If we have to go back 60 years for a comparable deal, then we were due.
I would have only gone back to Bill Lee for Stan Papi. Or better yet, Larry Andersen for Bagwell…
MLBTR has confirmed Eyanson, Witherspoon, Narvaez, and Azocar. Rivas is not mentioned, but there is a PTBNL.
Boston also gets catcher Jake Rogers.
Going out on a limb - the PTBNL is conditional based on either Adley’s playing time or his IL time…
I would assume Wong is heading to Baltimore. Lower trade value increases the returning prospect capital to Baltimore. And wuth Basallo on the IL, Theyre going to need a catcher to prevent their pitchers from firing everything into the wall behind home plate…
He’s a three time All Star, Silver Slugger with two top 12 MVP finishes, was a ROY runner up and has been invited to the HR Derby. What else does he need to do? Part the Red Sea?
This is what I like about Breslow. If something doesn’t work out, he’s pro-active.
Take Curtis Mead. Big acquisition that unfortunately fractured his wrist almost immediately. Breslow’s new plan? Move on Rutschman, who is already on the IL with a wrist injury.
Take that, Karma!
