4.2 no-hit innings and then the wheels came off was also a factor. (I do think if he got Barnes out, that he at the very least gets a chance to finish the inning.)
  24. notin
    Maybe there are actually 3 very similar pitchers named Robert Stock? The Sox are stocked with Stocks!!
  25. notin
    Of course, he could have 2 million options and it still wouldn't make him a lock to avoid a DFA. At best, it might put him behind a similar pitcher with none, like Brice...
