I’m not happy.
I’m glad the Sox didn’t deal, say, Mata for a middle reliever. But Carl Edwards Jr was dealt for a 27yo career minor leaguer. (Edwards has had a rough MLB season to date, but it’s only been 15 IP. He’s no savior, but anyone who pushes Josh Smith down a rung on the depth chart is a good add in my book.)
Adam Kolarek was also acquired for nothing. Where was DD?
