Just like Ted winning in the 4th season of The League, we yet again have this random guy that one person recruited to the league when we needed a last minute spot.....win for the 2nd year in a row. He's been in our league for 2 years, he's won both years. And this season he slipped in the playoffs with a 7-5 record and won it all. Bastard. We do an engraved trophy that we pass around, but the hell if I am going to give this random guy our trophy, so it will once again sit in the attic.

3 yrs/$56M is something I would like to see for Ryu. which means it will probably take something like 4 yrs/$70M.

Thank God the Sox didn't get him, and that price isn't bad, so it shouldn't inflate Ryu's market much.

It's like you've never heard of Miles Mikolas of the Nippon Professional Baseball, or Eric Thames, also from the Korean Baseball Organization.

Fuck that. Take on every dollar of Price's contract. 3 yrs/$96M. The Sox don't seem hot to spend the money anyway, so the more money the White Sox take on, the better the return. Figure out a way to get Benintendi, or JDM, or if they don't want to subtract from their major league roster, take Noah Song, Gilberto Jimenez, one of their better prospects.

Woof.

There is a real chance he gets non-tendered next year. I hope you're right.

Yes. The Sox have the room to absorb that contract.

If you are going to flip Mazara, then see how badly the Marlins wanted him and try to offer a package with Mazara for Caleb Smith, or to the Tigers for Mathew Boyd. I'm not totally sure why the Red Sox would want Mazara.

Just like Kobe. And hating basketball as much I as I do, I have no idea why I even know that.

February 25th. ?

Nomar Mazara was the worst qualified OF against LHP last year with a 55 wRC+. You know who would have been a perfect platoon for him since that's really all he can be trusted for?......Hunter Renfroe, who I wanted before he got traded to the Rays. 139 wRC+ career vs. LHP. Sigh...

Fulmer for Mazara and let us all shrug.

That's Jared Carrabis. He's big at Barstool. His tweet was posted in one of the other threads too. He replied to one of the other barstool guys and said "don't go to bed". But that was over 2 hours ago now and he hasn't tweeted since.

I honestly totally forgot about how hot everyone one saying the Sox would still end up trading for JDM.

Why on Earth would Zac Gallen be available for trade? Where did his name come from?

Last year he nearly acquired Pederson who also had 2 years left. Now Pederson only had 1 year left and we again heard they had discussions. When he said no quick bumps, I assumed he meant 1 year deals. Morton has 1 year left, plus a club option for 2021. That's even better than 2 years guaranteed.

Speaking of the Rays, I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but I would love to see the Sox look in to what the Rays would want for Charlie Morton. Had a Cy Young type season last year, but is old and only has 2 years left, so I could see the Rays be willing to sell high on him. I wonder if they could work out a package around Reynaldo Lopez and a couple prospects.

This is the guy I want.

Do. Not. Want.

Except for that they are currently updating their rankings right now. They have done 4 teams so far this off-season.

No one has even mentioned the name Ozuna yet. Hmm. EDIT: And now Chuck finally has. Group discussion.

They are currently updating their rankings right now. They have only done 4 teams so far this offseason.

I used to take it off to follow all the MLB transactions, not just the Sox. Wall to wall coverage. Inject it in to my veins.

I used to actually take Monday through Wednesday off work for the winter meetings every year. Last year was the first year that I didn't do it because they had become stale over the last couple years prior.
