Actually I just like baseball talk. If I was actually the GM, I’d overthink every trade until after the deadlines all passed...
-
And Arauz is not the solution...
-
It is really funny how much Peraza and his .658 OPS is reviled while Arauz and his .684 OPS is beloved...
-
The problem sports teams have in San Diego is their competition is the beaches and the weather. When the Padres suck, their fans just say “surf’s up!” and don’t even think baseball until next season...

I think Yankee fans overestimate the value of Tauchman. Teams dealing aces don’t do so for packages around 29yo platoon players. Also, the Guardians had Frazier once already. They didn’t want him. Baseballtradevalues.com places the value of Clevinger at $38.4 million in surplus value. The values of Tauchman and Frazier are $6.8mill and $6.1mill respectively. Basically our package was bad but so was yours. The difference is the Sox could (if so inclined) offer Alex Verdugo ($46.1mill) for Clevinger

Francisco Alvarez is 18 years old and has barely played Rookie Ball. He’s not a factor in acquiring Vazquez, unless they send him back...
-
Padres are close to acquiring Austin Nola. That would take them off Vazquez...
-
I don’t think that package gets you anywhere near Clevinger, even if the prospect is Casas or Downs...
-
2b is a team need, although they may go short term. I like Jonathan Schoop, who always seems to get1 year deals...
-
Arauz can go to Pawtucket next season. He’s not so remarkable s to hand him 2b...
-
Not true. I would not trade my dog...

Are you sure Bloom didn’t try?
-
2021 depends heavily on Sale and ERod. Moreland has been good, but he’s hardly irreplaceable...
-
Teams are typically reticent in dealing good pitching prospects. I’m not surprised if Moreland was unable to get one back
-
What if the Sox followed up by dealing Bradley or Pillar to Milwaukee for Omar Narvaez? The Brewers have no center fielders on the roster and have been using Avisail Garcia in CF...
-
You’re always safe betting against any trade rumor. But if it doesn’t happen, it will probably be more related to Bloom’s demands exceeding Tampa’s generosity. I don’t think Tampa is looking at Vazquez and thinking “he’s not what we want. Let’s get him!” If Bloom is willing to take back Kiermaier (whose expensive contract he wrote), Tampa might be very willing to talk...
-
No good third team candidates...
-
How about the Dodgers got the best fish-named player ever?
-
Or wrong!! (Wrong for the other team, that is,)
-
Per MLBTR, the Rays have expressed interest in Vazquez
-
If Tampa (or any team) had a catcher who could play in 2021, why would they deal for Vazquez? Sox would need to get a catcher in another deal...
-
Baseballtradevalues.com accepted the following trade: Tampa gets: Christian Vazquez, Jackie Bradley Boston gets: Shane Baz, Brent Honeywell, Kevin Kiermaier, Mike Zunino Zunino ($4.5 mill) and Bradley ($11mill)are both expiring contracts that balance some money but hopefully don’t push Boston over the tax limit. Taking Kiermaier replaces Bradley and saves Tampa $25.6 mill in 2021 and 2022 (minus the money taken back). And the Sox get two elite pitching prospects, although Honeywell has legitimate injury concerns...
-
... and it sounds like Mookie was never coming back to Boston anyway.
-
The infamous baseballtradevalues.com does accept a trade of Christian Vazquez to Tampa for Shane Baz (BA#71 this year)...
-
There, there...
