How are people convincing themselves that the Sox should trade depth away on a team that desperately lacks depth everywhere else. This is crazy talk about moving Vaughn or Eloy. 

Agreed.

Eloy’s upside is .330 with 40 homer potential.  He’s easily our most talented offensive weapon IMO. Especially if the ball isn’t as lively, I don’t see Vaughn hitting more than 30.

Ever ?

In a season I think Vaughn is capped around 30, yes

Barring a significant change in the official game ball, if a certain Mets' 1B can put up 50+, Vaughn can at least go for 35-40 in his best season.

I think he'll go beyond that. He's a strong guy, good plate discipline which to me means he also knows the right pitches to swing at. I 'd say he'll top 30 at least a few times but I'll gladly take an Anthony Rendon type hitter.
