Well, one year of Donaldson and then 6 years of Dalbec...
-
Like a one year $15mill offer with a $1mill player option for an AAV of $8mill? Is that still allowed under the new CBA?
-
Ryu accepted his Qualifying Offer and isn’t available. If the Sox drop down a tier (presumably after spending on a closer), do they look at guys like Anibal Sanchez or Lance Lynn?
-
Didn’t the Sox sign Uehara after trading for two experienced closers in Hanrahan and Bailey?
-
Technically, MLBTR mentioned him as a non-tender candidate. That he wasn't let go when Carson Smith was shows DD has some faith in him, although we will see when arb offers go out. By no means is he a lock for closer, but until a better name enters the picture, he is definitely in the running. I mean, I bet I can find people who want to hand the role to Ryan Brasier...
-
If he gets healthy like he was in Milwaukee, why not? Of course I have no way of knowing if he ever will be, but DD certainly does. And he did acquire Thornburg for a reason.
-
Agreed. He’s bringing in a closer. There are plenty of experienced closers in free agency and he has certainly shown he isn’t adverse to trades. But one way or another, the Sox will start spring training with an experienced closer. I say this knowing full well that experienced closer might be Tyler Thornburg...
-
Despite that I will probably name 50 or 60 players I think the Sox could use and afford, I fully expect that when DD makes his actual moves, they will be ones I didn’t anticipate...

I'd like to talk about Brian Johnson for a second
notin replied to Dojji's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
He’s ok and a little more important now that Wright is questionable. But finding pitchers who can pitch like Johnson isn’t the most difficult task. And finding one with an option left would be better... -
I’d be surprised if anything was done about 2b. If the Sox stick to any luxury tax limits, I think the only bat added at all might be a RHH 1b to compliment Moreland. It might be Pearce or another FA ( Reynolds? Valencia?) or acquired via trade (Cron?). Although this actually would be a good year to get a 2b, given the options on the free agent market. Dozier, LeMahieu, Lowrie, Murphy, Gonzalez, Cabrera, Forsythe, Walker....

Joke?

There is that annoying trend of wanting your child to have a unique name. Want your son to have a name no one else his age has? Well, try naming him Mike. Or David. Or James. Those names are readily available now...

I think his most valuable ability is pitching for minimum wage... -
And by the way, we all know in real life that woman would not be grinning and instead thinking “Not again. I’m switching his Viagra pills with Ambien.”
-
I told my daughter Cialis is a drug that makes you do stupid things like lug two small full bathtubs to the top of a mountain. I don’t consider that a lie...
-
The SK Wyverns of KBO signed former Astros farmhand Brock Dyckxhoorn
-
Or why former Giants/Expos shortstop Chris Speier also named his son and future major leaguer Justin, making him sound like a motivational speaker...
-
NFL games are unwatchable with small children. I got sick of trying to explain what Viagra and Cialas are...
-
The absolute funniest sponsorship ever is in Chicago White Sox radio broadcasts where before every game - and I am not making this up - they introduce the umpires by saying “ today’s umpire rotation is brought to you by the Spectrios Institute for Low Vision.”

My daughter has a friend whose mom has the maiden name Ponce de Leon...
-
When I was a kid I noticed this and pointed out to my mom that was our batteries had a baseball player’s name on them. She thought I was referring to Ray-O-Vac. Ray O’Vac? Never heard of him...
-
He wasn’t going to get Moreland that much cheaper. He got him for basically the same deal he signed Chris Young to...
-
The winner is......... Pearovaldi!!!!
-
So.... not marketing tools?
-
I wouldn’t sign Buchholz to platoon with Moreland. But as a depth pitcher, I make that deal yesterday...
