Fair enough

As much as we like to b**** about Eloy, the two healthy seasons he had were ok to good.

Vaughn's value is severely diminished on the Sox because he's forced into the OF. Abreu isn't going anywhere while he's still producing. Grandal will probably have to DH next year.

I don't consider Eloy a major part of the 26 man roster anymore. He's still 25 with tons of upside and cheap options if he can be unlocked. Eloy would be acquired by Washington to unlock him and then flip him for more prospects.

He's still 25 with tons of upside, and if they can unlock him they can flip him for a haul, and he has 2 option years that aren't expensive unless he continues to suck.

Anyway, didn't see that taking Corbin's contract was a requirement. That takes the Sox out of the picture. No way JR signs off on that.

Even if a rental, acquiring Soto makes sense. The Sox can't afford to trade Kopech. I'd build my package around Eloy, Vaughn and Montgomery

The ideal scenario

I'll take the win on Sunday vs. the fuckers.

Conspiracy Theory: the Yankees are going to let Judge walk because they're going to replace him with Soto

Different sport, but we literally just saw something like this play out here in town with Alex DeBrincat.

Are you asking Hawk or DJ?

I still listen to the music from that game. One of my favorite sports game soundtracks ever. Anyway, mid 90s in 2000 was like upper 90s now. A pitcher had plus velocity if they sat around 94 mph back then. Upper 90s SP were unicorns. Was a big deal if a guy sat around 96.

Rauch threw very hard before he got hurt. IIRC he was an mid 90s guy in the minors. Source: I used to hit 100 mph with him in MVP 03. Take it with a grain of salt.

Hehe

MVP: Abreu Cy Young: Cease

Yeah I'd imagine this is a pick for money reasons.

Are you laughing at me or the Sox pick?

Michael Turner C Arkansas

Ok, makes sense now.

The guy the A's just took sounds familiar. Like a guy the Sox took out of HS and didn't sign.

Same.

Peyton Pallette RHP Arkansas

I thought Tidwell's name was Blake lol. Too bad was hoping he'd drop to Sox.

Uckf the Twins.
