It’s not worth it you know what’s coming next.

well that’s something

Gotcha. Yeah but part of it is valuing this year, the other part is no guarantee they make it to FA.

I’m actually not even sure. Miley probably. Ozuna isn’t Boras.

No, just saying when they negotiate they focus exclusively on their competition and give no credence to what player may value themselves at. It was important for Rendon to hit being the highest paid 3b by AAV and it clearly wiped out competition but it got the guy.

Only if they are a certain quality level. But no OF option this year was as well rounded as Rendon (or good offensively). Obviously I’d have signed stras or Cole but when they were off this still was the most affordable and best use of money.

This is also why I’m pretty confident 10 for 360 gets Betts. These symbolic milestones matter but Sox just want to play footsie with next best offer constantly.

And it will be a fight to get him.

And it’s done. 7 for 245. ?

definitely not attainable for a team with only an 86 million payroll

Yeah I typed that too fast.

Lol it’s hilarious. The idea that one of the best bats in baseball who is good defensively will make the team not significantly better.

What Hahn believes they can do is not a good source for what they will do.

Yes this.

Correct!

This is false. I just don’t care to rewire my brain to believe that whatever Hahn and co allow themselves to be capable of is therefore the correct move.

Christ nobody is fucking shocked they didn’t sign them. Him signing is the last big free agent off the board and they struck out on all of them.

People aren’t shocked or surprised.

Dude come on that isn’t even close

Man fuck this offseason.

Honestly it’s hilarious but 3 years ago I basically took for granted that we’d have signed one of the big position player free agents. I like did not think it would be a stretch at all.

Good god. So the implication is if they had signed Manny they couldn’t have signed anyone else for the decade I guess.

probably means it’s done.

It’s all that god damn McDonald’s

living for the last few moments before the dream is dead RIP hours spent on my offseason resource spreadsheet ?
