Squirmin' for Yermin

literally NO ONE has said he is a TOR starter .....

Let him walk

Give me: Wheeler, JD Martinez, Puig, Betances and Pineda with another RP. I think this is realistic and about what will happen. Now here's some fun.... Let Abreu walk, save his 30 million on 2 years and use that money (with extra) to go after Donaldson for 1B..

If the Sox simply choose Abreu over JDM, this organization is a complete joke.. If we give Abreu more than 2 years regardless, this organization is a complete joke. I am on the side of having JDM as our #1 priority for offense. Having him as DH and signing Abreu to a 1 year deal, club option for year 2.

We would love Price at 16 million per year.

and yet Catcher would still be a hole.

This is accurate

I agree with most everything you say! I like you

again.... 70 of those games you listed have a bad hitter at DH... makes no sense carrying 3 C. Grandal's entire value is dependent on him playing C.. He is not a DH

loll.. so who DHs the 100 games when he is catching? McCann? Collins? The whole, "lets carry 3 catchers so they can alternate at DH" is a complete and utter joke when 2 of those can't hit..

GRANDAL DOES NOT SOLVE DH

I'd much prefer him to Avi. Obviously I have 5+ guys ahead of him. But he'd be cheap, and a big improvement. He has averaged 2.5 WAR his past 10 seasons

after watching the Astros again.. He's a guy I would be completely fine with.

I'd rather give him a chance than give Ozuna 100million or re-tread down the terrible Avi path.

Sounds like a terrible team

Dozier and Kipnis would both be cheap veteran options. Dozier has far more upside but Kipnis is LH and is familiar with our division

I don't think the amount of money given out is unrealistic.. I think signing the #4-8 free agents is unrealistic. There are other teams.

I'm taking into account his past few years as well.

I actually think those contracts will be pretty accurate. He may be a tad low on McHugh but a tad high on Wood.

I am honestly SOOOO baffled by the overwhelming support of Grandal >>>> JD Martinez. It really doesn't make a ton of sense to me. Literally a top 3 hitter in the game. I understand Grandal is a good hitter and defender. But my lord, what catchers actually catch into their mid-30s and are successful? Certainly not many, if any. Plus many of you want to sign Grandal to DH him 2-3 times a week to get McCann in the lineup.... Isn't that what JD would do but on a far higher scale. LH vs RH batter matters if the hitters are close to the same scale.. But they are't even in the same stratosphere. I simply don't get it.

This is basically everything going right and us signing ALL of the big names outside the big 3 (Cole, Stras, Rendon). Sadly won't happen

Hasn't JDM made it pretty obvious he is going to opt out? And haven't the Red Sox made it clearly they'd like him to opt out

and the Mets have Cespedes coming back... hmmmmmmmmm he'd be a super interesting buy-low candidate for RF, assuming they'd take on some of his contract

well without their help we wouldn't have Eloy or Cease.... Keep being dumb plz.

he literally said as a DH.... He would be the perfect DH, should we not land Martinez
