There are plenty of guys I’d trade. Just no point in selling rock bottom on a dude with 1-1 skills, who 15 months ago was filthy in the minors and approaching the fast track. Best piece I’d be willing to move is Rutherford in a deal for a SP. But I’d be willing* to trade guys like Yolmer, Leury, Palka, Delmonico, some arms like Bummer, Adams, Stephens, Mederios, Lambert, and Flores. Obviously not just willynilly trading guys for players that could just be signed on the FA market.

Hard pass on trading Alec Hansen right now.

This post is spot on IMO. Obviously you never draw a line in the sand, but the key guys are not going anywhere. I also think having too many good players is also a good problem to have. Joc Pederson is not blocking anyone right now.

I feel like Hector Gomez is just trying to make himself more famous by being Mannys insider / hype man. Getting close to trolling at this point. Has to keep his name out there.

I took the “added to” more as “more to come”...like there are additional details to share in the negotiations.

Cordell and Minaya are not getting you Joc Pederson.

Both Jay and Alonso have been high OBP players for the majority of their career. Neither has great 2018s, but both are legit Major League Baseball players on fairly paid contracts. Again; I like Palka, and if he were out of options my opinion would be different - but he couldn’t even crack .300 OBP last season. This team badly needs guys who can get on base. Palka Also provides zero defense of value. I just don’t understand the fuss. Having depth is very valuable.

Lol. I like Daniel Palka. To think that he’ll be a better player than Yonder Alonso next season is silly. He has an option left and can easily spend next season in Charlotte. You’re complianing for the sake of complaining (shocking).

Palka is not a better baseball player than Jon Jay.

Who is the worse player in this scenario?

Palka is NOT out of options.

Sweet take bro.

I dig it depending on the return.

Other offer in the lead is probably like 8/$200. Which Sox can and will torch.

If he signs for 8/$300M+ or 10/$360+, I will understand the Sox not going that far. but I don’t think that will happen.

I have to spend my weekend in a church for a catholic wedding retreat. So things could be worse guys.

Rodon was such a no brainer pick, using him as evidence is laughable.

A Cheesy Gordita Crunch was hopefully in the order.

I just took like a 2 hour lunch, hoped I'd jump back on with some real news. Instead all I get is a gif of a dude shaking a large sausage.

This. Not too worried about. Sort of expect Sox to give Abreu a 2 year deal after this season anyway.

Yah, I should have said all new era "on field" caps. And I totally agree. Hate it. As someone who wears a lot on field caps, I hate the logo there.

Yah that’s the one

That’s the small new era patch that is on all Mlb replica hats bro...

Yankees fans will just say they never wanted Machado and that Andujar is better.
