Here comes the cost controlled 4th starter........or if it's LaStella does that mean Madrigal's days are numbered......???

I don't like the idea of trading Madrigal unless it's for a really good cost controlled starter.  (Woodruff, Castillo, Burnes, Gray I could be talked into).

Boston lost JBJ so even if they sign Springer they cannot afford to move Benintendi unless they are getting one of our's back.

Agreed and I'm thinking it comes from that list you have.  You trade from your depth to upgrade and open up more funds if needed at trade deadline

He's not going for a Musgrove (or probably even Gray) type starter. He's going for a Castillo or Gonzalez.

either way honestly.

I'm laughing at the Red Sox fans on Twitter thinking they are getting Gray ++ from Cincy for Benintendi.  Don't have the heart to tell them that price ship has sailed:).  LOL

Hey!  They should shoot for the moon.  The dude almost had 5 hits last season!

 

Edit *** this is true.  He was 4/39 with 1 double.

For Benintendi? I wouldn't trade the Red Sox anything more than Reynaldo Lopez. Benintendi hasn't been good in like 3 years. I don't get this board's obsession with him.

Really good in 2018, meh in 2019, horrid in 2020.  Lopez for him would be fun, but don't see why the Red Sox would do that.

It's not necessarily about him, it's about the unwritten code of sports management ethics. You'd really piss his agent off, for one.

The Padres literally just traded their over-slot 2020 pick for Blake Snell.  The treatment of draft picks is very much different than that of free agents who are actually making a decision to sign with you over other teams.

The Padres pushed Cole Wilcox to the 3rd round signed him for $3.3M and just traded him to the Rays.  Teams can and will trade their players whenever they want.  

Didn’t see this post yet, but same example I just used.

He retweeted a guy that said Giolito/Lynn extensions afterwards so I'm assuming in regards to that.

Let's see both a 1 or 2 year extension for Lynn and a 5-6 year extension with Giolito!

I wouldn't call that a "move" though.. hmmmm. Either way I'd be happy with a Giolito extension.

This is why Boston fans exist.

IF we trade for a controllable starter, without trading Kopech or Cease, I do not get the need to extend Lynn..  Just let it play out.  If Cease sucks again, you extend him.  If Cease is good, you pass.

If I were to guess I’m thinking they are trying to get a couple deals done. Maybe a trade as well.
