December 20, 20223 yr Jeff Mcneil doesn't make very much thou. MLB Trade rumors estimates 6.3MM. Definitely less than the 10MM escobar makes. You know what's more likely all.

You know what's more likely all. They will have to dump Escobar & McCann and potentially more . If they truly want Hendricks as rumored, conversation has to start with McNeil imo. I still think Correa signs with Giants anyways, so all moot speculation

I still think Correa signs with Giants anyways, so all moot speculation I'm just saying if you try to dump salary you typically start on the higher salary players not the lower, affordable players. Mcneil would be pretty far down the list for them unless we consume mccann for the pleasure.

Relatively inactive, sure, but Vazquez is a nice fit for them and Gallo has been very comparable to Benintendi (slightly better than Beni overall, but worse lately) on a holistic (WAR) basis throughout his career

Sox brass is just in love with Benintendi, that's all I've got. I'm not surprised the Sox acquired him, but what was surprising is that they didn't when Boston made him available.

Have to hope it works out as well as KW White Whale Javier Vazquez ($12M AAV, 4.03 bWAR per season).

December 21, 20223 yr Drury would have been an awesome fit here. Oh well. I don't think it'll happen, but I'd love to see the Sox pick up Profar. He checks a ton of the same boxes.

December 21, 20223 yr Maybe this will finally be the year the Angels build a functional team around the 2 best baseball players on the planet.
