Wonder if they try and trade for Quintana

Personally, I blame Cuba for not producing more pitchers

Reminds me of a college coach that fails at recruiting

It’s his fiancée by the way. No wonder he has to try and please her.

I also get the sense they do a terrible job at evaluating where they stand with a player

I do remember Dick Allen saying a month ago that MadBum was on their radar

At this point, I will be pleasantly surprised if it’s not Keuchel.

Time to turn this into MadBumTalk

How is Wheeler not risky as hell? TJS once and throws incredibly hard.

When they missed on Manny last year, I felt like someone punched me in the gut. This year with Wheeler, it’s nothing like that. Hopefully they get creative with this money now.

I’m the last person to defend the FO, but when did they say anything about Wheeler

I don’t know why people were so optimistic that the front office that couldn’t suck at free agency more during the last 5 years would all of a sudden be good at it.

Jerry won’t do that though. He’s proven time and again he needs to sell.

Well the Abreu extension was inexcusable, but I think this is less about what they had available in the budget and more how they valued Wheeler.

Confirmed by?

And the award for most dramatic response goes to....

I’m sick of him being the mouthpiece. As soon as he started making excuses last night for why they might not get him, I knew Wheeler was going elsewhere.

Jerry is never going to want to spend that much on a pitcher.

Hopefully, but seems like it will be Keuchel/Roark/Wood instead

And need to stop acting like the Sox have a new owner

Can’t wait to sign Dallas K and hear how he’s the next Buehrle

Well this should be fun

Not sure, but Cubs would love Osuna

I still want to believe the Sox were entertaining a free agent today at GRF.

That was pretty embarrassing
