If the Sox don’t plan on going big on a guy like Correa, they should prioritize a guy like Andrus for a 2 year stop gap at short stop. Invest in Brantley or Conforto for a OF\DH bat and add another starter. Not a bad off-season, but not lo king up Bogey stings.

Xander Bogaerts has signed with San Diego Padres
Hugh2 replied to Jasonbay44's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
The opt out might have been the only reason Bogey did the contract. There has to be two sides to an agreement. Look at what players are getting, sometimes guys are just dead set on going to the market, and we as fans somehow think the team can always stop that. If teams could do that, free agency would barely exist. -
How often are guys returned? Remember, Whitlock is the exception, doesn’t mean one of these might not sting one day but it’s not likely.
-
Two of the better relievers on the market this year. Two guys who would each have been your best reliever last year. The bullpen got a lot better. If Barnes recovers and Houck takes a step forward date I say…it could be elite.
-
He might not have been the best fit in the outfield being profiled as a left fielder where we could use a right fielder, but we did need an outfielder and he is a perfect fit at the top of the order. What I want to know is. Do the Sox have a plan or hope Verdugo can handle right again? Or are they willing to just put up with subpar defense there for a year?
-
Love him or hate him one thing Bloom has done is run a tight ship.
-
Yes, but not a lot, maybe he’s a 15-20 hr guy. But if his skills transition over well he will be a walk machine that doesn’t strike out much.
-
I wasn’t surprised to see big moves this week, actually I called it, but I didn’t see this one coming. But….it kind of makes good sense for them. They really needed outfielders, and this guy looks like he could lead off too.
-
You have to think Hosmer/Dalbec are redundant on this team right now. I wouldn’t mind seeing Dalbec start the season in AAA and give him reps at 3B/LF and see if he can be a right handed corner bench bat.
-
He was originally projected to get $15. MLB trade rumors seem to either be on with the money but short years, or on with the years but 15% too cheap. So Maybe Senga goes somewhere in the 17-20 range for 4-5 years.
-
Next on my wish list. In no particular order. Brantley Conforto #2 #3 pitcher Senga/Eovaldi/Kluber If Brantley and Conforto both are additions Senga seems very unlikely.
-
I wish we could pull the thread with our Originally Bogey predictions from months ago, but I believe mine was 8/217
-
That's great, Bogey and Jensen in a day. The bullpen will be miles better next year. They could really use an outfielder and another starter.
-
If the reports are true that Xander was going to go around get a bunch of offers from other teams and take them back to Boston then this could be this. If Bloom is true to his word I think it gets done today. Bogaerts will be signing an extension today and we may hear about it any minute.
-
I think Bogaerts gets signed today. Abraham reported that Ownership talked with Management last night (Henry called Bloom)? and now they're meeting with Xander today. It's plausible Bloom knows what he needs to get it done and needed John Henry's permission, or John Henry told Bloom to get it done.
-
Normally when that happens someone says yes.
-
If the Sox don't sign him today, I don't think he's coming back. Big things coming
-
Will Middlebrooks tweeting out that Bogaerts and Jensen are very good friends.
-
Taylor flashed some promise last year. I think they could get something for him in a trade. Would still love him as a first man up from AAA, or someone to break camp with if a guy or two goes down.
-
Damn. Haniger was a FA I wanted them to get.
-
Yup. Wonder if it’s just bs, or they’re hammering out a deal and don’t want to make it official yet.
-
Judge to San Fran
-
So 7 $125 for Senga then? I don’t think he gets that.
-
They may be done with Tatis, who may be head on the trade market. s***** person, amazing skill set.
-
Maybe it was more about his defense. I wonder if Verdugo can handle a move back to RF? Or perhaps we can sign Yoshida/Nimmo and trade Verdugo.
