Another name to watch on the Red Sox trade front…

I’m told they’ve been in contact with the White Sox regarding IF Lenyn Sosa pic.twitter.com/P3YDItv6Us

I feel like I’ve read this same article in each of the past three offseasons now.  And I am sure I will read it again a couple more offseason until Ishbia takes over.

Do you like his writing style in this article? Why do you keep reading the same article?

Where did Garfein say that? I’d like that gamble a lot.

Meyers doesn’t really do anything for me honestly. But he seems to mash at the Rate.

Takes another CF off the trade market.

Jacoby Meyers the Jaguars' WR maybe.

Rays to sign former Mets/Cards starter turned reliever S.Matz

https://www.mlb.com/news/steven-matz-rays-contract

 

Looks like they want him as insurance for starting rotation.

"There’s a decent amount of uncertainty in the rotation behind Drew Rasmussen and Ryan Pepiot. The Rays have Shane McClanahan and Shane Baz lined up for spots. McClanahan will be on an innings limit after consecutive missed seasons. Baz was inconsistent and is at least a theoretical trade candidate. Ian Seymour is probably the in-house favorite to work as the fifth starter, but Tampa Bay is likely to add a veteran innings eater or two. It remains to be seen if the Rays will give Matz an opportunity to compete for a back-end rotation job."

I’m sure you know what I meant.  Rinse and repeat.

Agreed.  Historically, he hasn’t been able to hit much and he’s turning 30 next summer.  Besides, don’t we have Getz’s CF prospect acquisition Samuel Zavala ready to take over CF soon?

Oh someone wrote Jacob...but isn't he referred to as Jake most commonly?

Yes, looks like his name is Jake on MLB.com.

Sox are interested in CF Jacob Meyers (per McTaggert) and RHP Dustin May (per Garfein)

I love the May idea

Like Meyers if it means no Hill getting significant playing time...but a relatively strong 2.3 fWAR means they will ask for Davis Martin in return as they need rotation help.

Not sure how that helps the team long term as Meyers is already 29.

Obviously Meyers would replace Robert in terms of the roster.

 

Dustin May it's going to come down to price as well as basically a guaranteed rotation spot to rebuild his value.

So basically a sign and flip guy if things go well in all likelihood.

If they trade for Robbie Ray, they could have a rotation with Kay, May, and Ray

May makes too much sense.

Tres Garcias!

 

Looks like the DBacks are determined to trade Ketel Marte for young pitching help....Boston rumored to be one of the most interested teams...

Schwarber F.Valdez E.Diaz and Skubal to the win offseason for the Mets again?

 

Matz apparently signed a two year deal with TB.  No $$$ announced yet.

Jays pursuing Robert Suarez as closer.

He’s the perfect add to the rotation at this point.  Swing for the fucking fences and hope for the best.

May we interest you in Edgar Quero?

Crochet for Teel.

Trade Crochet to Dodgers for Rushing.

Trade Rushing next year back for Crochet.

Trade Crochet to Cubs for Ballasteros.

Teel might be our biggest untouchable.  If we move a catcher, it’s going to be Quero or Lee.

Sounds like they should have sent us Mayer or Anthony instead.
