But why?   Why do the Sox have this self imposed rule vs just going the AAAA route?  Or   Go the Rule 5 route, international, etc.  No need to piss money away like this. 

 

What more do you expect out of the Rule 5 draft? They have gone that way. It doesn’t work. 

They need guys to be bodies that won’t get in the way of actual talent when it’s ready to contribute.

How does a guy like Palka or Goins or Skole get in the way of any of the legit prospects coming up?   Mendick?

Or Stephens and Guerrero as SP candidates back in March instead of $9 million on Nova or the Santana fiasco. 

Yes, we ended up finding out Stephens and Guerrero suck as much, but we din't know this back in March.

You‘d be hard pressed to find a quality major leaguer in the last 5 years of the rule 5 draft in its entirety.

Covey might actually be the best one.

Jesus guys, Abreu blistered the ball and Odor turned it into web gem. Let’s not be overly results-oriented. 

Yep, let’s not worry about our starting pitcher being a gas can and our offense not being able to score runs on a garbage pitcher.  Baseball is all about results.

I think you missed my point. BABIP is a stat that accounts for the variance of results. This was kind of a freak double play that was amazing defensive performance than it was a referendum on Abreu’s playing ability. 

for all of you citing exit velocity, what was the exit velocity of yoan’s single, and if Jose’s ball is three inches more away from Odor I wonder if we are having this exchange about being “disgusted” by Abreu.
