That thread when Cespedes, Upton and Gordon were all FA's was a good one. I'm pretty sure Gordon was 3rd among the 3 among Soxtalkers who expressed an opinion . I remember arguing with a lot of people when I wanted Cespedes though.
Never make predictions during a losing streak. Sox won't be this bad all year. Maybe top 5-10 bad but not top 3 unless Hahn trades Abreu and Moncada is affected by it.
If the Sox end up with Donaldson then we know the management team has learned nothing. You want to compete year after year then don't get older free agents . It's pretty damn simple actually.
