If they trade anything more than the offer in the OP for Lynn it would be a massive overpay. Edited December 6, 2020 by Jack Parkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 No pitcher should be compared to Arrieta. What he did has basically never been done before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 1 hour ago, fathom said: Gammons just said Lynn fits the mold of what Tony wants Lynn competes his ass off. The Sox have had too many guys who don't compete. They're at 100 pitches in the 4th damn inning. They're happy to five and dive. That ain't Lynn. He attacks the strike zone and works deep into games. He and Giolito at the top will set the tone for the rest of the staff. He's exactly what this team needs. Another guy who will get after it and compete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Just sign guys. I'd only trade for Lynn if the free agent pool was dry and I'd want Gallo too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn’t cost you that much than you make that trade 100 percent. Edited December 7, 2020 by maloney.adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn’t cost you that much than you make that trade 100 percent. Like I said I think that Lynn is in the Tanaka/Sugano tier. I'd rather sign someone like Odorizzi or Arihara than trade anything more than the OP suggestion for Lynn. If they even ask for Cease or Madrigal(who I don't like all that much but haven't given up on yet) That's an immediate hangup for me if I'm Hahn.

Vulture Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) I dont see how Arrieta is an apt comparison Arrieta, age 32-33 4.53 FIP 1.369 whip 3.2 bb/9 7.2 k/9 Lynn 3.43 FIP 1.173 whip 2.6 bb/9 10.3 k/9 Arrieta had a couple years that were absurd outliers from his previously putrid performance followed by a visibly sharp decline, while there is no hint of decline in Lynn's recent performance, which has for the most part been consistently good throughout his career. In his case, one mediocre season is the outlier. He just averaged more than 7 innings per start. Arrieta was struggling to get through five at age 33. There is nothing there that suggests he is on a similar arc to Arrieta. Their career totals may sum up to be similar, but their careers have been anything but.
