Before being dealt to Anaheim, Giolito was worth 2.8bWAR. That half-season value would be third-highest on the Sox pitching staff for the full year, trailing only Martin and Bello…
Luzardo - surplus value $63.3mill with three seasons of control remaining…
Mayer ($44.5), Perales ($3.5), and Mata ($2.3) is just as short at $50.3 mil as it looks in real life.
BTV accepts Mayer ($44.5), Teel ($17.8), and Luis Guerrero ($1.5) for a total of $63.8. It looks more realistic as well, but I have no idea if Miami accepts…
Well, to be fair the collective set is better than most rotations. If not all.
But we were never going to get more than one of them. Yesterday’s NY Post listed the Sox as participants in the Snell Hunt…
Saddest part is you post this as if you’re not one of the most active participants in that type of behavior. You, like all of us, have every right to act childish out here. That’s everyone’s (least popular) prerogative. But at least own it…
Right now I’m living in a world where very few teams are making any moves. But it’s getting to be more, now with Toronto adding some gloves this week.
Hopefully Boston makes some moves sooner rather than much later…
Given how the Sox have spent recently, I’d think you would be arguing against any more activity. It’s like the team Kris hitting itself over the head with a hammer, and the proposed solution is to get a more expensive hammer…
Each of them has given me reason to question them at various times. I could see Cora pitching for Kike, and I have no issues with that. Probably done similar things before. But my issue was how he simply never stopped once it was evident it was not working.
I’ve also theorized Cora might have suggested Arroyo in RF as a way to get him in the lineup. But this also makes me question his commitment to defense, since the option of playing the better fielding and worse hitting Bradley was always there for the man who fills out the lineup cards…
Read your own post. It was solely about free agency.
If you changed topics mid-stream with no transition, that’s on you. Not that you can ever admit that…
