Not a super big fan, but I get wanting to add some back end stability to this pen.

Outside of a Lyle Mouton sighting, this is the most important Ex-Sox news of the winter. I was disappointed that Caulfield was not reached for comment.

The fact it did after that long tells me it was going to happen no matter what.

Welcome to the death of 2018, we are now in the irrational anger state.

I think it is TeamMachado leaking to get more teams involved.

Didn't Cohen make the pro bowl as a special teamer?

If you want to be in the business of giving away potential NBA talent, I know a front office for you.

Is this the part where you narrow the focus to just this deal and pretend that the Bulls haven't been giving away second round picks like strip club flyers in Las Vegas?

When you are in a full out talent acquisition mode, you don't shut off any potential avenue of talent. While rare, you can get starters and even the occasional star out of the second round.

The Hosmer deal was stupid the minute it was signed. Machado and Harper are different animals.

I mean maybe the market really is broken this time, but it just feels like with teams having more money than ever, that eventually this dam will burst.

It feels like we are near the end of the cycle. It seems like the second to last step is always where people are amazed at how low the offers are, followed by the player signing a contract that was above where most people were comfortable.

This at least makes me feel a bit better.

Supposedly it is conditional, so hopefully those conditions are ridiculous, but hey, I can dream, right?

What trash.
