Tnetennba Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 $25M AAV for 7 years isn’t terrible if he can still play at a high level at the back end. Big if though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what happens with Story now? Yeah but still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth05 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Really MEH feeling not going anywhere close to that for Semien. Good player but just don’t think the Sox needed him at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will never be in on any youngish true quality players if we won't step in the water. Thus my fear is we spend big on closers and other older players on the decline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol true. You'd think if your that old and have plenty on $$$. You'd say "fuck it" and go all in. Especially for one of the most talented teams in the league.
