He won't be here next anyway and will be lucky if his arm doesn't fall off by the end of the season.

It has that potential.

So it essentially cost the Sox Pilkington AND Johnson! Outrageous! Disaster.

I don't think Baez was ever going anywhere. He is the one they would keep.

Extra year of control. Plus they liked his medicals.

Depends on how bad they want to get rid of him. In general it's not a need but if it lowers the cost enough it could be worth it.

He would still be available but he could be out for 10 days. Might decrease his value.

It's getting to the point that vaccinated players are testing positive though. That's what happened to Yelich. So you can't just say the outbreak was due to non-vaccinated players.

I would think the Sox would take the salary in lieu of better prospects.

Averaging 15 million over the next 2 isnt crazy if he continues to hit like he has the last 2 months. It is a risk though.

Agreed.

Just depends on how much that decreases the prospect price.

Even better

I will be disappointed. They need a healthy dependable bullpen piece.

He did.

Someone stated that a later diagnosis was a grade 2.

The injuries aren't the reason. The reoccurrance of them is the concern for the medical staff.

I think it's more that Robert and Grandal are still out. Goodwin isn't on the roster once the team is near full strength.

No kidding. Ironically he gets hurt while at DH. Although realistically he probably was sore from the running and moving the day before.

Could be true but if the primary hitters in this lineup don't start hitting, acquiring one hitter won't make a difference.

With the way this offense is going? They couldn't even move Sheets from second with no outs in the 10th.

And lose in 9 if he doesn't have the great base running play to score on the run down. His good and bad play was a wash for runs today.

Of course it is but they have to go into a slump sometime and lose 20 more games because all teams win 60 and lose 60.

This is perfect. Go through the slump now. Get hot at the end of the season and playoffs. Better to have the slump now than at the end of the season.
