I know I’m one of the few who wants Richards, but it’s going to be immensely disappointing when he signs elsewhere because of Jerry’s cheapness.

    It could be worse. You could be a White Sox fan watching a team in the beginning stages of completely squandering a window because ownership is too chicken shit to take a risk to win a championship. A

    You're right. Adding Darvish and Snell doesn't move the needle much.

I think if there was a poll about all the leftover SP and you only included pitchers who seem likely to get 1 year deals in the $5-10M range Richards might be at the top of that list . There's just a lot of choices and opinions. One choice is as likely to be as good or as bad as another.

If Angels get serious about Bauer, I wonder if Canning could be had?

The Angels aren’t giving up any decent pitchers.

This. They need the help in the rotation.

He has a great sense of humor.  So must all of the fans cheering for the team he's pitching for.

Outside of Ruth, how many Yankee Red Sox trades historically?

Did we all forget that Joc Pederson is still a Free Agent? I haven't seen anyone mention his name in months.

I did forget, but mostly because we have Eaton.  I'd love him for DH/LF.  Have you heard anything?  Didn't you have sources?

I think someone mentioned him yesterday. If we don't sign Cruz, I would be cool with him being a DH against righties and then Eaton shifting to LF with Engel in RF and Eloy DH against lefties. Eaton isn't a blackhole against lefties compared to Joc.

This - they also are probably the place that makes the most sense for Bauer. If they are going to try with Trout - they are going to need to hit on a few big name free agents + obviously really see strong development from home grown players.

This is a sneaky good deal, if you prorate his 2020 season, he was almost a 5 WAR player. Of course he’s not that good, but he should still a 2-3 WAR player on a team friendly deal for 2 years. On the Sox he would have made it a lot easier to move Madrigal.

Also frankly, it’s still crazy we jumped the gun to pay a worse player $7M at RF.

Talked to my buddy about that a couple days ago. It would be something if the Sox circled back to Joc and maybe his asking price dropped.

Ivan Nova on a minors deal to the Phillies.  I'd have loved that if it was strictly a minors pact as an injury replacement (thinking our 7/8 guy). Arms will be needed this year!

DH and spell Eloy in LF.. Easy. Provides insurance for Eaton and Eloy as well for their almost guaranteed injuries.  And if one of Eaton or Joc suck, if Vaughn appears ready, he replaces them and relegates them to a bench spot. Really don't have to look that hard to see it's a great fit still.

I would like it but if they want to promote Vaughn for most of the season, good luck making one of Eaton or Joc sit

Joc has been a platoon guy for quite a while so at least he's used to a non-everyday role. Also, if Eaton still stinks I think it would make the decision pretty easy.

I mentioned him in the cruz thread.
