And just like Avi, Mazara may be on another team by the time that happens. Hence, my comment on only having 2 years of control.

December 16, 20196 yr And if he does boom with the Sox within the next two seasons, he becomes a free agent and another team can steal him away in free agency. While Mazara’s youth is great, his short two years of control negates quite a bit of its value. Edited December 16, 20196 yr by Moan4Yoan

It's not who the thread's about, it's the length of the deal. Good lord, you're having a bad trolling day.
December 16, 20196 yr Avi supposedly had 3 year offers out there but wanted to bet on himself after the new CBA.

If that number jumps to $9 or $10 million for 2021, it isn’t that far off from Avi’s new deal. Also, Mazara’s age doesn’t matter very much with only two years of control, unless you are talking about extending him. Lol the dude is arb eligible in 2021. It’s not a fucking commitment. This isn’t hard to understand. I love how you use Mazara’s 2 years of control as a negative both in terms of not wanting him for 2 years (while ignoring he’s arb eligible) and also a negative in that if he blossoms he’s gone after 2 years. It’s hilarious. Mazara won’t be on the Sox in 2021 unless he has a great 2020. He will be non tendered for a grand total of $0 USD. If he is on the Sox in 2021, it’s because he played great and they’re happy to pay him the $9M or whatever he’ll get in his final year of arb. If he blows up to the point the Sox are disappointed he becomes a FA after 2021, that is a good thing not a bad thing! Your trolling knows no bounds.

I fully expect Mazara to be the Sox right fielder for the next two seasons, whether he booms or if he continues his consistent 4 years of mediocre production. It’s simply the way the Sox work.
