fathom

Also, sure seems like the Sox are holding out for Mayo

Lots of info here. Yankees seem unlikely, Orioles are the main focus. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/39272529/mlb-free-agency-dylan-cease-white-sox-trade-rumors-fits-2023-2024

Couple of ways to look at this, not sure what’s going on: - Yanks don’t want to pay the money or prospects for Snell/Cease - Yanks can still add Cease to go with Stroman, as this gives them two starters for the price of Snell - leaked interest to try and get Sox to lower asking price

Stroman with the Yanks seems like a disaster waiting to happen

I just don’t think they’re going for it this year, which makes acquiring Cease less of a priority. Yankees and Orioles battle it appears.

Mets might be out on Cease due to finances?

He fell out of the top 100 in the prospect ranking I saw earlier today

No idea, if anyone wants Giants info, this account has been accurate. @GhostBayAreaBob

Snell really is the wild card now. It doesn’t sound like the Giants are gonna get him (Stroman likely?), which leaves the Yankees as the leaders IMO. Montgomery is gonna go back to the Rangers it appears.

Now all their idiot fans will shut up. They will still load up the next few weeks.

Good, I don’t think that will go well.

Then how do you explain Rosenthal saying how strong of a package the Sox will get for him?

Not really sure, but they seem to take every opportunity to illustrate that he won’t be starting for them.

I’m sure they can’t afford Taylor. He’s coming off a good season. They like guys coming off career worst years.

15 starts for him might be 50 innings

Just seeing all these names, this is a glorified AAA team besides Robert. It makes the 2023 Sox roster look like the 27 Yankees. It’s just so frustrating because so many of these guys are old and/or won’t have any trade value.

Getz said Flexen will be in the rotation today

No shot

It’s something they needed to try, but I will be shocked if his body holds up

Rumors out there the Giants won’t get any of the three lefty starters

For a team that wants to get more athletic, Jones is a good fit

There’s local media that covers the Sox?

Dominguez, but he’s not available

Sorry, totally meant to say “from” and not “than”, as the rest of my post said they must have an inclination the Orioles will offer a good package

IIRC, the Sox were linked to him prior to the draft
