@redsoxstats The reporters on MLB Network saying the Sox are in on Sale, Quintana, Joe Smith.. saying Sox could be after a Sale & David Robertson package

Wasnt there kind of a big power struggle behind the scenes because of this exact thing last season?

 

Not so much a power struggle but the dynamic is strained.

Ah, ok. Thank you for the clarification!

Robertson definitely seems in play for Boston

Should I know who Joe Smth is?

 

His wife is beautiful

Should I know who Joe Smith is?

The sidearmer that was on Cleveland and is now on the Angels.

Gun to head (assuming they do move these players):

 

Quintana ➡️ Dodgers

Robertson ➡️ Red Sox

Cats out of the bag I guess. I was told Red Sox are definitely talking to the White Sox about Robertson

Robertson for Moncada... that's a total Red Sox fan thought there lol

And it begins.

 

Sale to the Red Sox for Moncada, Benintendi, Devers, Kopech, +

 

Quintana to the Dodgers for Urias, Bellinger, Verdugo, +

Was going to do this before, but here's your potential 2019 roster with these trades. We'd also have a boatload of money and an epic free agent class to spend it on to fill in the gaps (obviously not all these guys would work out). Someone please tell me how holding onto Sale and/or Quintana makes more sense?

 

1B: Bellinger

2B: Moncada

SS: Anderson

3B: Devers

LF: Verdugo

CF: Benintendi

RF: Eaton

DH: Abreu

C: Collins

 

#1: Urias

#2: Rodon

#3: Fulmer

#4: Kopech

#5: Adams/Hansen

 

CL: Burdi

SU: Jones

Ya with Kimbrel hurt, I expect them to land a package of Q and Robertson.

If I had to guess, probably Swihart in the deal.

Are they prepared to give up Moancada, Swihart, Benintendi, and Bogaerts?

 

*That is officially the craziest "fleecing" deal I've ever typed out.

Yep, I hope people aren't expecting too much in a Robertson deal (especially with the money still owed)

It doesn't. But the Sox have to hold their ground and get what they want. They will because they're in no rush to give their star SPs away. That's a big bonus for us.

That's like Playstation. Make it happen KennyRick

If Q is going to the Dodgers, my prediction is for Urias/Bellinger/Verdugo

I'm sure Hahn is asking for Bogaerts, one of JBJ or Betts, Moncada and Benintendi.

Have to get Urias back IMO.

To be fair, Sale is also like Playstation.

If they're giving you Bogaerts and Moncada, that's enough right there to get rid of Sale. Bogaerts is just as valuable as he is right now.

Have to get Urias back IMO.

 

Any deal with the Dodgers sans Urias is a failure.

Have to get Urias back IMO.

 

Well barstool wsox seems to know the players/teams involved, and he mentioned something about how he'd need a top 5 prospect coming back. Only one close to that on the Dodgers is Urias.

To be fair, Sale is also like Playstation.

Yeah, on Easy Mode
