Merkin said to be patient. I wonder if he means like last year when Hahn got Harrison and Kelly and Pollock and Velasquez. Or at the deadline when apparently there was nothing to do.

Hahn waiting for the right deal to present itself, and will act accordingly. No worries.

  • Patient would be fine - if the Sox had a track record for delivering on those statements.

    Which is the exact reason we should trade Hendriks.  We aren’t a closer away from winning the World Series and should take advantage of this market.

I am hearing from a source that the Sox actually had the best offer, the A’s should have taken it. Sox offer not what the A’s were asking for however.

Man, I'm gonna be pissed when Houston gets Varsho and we see the haul. Would be perfect on the Sox. Will be a superstar in Houston.

Esteury rhymes with Leury. Nuff said ! Legend in the making.

Rosenthal is also reporting Houston is still in on Brantley and Conforto and may sign TWO outfielders.

Do we have any interest in any of their (ARI) outfielders?

We have several prospects not named Montgomery or Colas better than the trash the A's just got back for Murphy who was supposed to be highly coveted...

That’s true, I have no idea what happened there.  Guardians have double digits prospects that could have got that done.

I wish other teams valued Crochet lol

I am not disappointed the Sox didn't acquire Murphy as if we're going to be firing off our limited bullets, I'd prefer it before for something other than the catcher position.  But that return is so questionable.  Like how did the Brewers finagle their way into this thing.  Very strange.

Probably Crochet, Burger, and Sheets.

Yeah getting Contreras was a homerun for them.

Ramos, Sosa, Vera, Rodriguez, Schultz, Burke, and Mena are all legitimate prospects

Why did Atlanta cut bait on Contreras so soon? This trade seems like a reaction to all the spending by Mets and Phillies.

Sorry. It was a  jokey joke. Basically the Machado situation where the Sox poison pilled their own offer where the Sox pretended to be big fish and got some publicity and good will. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Sox are allegedly in on everything and everyone. But gosh darnit just fall short.

I'm pretty sure the Braves wanted to trade Contreras to Oakland. But Oakland didn't want him and wanted Ruiz instead so they basically flipped him to Milwaukee with Payamps. I'm not sure what the A's see in Ruiz to make them trade a guy like Contreras for him.

Seriously, how did Cleveland not beat this deal? It's not like Atlanta has a good system. 

Not a team in the league offered more than that bag of s%*# for Murphy?  I'm not sure I understand the state of this league anymore.

Are they? Reading conflicting reports on a lot of those guys 

 

 

Since I live here in Wisconsin, and the Brewers are my 2nd team, this is good news for me I guess . why do I feel like ****.
