You realize that the extension argument is extra silly since it is also possible to "Sign guys as free agents"?

I'm just saying we shouldn't be upset we traded for Mazara IF he turns out to be real good. Those two years would be more valuable than 6 from Walker. It would also mean for 2 years we have a top 5 lineup in the AL.

You don’t think it’s possible that Walker becomes a sub-.800 OPS guy in the majors, just like Mazara?

The premise here is IF Mazara becomes worthy of an extension. I don't like him that much, but that was the debate. If he in fact becomes that good, then yes it would be better for us than having Walker for 6 years. Especially if we extend him.

February 8, 20206 yr Good news that the Twins didn't get a quality number 3 starter. I doubt Gatorade will be tradeable now after all of this.

February 8, 20206 yr Some really boorish juvenile desperados abusing Twitter followers. I would not give them any publicity.

February 8, 20206 yr Does NOT St*ve read this board and then just throw shit out on Twitter? Not sure what Maeda does for the Sox at this point vs what would have to given up. Same goes for Joc if his previous cost was Bummer.

Isn't it obvious that the Sox would give up Gio Gonzalez thus having had him 3 times without ever playing for the Sox ? ?
