Are you confident the Sox would dish out a contract similar to Trout's? It would take a huge offer like that.

I think he is adamant on testing free agency. I also expect them to get a package that includes at least one Top 100 prospect.

Hall of Famer? Person living a great life (career accomplishments, married to a model, earned millions of dollars in career)? Both answers seem to be yes.

Let's see how long of a deal Abreu signs first. Hopefully they go year-to-year with him.

Do we really need help at catcher though? Even if McCann regresses with the bat, he still handles the staff really well. Sign a better bat to DH and a good defensive backup to be the primary backup or third catcher depending on what they do with Collins.

I like Kendrick as a bench idea.

Yeah, Haniger isn't left-handed. And d'Arnaud can do better than third catcher on another team considering he hits 3rd for the Rays. They could even bring him back.

Can't wait for Last of Us 2!

Wait do you mean "how do they handle it?" You would just look at the percentages.

I'd still rather wait a year. Hes not signing an extension with one year left anyway so just wait.

Man this really bothered you, huh? Triggered to the point where this was actually thread-worthy haha

I definitely wouldn't touch that contact.

I agree that he is the greatest of all trolls.

Agreed 100%.

ESPN for you. I'm just shocked any Sox player is on there.

Why not just go with Anderson in the leadoff spot without Garcia. Also, grab Mendick an OF glove.

As someone who still plays and catches in the leagues I play in, it's annoying when I catch a ball a little awkwardly thinking a breaking ball is going to break more only for the ump to tell me I cost the pitcher a strike. If you're seeing that it is perfectly over the plate, why does matter how I catch it? Just call it a strike.

Agreed 100%. Was just saying this to a couple of buddies the other day. I just miss watching competitive baseball from the beginning of the season until the end (well, they always used to fade in the 2000s it seemed). Only this time, let's sneak some more post-season appearances in there.

Nimmo is a good player. And with 3 years of control.

I would think Nimmo is more attainable.

Definitely in a spot where this series isn't meaningful and it doesn't matter if they don't play one or two of the games.

Pass.

A-fucking-men. I felt the exact same way. Both of your reasons. Haven't gotten it since 2017 either and it feels good having the extra ~$130 in the pocket (by not buying 18 or 19). I will also be buying next year.

What are you willing to deal for Conforto?

From when you were talking about it previously, I was going to tell you to keep looking anyway just in case it fell through since it was so far away.
