http://blog.thenewstribune.com/mariners/20...o-upgrade-club/ Damn you, Rios!

I don't think he gets much more, if any more, than Lester. Lester did not cost a draft pick plus Lester is a lefty. To teams that don't already have Kershaw or Sale, being a lefty is in high demand.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/12/11...le-for-support/ That is not true. There has been no preparation for any contingency here. Today was 100% business as usual.

I think the only remaining additions are a LF and SP. I have a hard time seeing a C that makes sense at this point.

I can't think of one free agent signing where I've said, "I wish the Sox had offered that much for him."

Nooooooo, don't do that to me. Please this needs to happen.

Don't you pour water on my dream.

It takes a long time to get somebody drunk enough that Viciedo looks good to them.

As long as it's one of the relievers whose arms are attached, this is a good deal.

Then he needs an appreciation thread

For one season.

Yes. AAA level Rule 5 picks cost $12,000 and the player has to stay at AAA or above or be offered back for $6,000

No, there is audio but no graphics. Hopefully the list gets posted soon. No teams made selections in the AA phase.

AA phase, Sox PASS.

Missed the name, but Reds selected a RHP from Birmingham.

Birmingham IF Chris Curley, selected by LA Angels.

AAA Phase, Sox take Peter Tago, RHP, Colorado

I just looked at 2014 numbers.

They went through the picks pretty quickly, but I didn't hear any Sox players being selected by other teams.

Doesn't look like this guy has any platoon split differential.

Sox PASS

Rangers get DeSheilds Astros get Jason Garcia

.763 OPS in CF is far more valuable than .751 OPS in LF, plus on top of that there is the difference in the defensive value of the two players.

Porcello leaves Tigers: Good Cespedes not coming to Sox: Good
