Correct, this isn’t him teasing he’s going elsewhere

All the guys you said you’d be fine with are significant injury risks, just like Richards. Richards might be the healthiest

Please please don’t let it be from vaccine complications

He’s tweeted stuff saying he hopes he signs with the Sox

Romine is terrible though. I’d rather they take their chances with Collins.

But Hector tweeted good news for Sox a week ago and in between that time and the Cruz picture, he said Cruz was waiting for clarity. It really seems like a leverage play.

Weems

He was asking Al’s for information a few weeks ago so not an insider in my opinion.

I think the Twins sign Tanaka

What I don’t get is if Hector knows it’s happening, why doesn’t he have more specifics like he usually has.

He’s also saying he’s breaking this and not someone else. However he didn’t rule out the leverage play.

That’s why I mentioned the idea of trading Vaughn and Heuer for Burnes and signing Cruz. You keep Madrigal this way.

Yep definitely a possibility. Seems peculiar as Hector was just talking a day or two ago about Cruz waiting for clarity on universal DH before deciding.

I’ve thrown this out there before, but if you want to go for it all (and won’t sign Bauer), then you trade Vaughn for Burnes and sign Cruz for two years.

Or signing with a team outside AL Central

Would make sense given their interest in Martin Perez. I remember seeing Cahill as someone that could fit their needs. Also I must be crazy because I would easily trade Kopech or Crochet for Burnes.

Bauer easily

Excellent

Anyone see the Portillos tweet that was deleted about the saga? Wondering what it was.

For someone that would be bad defensively, I’m happy Sox didn’t pay this much

Makes sense to me

They’ll sign or trade for some pitching now.

The Sox might just like Richards and his elite spin more than Q.

Angels always need pitching

To be fair, the reddit guy said 24-48 hours. It’s going to be quite the meltdown if, hypothetically, people are posting in here yet there’s another thread saying Sox signed Richards or Happ.
