I mean, it looks like these are the types of risks the Sox may have to take if they can’t get FA to take super legitimate offers. But I agree - really not my favorite route unless it’s seemingly too good to be true.

If the Red Sox are sending along like $30M, I'd be a lot more interested than if they're not. Price at $32M AAV is crazy. Getting Benintendi would be great. Happy to give them Mazara in the deal - no idea if that is something they would even entertain. Hard to know what the prospect package they would expect with covering ~33% of his deal. I would think others teams would be interested if they're willing to prorate his deal to that degree. Interesting potential deal, but just feels like too many moving parts to see it realistically coming to fruition.

Lol, your posting act is lacking. Why even bother with this team - and more importantly why spend so much of your time trying to convince a group of fans that everything about the organization they love is a joke? You have yet to see me "defend" the Mazara move - I've said he's better than backing up the brinks truck every two weeks for 5 years for shitty RF options on the FA market. He's a flier. It's gross, but they could have certainly done worse. I've told you at least 3 times today I wouldn't have made this move at this junture. But its also an enormous upgrade over what we had (which anything frankly would be), and the world is not ending.

Lol, he is an incredibly interesting guy a $3M AAV. You don't even need him to be very good to come out ahead on that deal.

Rabbit comes in with the cold bath of water. RIP unrealistic mega deal in which we acquire Price + Sale + Benintendi for a hot dog vendor, Abreu's next bulk shipment of Redman, Moan4Yoan and Blake Rutherford. I was excited.

Dig a little deeper there, Sir.

The White Sox aren't giving up top prospects to acquire the David Price at slightly less than Cole's AAV. GMAFB

Which ones - trying to catch up here, not sure I saw all his quotes but the little 75 second video DVS posted, which was mainly about Mazara.

If Mazara isn't a FA next offseason, that means this trade worked out really well for the Sox.

Noted - i've always wanted to watch someone try to eat a hat? Is ranch allowed?

The return of Sale would be awfully entertaining.

lol cmon mannnnnn

Where is this from?

$9.1M over three years for Lindbloom. Damnnnnn that is sexy.

Where is he saying this? Don't see on twitter.

Really liked him a 2nd SP addition.

Where are you seeing said smoke? nvm: see you answered

JFC. I am not repeating what has been explained to you countless times today

I said whatever dude because you're like talking to a brick fucking wall. You ignore every single point people make and just repeat the same negative bullshit over and over again. I said nothing about Mazara - we were talking about using useless stats like ASG appearances, gold gloves and silver sluggers in regard to Ozuna, and then you go back to Mazara. You do the exact same thing with Machado in nearly every thread almost a year later! Very few people are excited about Mazara, but he's a measurably better move all things considered than handing Ozuna a 5 year $90M contract. I wouldn't have made the Mazara move at this juncture myself, but I think its a much better long term move than overpaying a DH close to $100M and committing to the worst OF defense in the league for half a decade.

Whatever dude. I am not excited about Mazara - but you're also the guy that would complain when Ozuna becomes a dogshit asset making $18M AAV in 2 years. Ozuna is not worth what he's going to get paid, and clogging your OF long term with an expensive player that isn't a good defender isn't a good baseball move. Funny that you of all people were in the minority of people who actually wanted to sign Ozuna. Seems like you just want money spent for the sake of money spent - to hell with it being a smart deal long term. But your tune will certainly change when those deals get into the "fuck, we really shouldn't have done that" stage.

Teams usually don't use elite trade assets to dump salaries. Especially not organizations like the Rays.

He also was way down on Moncada, and that hasn't turned out super well. Not sure if he's changed his tune on Robert, but he was lower on him than most everyone else this past summer.

Lol, those are legitimately the most useless things you could use to describe a player.

Not really, only a few people.

Yah, was referring to AAV.
