    Most player/prospect yield minimal results. Considering the Sox had chances to unload all of Sake’s deal and get nothing, it’s a good sign they at least tried to get something at the cost of several million. And hopefully they don’t just give up on Grissom after a questionable spring…

    He’s still a 2 fWAR player despite the declining offense. That makes him worth $16mill per year..
  3. notin
    $4.5mill

    As it has been pointed out multiple times (all of them by me), he does have all his options…

    On this, 5Gold. When you were a kid watching “Casper the Friendly Ghost,” did you ever wonder how Casper the Friendly Child died?

    Yes. But there has been plenty of speculation about Devers’ shoulders. Are they healed? Or will Casas re-injure himself by performing another mundane baseball activity? Last year it was swinging. This year maybe he injures himself while spitting sunflower seeds. If one goes down, the other takes over 1b. But who DHs?

    They’re from the mindset of “we need to run Yoshida out of town and pretend the Sox will spend the savings!!” So I can see where madman fits…

    No more heavily than Boston is…

    If they can do better than 5-34 against Detroit, Kansas City, and Minnesota, it would help Boston. But it just seems more likely they take a few of those 5 remaining steps backwards…

    Not sure why Sox fans want Yoshida gone. If the Sox are supposed to be worried about the recent injuries to Devers and Casas, why should they trade away the bat behind them in line? Do people want a clear path to a 1b/DH role for Romy Gonzalez?

    I hate the idea of giving up Fitts for Arenado. And I don’t even think Fitts is some elite prospect, but I do think Slaten, Whitlock, Fitts and Guerrero has the potential to be an elite middle relief core. But I know that including Fitts might be the difference in changing Arenado from a $50mill waste of money into a $45mill waste of money…

    Maybe Breslow will surprise us all and deal Crawford for Alex Bohm, allowing Dombrowski to swoop in and overpaying for Bregman. Then Boston will bring back Nick Pivetta as their new closer. Boom. Postseason…

    And he was a vampire. Legend has it Boo Berry was the ghost of a child he devoured…

    Reportedly he is keeping Arenado open while talking to Bregman. I think the Sox are the only team linked to Arenado, but St. Louis might not move him until Bregman signs regardless. I just hope if the Sox do finally settle for Arenado, they don’t give up Fitts (which is the only name I’ve heard so far).

    Because Boras was the only one given a chance to find out. That most elite ball players choose him to be their voice in negotiations is what does make him best…
  16. notin
    Thinking Boras isn’t the best agent because you focus on his failed attempt to get his clients what they want is a one-sided argument. Dont his competitors have failures, too? And do their failures still wind up doing as well as Boras’?

    I think most people call it “most affordable” and “most familiar”, but that’s not the same as “best”…

    If Devers has a fit for getting moved off 3b for DeJong, I would understand…
  19. notin
    So the White Sox trade away their best player, add no one noteworthy, and win 21 more games? I’ll take the WAY UNDER
  20. notin
    Instead of “here’s looking at you, kid”, at least Bogie didn’t say “see ya later, alligator”…

    I know!! I know!! Switch gears and sign a heavily-discounted Brandon Drury to a prove-it deal!!

    It’s still Casablanca compared to Octopussy or the Timothy Dalton years…

    Oh please. Count Chocula was scarier. He proposed a balanced breakfast but was actually leading his followers down a path towards obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay…

    5 movies. Include “You Only Live Twice” I suppose Boras’ clients would suffer if he was replaced with George Lazenby…

    Boras is the Vladimir Putin of athletes’ representation!
