I was for robot umps until this signing.

Correct. Sox only like to spend on mediocre or bad talent.

What will we do with Luis Robert with the great Billy Hamilton patrolling CF?LOL.

Abreu 2020 Vaughn 2021

When was the last time the Sox finished in 2nd place. If that's what he's trying to do he's failing at that.

Mendick + A bullpen arm around $5mil/yr > Yolmer at his cost. Yolmer should be gone unless he's willing to sign real cheap. Leury can stay as a super utility player.

Ricky's just stubborn with his lineups. No way beef is back.

RF needs to be plugged unless you want Cordell, Palka, Engel out there. My guess is Hahn goes after somebody like Puig.

Great. The Padres get another chance to steal a player the Sox want. Which they undoubtedly will.

Youtube TV is the way to go. I cut the cord on Directv when they refused to lower their price a few months ago.

Consider the 2017 draft as an example of why 1 or 2 spots can make a difference. Pick 9: Keston Hiura MIL: having a great rookie season Pick 10: Jo Adell LAA: one of the top prospects in baseball. Pick 11: Jake Burger

Sigh. No Mendick again yet Skole and Palka keep getting at bats.

Check the whole Twins team.

My guess is Mercedes gets added to the 40 man prior to rule 5 in December. Especially with the amount of players like Skole on the 40 man who can easily be removed.

I would think an AL botton feeder team like Baltimore or Detroit would take him in the rule 5 and see if he can be a DH. No reason the Sox shouldn't give him a shot.

Disappointed we don't get to see Mercedes who has done nothing but rake at AA and AAA this year. Could be a DH option.

No reason not to call up Mendick and Mercedes at this point.

Hahn was counting on the playoffs as a good excuse to keep Robert and Madrigal down the rest of the year.

You think they should spend $30 mil on washed up Felix Hernandez? No thanks.

That's real smart. Eliminate yourself from drafting a hall of famer like Frank Thomas. Probably the best Sox draft pick ever.

Don't forget they are still paying paying Bobby Bonilla until 2035.

Not getting my hopes up after the Machado debacle last offseason.

I feel like they should make it a snake draft if they are going to do arbitrarily by division. That would at least allow the bottoms teams to pick first in the 2nd round.

This. If we are looking for salary relief with this payroll we are in trouble.

Another benefit of trading Colome would be that we would be able to see how Bummer would do in that role.
