They’re not even pretending to make Sheets an outfielder

The interesting thing to me is I truly believe Sox are more interested in getting another pitching, as opposed to another RF. Like it or not, Vaughn is going to be every day RF and Sheets the DH (with Engel playing in the field against LHP and someone else at DH)

Mets were interested in Kenley and also supposedly still want a late inning reliever. Wonder if we see a three team trade with Kimbrel going to the Mets, JD Davis to a team like Tampa and Meadows to the Sox

I was definitely expecting an impact lefty bat at 2nd or RF

And if all goes right pitches the 6th inning

Kinda sad Stoney said his most exciting acquisition of the offseason has been Joe Kelly

Curbelo just killed their rhythm this year. They were better with Kofi and four outside threats. I will be shocked if Curbelo stays. Also, Kofi really should go pro. There’s nothing more for him to prove.

Come on man....James is a great dude and I promise you he doesn’t mention rumors for attention. If he did, he would have mentioned weeks ago about the Conforto offer he heard about. There have been plenty of things he’s been made aware about that he hasn’t posted on the site.

Indians have been tied to Joc and also were very interested in Winker. It seems they’re clearly looking for lefty power. Also, I read where the Phillies were trying to get Meadows before they got Castellanos, but other teams were in on Meadows also.

Because internally they don’t believe big contracts help a team win would be my educated guess

Don’t disagree but they won’t add another righty. I can see the Guardians adding him.

Conforto surely will want an opt-out, which will never happen here

Could have easily been Harrison or Kelly, who knows. I’m of the belief now it’s Sheets at DH, Vaughn in RF and Engel/Garcia backing Vaughn up in RF. Any further additions are a SP and/or catcher IMO

A’s to try and trade for a pitcher

I do find it interesting Sheets hasn’t gotten any time in RF in either game so far. If I had to guess, he’s going to be the primary DH.

Another Cespedes homer

Who’s to say they aren’t already over the budget and need to unload Kimbrel to get back to what they set their payroll at?

You’re assuming they care about options, and aren’t just being honest when they say the team is mostly set.

Fegan said the same thing. I’m hoping they eat something like 5 million and get a good (not top 150) prospect.

Not if they get a good prospect back

Under no circumstance do I think a team takes on his whole salary.

so which teams have soon-to-be-ready MLB catchers? Marchan from Phillies seems to be a fit, and Phillies might have interest in Kimbrel.

Which makes me believe Conforto isn’t an option

Unreal how many dumb plays UNC made, but Akinjo being awful was too much for Baylor to overcome. I hate that Baylor stopped pressing in overtime.

Gonna force his way to whatever team gets a Vegas relocation
