QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 12:59 AM) It's a possibility. In the Abreu thread someone said payroll is around $66 now . Last year it was $119. With $25M in TV money lets say the Sox stay around $120M payroll. That means we still have $50M+ to spend for 2014. QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 01:12 AM) With how poorly we played and the low attendance numbers, I think getting a payroll over $100 million would be an accomplishment. The payroll is at $66M before Gordon's arbitration and likely extension for Quintana and possibly Santiago. Even with those, if the Sox want to aim for $110+, they have enough for Ellsbury and McCann. Signing Abreu, McCann, and Ellsbury will put people in seats. Then add in AviGar, Sale, and Quintana and you have players that can attract fans.

All aboard the McCann train. If they could somehow someway nab Ellsbury as well, then Rick Hahn is a baller.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 11:52 PM) Alright about to go play GTA and then hit the hay. Nugget: One of the Agencies who have been in touch "informally" with the Sox fairly recently has been ACES. Do some research and you can probably get some names. Ross Gload f*** yeah.

We got our possible superstar hitter. Now add McCann and then shoot for the moon with Ellsbury (trade ADA for what you can), roll with this next year. CF - Ellsbury RF - Garcia DH - Dunn 1B - Abreu C - McCann LF - Viciedo SS - Alexei 3B - Semien 2B - Beckham Bench: Keppinger, Gillaspie, D2, Phegley

Come on McCann sweepstakes!

DAMNIT f*** the Rangers. ALEXEI! DAYAN! RECRUIT!If all those reporters are long I'll be shocked.I'm excited.#TeamGollumQUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Oct 16, 2013 -> 11:28 AM) I do not support the dropping of Zapata! Name was way cooler. Damnit Micker!According to fWAR: Jones was the 8th most valuable reliever in baseball, Reed the 13th. They were tied for 5th going into September when Reed hit his dead arm period.From my FB status about the Deadspin article LOL I think the only response is for Wainwright to get pegged next time he pitches. It's the big bad NL where that happens to pitchers.QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 01:38 PM) You talked to every single Cardinals fan? You must have been part of the Applebee's survey team. You know what I mean. It's all you hear from Cards fans. It's always about how great a fanbase they are and how they're always the underdog.Wait, what happened now? I feel like I missed something in class.QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 15, 2013 -> 09:41 AM) I'll be honest, if I am not getting a young superstar bat, I am not trading Chris Sale. Basically I want his equivalent as a hitter. I want Stanton. I want Trout. I don't want prospects. I don't either. Unless it's Trout or Stanton, I want Sale. Those are just packages I'd mull over.
