Add him to the top of my RP list with resigning Colome and taking a flier on Kirby Yates.

Adam Duvall is absolutely the wrong complement to our offense but just throwing it out there that I like him and think he’ll be a good player next year

Read some weird stuff that Yanks were looking at Andrelton Simmons for SS and we’re tired of Gleybars defense.

So...Urshela, Simmons, Torres, lemahieu, Voit? What gives?

Also saw where they might be favorite to sign Schwarber.  Voit has been rumored as trade bait.

Utterly ridiculous the NL-DH stuff hasn't been sorted out yet.

It's by design, owners want to flood the unsigned player market to lower salaries, trying to get yet another garbage 16 team playoff for next year, perhaps even more teams. Wouldn't be surprised if owners will cancel 100 games out of the regular season yet again next season, just for spite and to set up the CBA negotiations.

Would hope the players consider walking out in September if they owners pull that shit again, and they don't sign any agreement without the wiggle room to walk out before the playoffs, the only thing owners give a shit about.

That would be dumb. Took so long to accumulate assets only to flippantly trade them with a significant long term WAR loss

yes it would be.

Welp, that was fast. Knebel could be an amazing bargain at $5.1M.

Lol at Al’s Beef straight losing:

 

Well good news is it shouldn’t be costly to acquire any necessary middle relief help.

I don’t even know where to focus honestly. Still have my crush on Tony McGee. I don’t think it changes affordability of top line guys, but if scouts all like a guy go get em for a nickel

Sure it’s been mentioned but Dahl would be a nice fallback option. 

If the Sox do dump prospects for a RF, who's your guess for most likely target?

who's your preferred (realistic) target?

RF trade? Calhoun as most likely.

If they acquire someone in a trade to plug RF, I doubt it would be anyone that would cost big time prospects. If they miss out on Springer, I'm personally ok with them going with Pederson, Bradley, the Korean OF, gambling on Dahl for RF and trading for a SP.

I really do think everything but starters will come at a discount this winter.

I agree, but doubt his price would be that much with Arizona going nowhere and only being under control for one year.

Anybody see Bruce Levine on Marquee say the Cubs might sign George Springer lol he’s worse than Portillos, Al’s etc

Dahl is a possible option if the Sox truly aren't looking to spend significant $ on Springer.

How does his injury issues effect him moving forward? Seems strange they'd cut him in his first year of arb when he probably wouldn't cost that much.

Dahl has always had really disparate Rocky Mountain splits.  Is there a tangible reason why Dahl was so bad last year?
