December 22, 20205 yr @Y2Jimmy0 - Any sense if this is true? Seems far fetched Colas would wait another year to sign with the Sox, but then again maybe there are no teams left willing to pay what he’s looking for?

It's possible but that's a long time to not play for Colas. On the other hand, teams are out of $$ in this period.
December 22, 20205 yr Wow, if the Sox figure out a way to put both of those kids into the system in 13 months, that replaces a lot of graduating talent and gives them some future waves to add on with, or even deal from if needed. Much respect to Paddy if he was able to rebalance both Colas and Cespedes with the changes that just happened to the signing periods.
December 22, 20205 yr Landing Cespedes is a big move in and of itself. If Hamburger is right, than Marco Paddy is making big time moves.

Then again, thinking about this the other way, it means they still had a significant amount of cap space in a class that was supposed to begin in less than 7 months.
December 22, 20205 yr Love this move. A much needed shot in the arm on the position player side of things for the minors.

December 22, 20205 yr This is a pretty damning indictment. Trading the funds made no sense at the time. Edited December 22, 20205 yr by southsideirish71
