Minimal return = buyer's market because Marte would be a perfect fit for us. I have no desire of having a collection of two 4th outfielders, two natural 1B and a designated pinch runner as our RF options
July 28, 20214 yr So to keep score of the AL teams at the moment: HOU: Kendall Graveman OAK: Starling Marte BOS: TBR: Nelson Cruz CHI: Only three moves so far, but all of them fairly impactful and plenty time for these guys to do much more. The idea we don’t need another bat is nonsensical IMO.

Dude was a 60 FV prospect and still has plus velocity for a lefty, but has also been garbage this year. Still four years of control with the upside he possesses is probably a smart gamble.

July 28, 20214 yr He's 23 with a better than 3/1 K/BB. Young with a lot if potential and MLB experience. He's a nice piece to get for Marte.

July 28, 20214 yr Even with Luzardo sucking, I don't think the Sox have a single talent level like that down in the minors to match that.
July 28, 20214 yr I know Luzardo has been ass this year, but this is like trading Cease last year. If these are the prices then idk how the Sox can get anything done really.
