Stuck with Kimbrel again. I remember a time many years ago when we ended up with one of the best LH relievers in baseball because they were going to be a spring training roster cut and would have been exposed...Damaso Marte. Pretty sure Thornton was the other one. Although one would doubt it's Micker Adolfo or a White Sox reliever having similar success if given an opportunity. What I got from this is that Micker Adolfo is going to be converted to a LH reliever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No...that Kimbrel being on roster carries yet another danger. Which amounts to losing a bullpen arm we wouldn't have had to if not for this particular situation. Everyone was already reconciled to losing Adolfo, so he becomes the most obvious aspect of any trade package at this point. Along with an elevated risk of injury to Kimbrel. The Sox would get roughly $8~10 million back, assuming he's insured in a similar fashion to David Wells in 2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading Stanton, Yelich, Ozuna, Gordon, Realmuto should have hypothetically yielded more than the Sox tear down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Graveman and Kelly both would be considered riskier I suppose. Edited March 22, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea it guarantees Matt 24 million or so in case his hip flares up again and the blue jays take on some downside risk in order to you know, as you said, keep the relationship solid and bet on individual and team success.

Today's lineup leads is going to piss me off all year as Sheets/Vaugh are the "second" clean up men who can drive in the low OBP guys ahead of them who are never on base so when both have 18 RBI at the all-star break they will appear to be failing and the Sox will need to trade for a big DH bat but instead will add a RP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
