A body to fill in once the big pieces get shipped out.

I love an acquisition where the cash considerations were probably paid in Walmart gift cards.

    I get why they did this of course but big picture what does it say about the organization that six years after the rebuild started in a so-called "window of contention' they are having to resort to pi

Coop will fix'em. There was a time kids when the Sox coaching staff could fix pitchers with potential. Way back around the turn of the 21st century. It was a magical time. It almost doesn't seem real anymore. 

Now we snap defeat from the jaws of victory.

I think they paid the bargain price of $9,999 with cash discount in a brown paper bag.

Power shift 

Cash considerations seems so 1970s

Let the Mike Mayer era begin!!!

honestly I don't think they have done enough of these transactions given how bad their AAA rotation has been and bottom of 40 man pitching wise. Not gonna s%*# on this.

Damaso Marte was a trade...along with Cotts.

Well, Matt Thornton. Who wasn’t a disaster before he got here. Just that the Sox shined him up and he became  a gem. They have tried to do this countless times, I don’t know if they thought they had the Midas touch. They don’t, and it hasn’t occurred to them they don’t.

He was a disaster with the Ms.

Just like Borchard with the Sox.

The quintessential change of scenery change.

Cooper fixed him up in just a couple of bullpen sessions.

Yonny Chirinos is currently in DFA limbo. He has a 4.02 ERA this season with the Rays. Solid option to slot into the rotation.
