August 2, 20223 yr 1 minute ago, A-Train to 35th said: Sox should offer to pay a portion of Grandal's salary, Sheets and Eloy to the Cubs for Contreras and Happ Contreras is a FA, right? Or one more year? Happ is through 2023 for sure. That sounds like a trade that would cost half the farm again.

This just seems to be the bottoming out and the reality that there will be an entirely new regime starting in the off-season. The amount of money and resources this team has put on mediocre and depth guys vs. focusing on top talent is just mind blowing (and that is all on Rick - I can give him a pass for the TLR fiasco but he is not innocent). you could see signs well before.. the machado debacle, the trade deadline during the pandemic season

Imagine how stupid everyone would look if the Cubs resigned him in the offseason.

They went out and got a guy who could pinch run in the playoffs but didn't bother getting a useable third starter. It really made no sense.

Yes, he's a free agent Cubs are holding out for a deadline blockbuster deal, and should get a haul, but I hope the Sox don't bite and give up prospects for either.

August 2, 20223 yr Just now, fathom said: MLB Network is blasting the Sox right now They deserve about 4500 at tonights game.
August 2, 20223 yr Twins gave up their 7th, 18th, and 23rd prospects for Mahle. That doesn't seem bad at all.

August 2, 20223 yr I remember when it was Hahn’s first trade deadline as GM… and I thought: ”Good for him, he’s showing the league that he isn’t afraid to hold his cards if other GM’s don’t meet his price. That’s a good way to earn some respect for years to come.” Well it has quickly become apparent that in reality that he just plane sucks.

August 2, 20223 yr Meh. I feel like I normally would be upset about the Sox sitting out the deadline, but this dead-ass miserable no offense team has me resigned to not caring at all at this point.
