Getz's signings last winter certainly weren't "build from the ground up" moves. It was pretty clear that Getz thought some vets and some defense would have them competitive in the division. Or at least better than the 101 loss team he took over.

Yeah, it's a nice payday coming off a career year, but it could quickly become bad money.

He probably thought the same thing last winter too and look how that turned out.

Challenge Accepted!

That fucking guy...

Vargas being DFA'd, going unclaimed, and accepting an assignment to AAA would be fine by me.

I really hope Schrif was kept on only because he was under contract. McKnight might be on the bland vanilla side, but he doesn't assault the senses at every opportunity. The product on the field is bad enough, at least give us a game call that's enjoyable.

There's a 35th in Martha's Vineyard? Who knew!

60 WAR, 3000 hits, 10 time All Star, MVP, ROY, 10 time Gold Glove, 3 time Silver Slugger, .311 career batting average over 2653 MLB games. This was all after he came to the States at age 27. Absurd that it wasn't unanimous.

Sox DH is the least of our worries...

Zero surprise. 🙄

That jumped out to me as well. Seems like the most kids from DR in recent years.

It's gonna be the Dodgers isn't it...

Too bad MLB experience hasn't helped Getz himself...

In all fairness, Getz's signings didn't bring defense or leadership either.

His hands were completely tied don't you know. And then when given control he engineered the worst team in modern history. But that wasn't his fault either. Ugh.

Holy s%*# we need actual baseball to talk about...

Funniest part about this Whatabout defense of a non-tender worthy 1B is that if the Sox cut him loose, how many of those teams with equally bad 1B would be lining up to give Vaughn $6M and a starting job? I would venture not many. At least with those other guys there is a history of good production, which can't be said about Vaughn.

This might be his biggest payday. Hope he's saving his pennies. 1B with below average D and warning track power aren't in high demand.

For a team crying poor, this is a gigantic waste.
