Red Sox should have paid the man.

I probably would have non-tendered before that deadline or DFA'd him today over Haseley personally.

If you're going to discredit any season Eloy has an injury or surgery, you will never be able to fairly judge him lol

He’s better off getting into the pitching lab in LA to see if they can make some tweaks and make him more consistent. Also near home. Good fit.

Oh yeah, I figured $3M tops. Guy is lucky he didn’t get an MiLB deal after his last few years.

Very slow work week for me this week (until the new month begins) so I already know they will pull off a deal around 10PM on Thursday or Friday at 10AM.

It makes too much sense to not happen, especially if he maybe takes a multi-year deal with an opt out after year 1.

I don't think so. He came over at the age of 28. And if he was a free agent in Japan, there wouldn't have been a posting fee. I haven't looked if he was just a free agent yet or not.

Just fans posting ideas. That's about it and doesn't matter that its trending.

I have a feeling the O’s are one of those teams that may prospect hug a little too tightly.

Agreed

They gotta think big picture. Patch the MLB roster with free agents if they want to pretend.

That first contract he signed with the Dodgers was insanely cheap. 8 years/ $25M? Damn.

Could see it too I just wish they didn’t decide to fill their rotation with 2 #5s last week. Matz may end up being moved to the pen or traded though so there still might be another spot open.

Yeah, there really shouldn’t be a rush.

Nastrini, Bush, Eder is not nearly enough man. Get a top 100 position player and top 100 arm in a deal.

Not nearly enough

I meant in a deal back for Cease. But the 2 bigger pieces in a deal being pitching also isn't the end of the world.

The 2 bigger pieces being position players and then 2 lesser pieces being pitching wouldn't be terrible but trading an arm like Cease, I feel like you need one of those big pieces to be an arm.

Yeah I noticed it’s a full day shorter. Bummer.

Feels like this guy will go sometime during the Winter Meetings next week.

I like the fit there. I would have preferred for them to sign another mid-rotation type arm than the two number 5's they signed last week (Lynn and Gibson).

Incorrect. Holmes is actually a Sox fan. Just jaded like most of us.

Talking about Outman.

Yeah not as the main headliner at least.
