It’s insane how long of a leash Covey has had with this organization. He might be one of the worst pitchers in the history of baseball to get more than a handful of starts, and I’m not exaggerating either.

I want them to DFA Covey because I would cry tears of joy if he never pitched for the Sox again.

For who? A reliever?

Brad Miller.

Sox should sign Pedro Strop, Cody Allen, and Danny Salazar to minor league deals with invites to spring training. Whoever has the best spring gets that final spot in the bullpen. Or they could just sign Collin McHugh.

Trade for Edwin Diaz and then this team will be ready to go to war.

I’m really in no hurry to bail the Cubs out of financial hell, but the Sox trading for Kimbrel would be interesting if they could get him for pretty much nothing.

I’d rather trade McCann than Collins to be honest.

As of now, Marshall, Cordero, Fry, Herrera, Bummer, and Colome are all locks to be in the bullpen next year. Assuming the Sox go with an 8 man bullpen, that leaves 2 open spots. Maybe someone like Ian Hamilton or Zack Burdi will earn a spot during Spring Training, but I’d like to see the Sox bring in at least one veteran reliever. I’m not thrilled with Cishek but at least he’s dependable.

I hope so. I feel like it’ll be Cishek and then a veteran non-roster invitee.

The Sox have had a good offseason but I just don’t understand why they are letting relief options come off the board left and right. The bullpen is easily one of the biggest question marks for this team and they’ve done basically nothing to address it.

What are the Sox doing

For better or worse, I don’t see him signing with the Sox at this point. So I’ll be happy as long as he doesn’t go back to the Cubs. Make this offseason even worse for them.

The Sox need to get a reliever ASAP. The options are dwindling fast.

I think I’m in the minority here, but I would love to see the Twins sign Josh Donaldson. Giving a 34 year old over 100 million dollars doesn’t usually work out too well and that contract crippling them in the future would be fantastic.

Another good laugh right here

Would the Sox be able to even sign him? I know they were penalized for awhile after the Robert signing. Don’t really know how the international signing rules work.

McCann as part of a package for Edwin Diaz?

I feel like the Sox are going to get Cishek but I’d prefer Hudson.

3 years is a long time for a 35 year old...maybe passing on him wasn’t a bad idea after all

FUCK

This isn’t entirely accurate though. The Tatis trade essentially started the whole rebuild process because Shields was so bad. If that trade never happened, there’s no guarantee that the team would look the same as it does right now.

I could see Robert starting 2020 similarly to how Eloy started 2019, but there’s no reason why he won’t be able to adjust.
