Not so sure about their roster crunch because they unloaded a boatload of prospects to get Soto. But the particulars of who Boston sends are not etched in stone here…
-
Or Boston could try a different type of deal where they take on money. SD gets: Duran, Winckowski and Seabold (BTV surplus value: $12.1mill) Boston gets: SS Ha-Seong Kim (2 years $17mill, $7mill AAV) and Blake Snell (1year $16.6mill) (BTV surplus value: $12.4mill) San Diego is very likely to want to pare salary. They have two $300mill contracts on the books (Tatis,Machado) and they just acquired Juan Soto last month. Plus arb cases for players like Hader, Cronenworth, etc. They’d probably like to dump even more if possible. They probably don’t want Duran all that badly, but he does make very little money…

I wonder about that. How huge it would be to move Garcia. The Marlins signed Garcia less than one year ago and were clearly prepared to pay him. So just a few months later and they’re just hand-wringing and fraught over what they’ve done? At some point, if they were so desperate to get rid of Garcia and Soler, why did they ever sign them in the first place?
-
Like Ceddane Rafaela. As I suggested…
-
I’m closer with that one
-
Again, you're operating on the assumption that just because you don't know the plan, there isn't one. And listening to Felger and Mazz actually doesn't put you in the know; they don't talk to Bloom either...
-
I also don't like the idea of taking on 3 years of Garcia to get 2 years of Lopez...
-
Not like I had a name! Not even the fake one he uses here!
-
Sox have enough s***** contracts on the bench right now. Avisail Garcia is another one who just can't stay on the field. This situation is not likely to improve for ages 32-34. If the Sox are going to take on a bad contract, which I am ok with, can it be someone a but healthier?
-
Wait!! Is our hero the poster? Or Larry?
-
Didn't ask about your plan. But I will say, if your plan is for Raffy and Bogey to be "coming, or going, or both", it probably differs from Bloom, who won't simply sit down and plan by listing all possible (and even one impossible) outcomes...
-
So one brief stop at the crossroads along the way to teach Robert Johnson to play guitar...
-
I assume his car has incredible AC to handle a trip down to those fiery pits...
-
That truly is the spirit!
-
His home or Larry's?
-
I like Pablo Garcia, but if you are looking for Verlander, he might not be the guy...
-
Luzardo has 4 years of control left. Lopez has two.
-
Rafaela plus Wikkelman for Luzardo. Yeah or nay??
-
You do seem to try a lot. And what makes you think winning and losing involves a plan for this offseason? What do you suppose a plan even looks like?
-
You might be the exception, but the rest of us probably wouldn't recognize a plan if it was handed to us. And I'm ONLY excepting you because of the gorilla costume...
-
Are you serious? “Gee a bunch of random people on a Red Sox forum from varying walks of life and all completely unaffiliated with the Red Sox can’t determine what their plan is. If that doesn’t prove they don’t have one, I don’t know what will.”
-
1. They absolutely have more knowledge of the Big Picture. They’re in The Room. Our primary sources are not even in The Room. 2. Chaim Bloom is like 40 years old and, unlike Epstein in 2003, doesn’t stand out from his peers due to his age. You just might have to change that to Man Wonder or Man Blunder…
-
And it’s absolutely not limited to the Red Sox…
-
Padres will spend all off-season trying to unload Fernando Tatis Jr…
-
Belt’s long overdue. The Sox drafted him in 2006!
