Ken never says it’s for only one year. Maybe it’s 2-years at 18+ million? Either way, it’s too rich for Jerry’s blood.

Exactly. The Sox aren’t going to spend any serious coin on another outfielder because B. Montgomery is waiting in the wings.

Yikes.

Agreed, but the OF will have to be cheap. $5 million or less. I’m not surprised they have talked to Conforto.

Probably both. He gets the better job title but also gets to stick in his own niche and work on what he is proficient at.

Sure, he could. But this team isn’t close enough to competing to burn a year of control on one of our top prospects.

That would be a very stupid decision. And it isn’t happening.

It was really good. Vietnam one is still the best IMO.

Yes.

Charlotte fodder to replace the previous Charlotte fodder (Dominic Fletcher, Will Robertson, et al.).

He’s a bench guy on a one year deal making $1.25 million. He is replacing 40 year old Justin Turner. I doubt the Cubs are looking at him as anything but that.

Justin Turner replacement for the bench. 1-year at $1.25 million guaranteed.

It’s not going to be much for this guy either way.

“Sox aggressive in stealing a seat at the table”

And you still wouldn’t know the truth by the end of the series.

Hopefully he’s Charlotte’s lefty OF. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/12/rays-designate-tristan-peters-for-assignment.html

Hah, saw this guy was DFA’d. Didn’t look too interesting based on his minor league numbers. Would rather see Noel get acquired.

Interesting news. I do think the price will be too high for some of those guys and they will ultimately be priced out of the Sox range.

That can happen when the guy that was hired to be Getz’s assistant GM appears to be more qualified to be the Sox GM than Getz himself.

And Jerry finally fired him once his GM rep was so bad he couldn’t get another job. How nice.

Thanks, I seem to remember that but not the Hahn rumor that WestEddy mentioned. Jeez, Jerry is a miserable person.

Didn’t Jerry also block a potential move to Toronto for Kenny?

I remember watching it live. I’m pretty sure Hahn walked calmly back to his office, shut the door, screamed at the top of his lungs, and punched his wall a few times.

Looks like he’s still tweeting within the past day, unless that’s someone else. Hopefully, Larry is alive and well. He was always a funny fucker.

Whatever happened to that guy? He still around?
