Just throwing this out there. If Bloom picks up Scherzer and with Sale coming back, would that make the SOX the favorites to win the WS? Imho, it would. So, would it be worth giving up some prospects and going over the luxury tax to go for it all this year?
From listening to some SOX talking heads today, Scherzer is already all paid up for this season. However, from what I heard, Scherzer would have to approve going to certain teams, and he's hinted that he wants to play on the west coast, and, of course, the team would have to be a contender.
