2023 MLB offseason signings and rumors thread
They’re also not paying top price for ages 37-40. I like this deal way more than Correa’s.

Better yet for them, no room for Madrigal.

It’s a good deal for the Cubs. It’s strange as both the Sox and Cubs feel like they’re in the old market while these other teams are spending in a crazy market.

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
How are they going to get catching then?

They’ve always liked Garrett Richards.

If the Sox do trade Hendriks, they probably need to sign a righty reliever.

In the same thread, he says Colas in RF.

Depending on what Grifol thinks, I wonder if Mondesi Jr could be of interest.
-
Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Probably keep him to start and give him a few games a week catching and 1B/DH. If he sucks, he gets the Keuchel treatment.

The Sox were clearly in on Murphy. That should tell you all you need to know about how they view Grandal.

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Problem is the occasional start ends up being 4 games a week for the Sox. We’ve seen this so often the last few years.

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Because what if they’re determined they don’t want him around anymore?

I like this deal way more

He was on pace for a 4 WAR season last year. More importantly, it pushes Eloy to DH. It’s a move that makes all the sense in the world.

If he’s in it, I don’t think this board will like who the Sox give up (Liam and good prospects)
-
Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Yeah there’s definitely a few trades coming. Was obvious from what Hahn was saying. I still can’t believe Benintendi is only getting a little more than double this year than the great Trevor May.

Yet many fans want one of the worst hitters to ever play at that stadium (Gallo)
-
Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
The only thing he doesn’t provide the Sox needed was power, but I’m optimistic he can give them 15-20 homers. I’m excited that this likely guarantees Eloy as DH.

I have yet to see fans of any other teams say this was a bad deal. Not sure who Sox fans were expecting to be acquired this offseason.

You just never know with them

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Lowe, not Madrigal.
-
Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Lowe would be a perfect fit to round out the lineup. Doubt it happens, but like seeing him suggested.
-
Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Yankees, Astros and Padres all wanted him. I take that as a good sign.
