maloney.adam Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) We should hopefully find out soon what the other offers were from the other teams. That usually gets leaked from the national writers. Edited January 12, 2021 by maloney.adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Just now, fathom said: Rodon I still think Rodon is worth a flier as a reliever. He has the velocity to do well in relief, but he's probably going to need some time to adjust to the new role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pal Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Fuck it, Bauer is reeling, offer a 2 year deal he can't refuse. On paper, it would be best lineup, rotation, and bullpen in the game. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they will sign a DH only guy, it will be someone with some defensive versatility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a luxury tax implication or something? There's many ways to think about it but it seems like the Sox are trying to leverage the next three years and Hendricks is trying to leverage being 31 in a COVID offseason.

Orlando Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) People will still think that Al’s and Portillos are fake. They were nails on this stuff. I’ll keep letting you believe posters from ages ago who pop up with some cryptic stuff and are wrong most of the time. I know who I’ll follow for inside info. Haven’t been wrong yet 🤷♂️ Edited January 12, 2021 by Orlando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is the biggest contract given out this offseason which shows pathetic things have been moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
