Drafting someone based on name sounds like a very Sox thing to do.

Why did you have to ruin my day?If the Sox don't take on a significant portion of his salary and/or buyout, he has a zero chance of leaving the Sox.Sheets "familiarity" with the OF is much like my "familiarity' being a billionaire. I understand it in concept, and maybe even pretend to be one at times, but don't have the actual qualifications or ability to do so.That sounds so much like a guy the Sox have historically struggled to develop.You missed the joke there buddy.What else is new?They really should move Sosa to 2B, but I am sure Nicky something something something too valuable to lose.Double checked? I have no connection to Chris Getz, other than as an aggrieved fan.I really, really, really hope he already knew this.I actually broke out the other guys into separate threads for easy discussion... at least until the threadjack happenshttps://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5628988/2024/07/11/mlb-trade-deadline-latest-30-teams-all-star-break/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5628988/2024/07/11/mlb-trade-deadline-latest-30-teams-all-star-break/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5628988/2024/07/11/mlb-trade-deadline-latest-30-teams-all-star-break/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5628988/2024/07/11/mlb-trade-deadline-latest-30-teams-all-star-break/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5628988/2024/07/11/mlb-trade-deadline-latest-30-teams-all-star-break/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851
3 words. Blue Light SpecialWell we know not playing defense and high strikeout rate aren't deal breakers, and neither is spending an entire draft slot on a 1B in the top 5, so really this is the Soxist of picks.https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5629426/2024/07/11/mlb-mock-draft-2024-prospects-travis-bazzana/?campaign=5888993&source=dailyemail&userId=6062851
This is pretty much all that you needed to say. I am glad to finally see you said that you will find a reason to justify everything though.It works
And do it quickly. Without signing top free agents. Because they don't want to come here. And Jerry won't sign the ones who would.But things will be different this time!Like I said, call it what you will, but we had an entire winter to win Harper and/or Machado and we pissed down our collective leg. That piece changes the entire direction of the franchise.
