Especially to cover a $50 million deal has to be at least a top 100 player, if not top 50. Please don't be stupid enough to give up a Colson Montgomery like guy to get rid of that contract when you literally have nothing else on the books for 26 and 27, and basically zero hope of contention anyway.

If the return for Crochet was reduced for taking the Benny contract, Chris Getz should be fired for making that theoretical deal.

I'd rather bet on the mental capacity of Michael Kopech.

Tony might be a drunk, but not drunk enough to want to get any blame for this dumpster fire

It was $4 million. If it was anyone else, it wouldn't have mattered, but no one was touching Clevinger, just like they didn't want him the entire winter.

We replace Eloy half of every season anyway, so it isn't like we haven't had practice for it

Then he is an even bigger idiot than we all give him credit for.

They'd move Eloy if someone was willing to pay his buyout, 100%.

All they are doing is adding more time to the era of suck that we are currently in.

More help for the Sox pitchers values.

The Dodgers will.

Any other team would just fire Pedro and be done with it.

It is this sort of stupidity which puts on kids on the bench for this clowns who we aren't going to get back anything for anyway. Like what does Jerry think is going to happen here, Benny is all of the sudden going to turn into a superstar and they can dump the contract for him? If you are done with him, dump him. Quick making a mistake into even more mistakes. I swear Jerry failed Economics and the Sunk Cost principle.

This is a joke of an organization if they can't manage around this deal with only $50 million on the books, and only Benny on the books for beyond '25.

There are a lot of names on that thread I wondered what has happened to.

I mean Getz is the GM, but that would 100% be Jerry's poodle being dogwalked if he did it. Benny is a sunk cost, don't multiply the losses by forcing him into a deal.

If we are going to do a deal with the Phils for Kopech, I know the top end of the guys are probably offlimits (Painter, Miller, Abel, and maybe even the young Crawford) but they have a lot of interesting positional prospects at the back half of their top 10 that we should be targeting such as Caba, Saltiban, Rincon, and Rincones.

Giddey or #13?

Flexen, Fedde, and Crochet are worth more and more each day in this market.

We are the dumbest franchise in baseball, and we manage to reprove it on a daily basis.

And instead of figuring that out, we are playing the geriatric crew for some reason.

If he isn't a guy, then we are in real trouble, because Colson Montgomery hasn't shown anything near Carlos Correa.
