Bryan Ramos and DeLoach/Colas could probably out-perform Paul DeJong's mundane output since the middle of June (.207/.250/.293), or Tommy Pham's pedestrian (.238/.340/.310) in the same time period. While it would be hard to replace Crochet's and Fedde's production, maybe Davis Martin, Sean Burke or Ky Bush can just be solid like Jonathan Cannon.

I agree with you. I think the only real option for a deal would be something like 3/$45m or 3/$50. Guarantee him 5/15 for his 2 arb years, and maybe you get a deal on a third with a buyout in case he gets injured again. But he's young and has little mileage on that arm.

WS23 isn't part of the fanbase.

...And some positive records are being set this year, too.

I think this has more to do with the All-Star game appearance than stopping Crochet right after 100 innings.

It's BS that Crochet is so close to the perfecto, and they won't let him finish.

I'm confused. Are you saying that Crochet, Colson Montgomery and Noah Schultz are picks the Sox "got wrong"?

Or can just make him listen on pitch selection.

Then it's a good thing that they changed scouting directors 5 years ago, and have been drafting much better since.

Do you mean over the years where they didn't draft positional players well?

It's a good thing that nobody on the Sox said that, and it's just Jim Bowden and his usual BS.

His lack of lockdown, strike-out stuff probably knocks him down a notch. But he certainly will be traded, and won't clean out a team's top 5.

You're describing players concluding that making more money is bad because that only makes owners want to break the rules and withhold it from them.

It's two months of PAs for somebody. Baldwin, maybe.

I accounted for the buyout in the original post. I'm sure there's a way for Getz to make another team taking a flier on Yoan palatable for both the trading team, and Reinsdorf.

Moncada is owed $8m for the last 2 months of the season. Crochet, ~$800k, ÷ 3 = $266k. (8m + 266k) ÷ 2 = 4.133

Rosenthal talks about how the deadline to trade competitive balance picks is 5:00 Sunday evening. The Pirates, D-backs, Guardians and Royals have round A picks that follow the 1st round. The Twins, Brewers and Reds have round B picks that follow the 2nd round. MLB draft order, if you're interested: https://www.mlb.com/draft/2024/order
