Guessing he's more of an insurance policy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a move for that (it was rumored a few weeks/month ago that this would happen). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see if he does or not. Personally, I think his brief (if not only) MLB time will include the Japan trip as one of the 3 extra players.

Wow - I know both of us really like Pomeranz for this team. Just don't get why we wouldn't gamble on something this cheap. Sox seem pretty content in rolling with one Banuelos/Covey/Stephens/Adams for the 5th spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a guy is trying to re-establish himself, pitching in the NL in SF is far more desirable than pitching in the bandbox on the South Side vs. AL opponents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 That incredibly low dollar amount also indicates that there weren't very many teams who thought he had much in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
