I am just saying, he’ll outplay these guys in the Spring. Cuz they bad.

Sure, he could.  But this team isn’t close enough to competing to burn a year of control on one of our top prospects.

And even if he does, send him down. 

My thing is I don’t want to watch them go 5-21 again next April. What I really want is for them to sign one more mlb outfielder.

In all honesty, this probably is just insurance in the event they move Robert.  This kid cost nothing but an immaterial amount of money and has options.  I don’t think this prevents us from adding a corner OF.

Agreed, but the OF will have to be cheap.  $5 million or less.  I’m not surprised they have talked to Conforto.

Pretty sure rushing the kid to the majors won't help that.

If this is as good as they can do, Braden Montgomery will be the Opening Day starter.

Stopgap moves are actually encouraging if you’re looking for a vote of confidence in him. I ain’t mad.

No way Braden doesn't get held back until the cut off date....that would be malpractice considering his lack of playing time at AA/AAA.

Exactly.  The Sox aren’t going to spend any serious coin on another outfielder because B. Montgomery is waiting in the wings.

Unless you choose to believe the O'Hearn stuff.

But he's almost exclusively LF DH 1B and not RF.

Jeez, I just realized TP is on the 40-man roster

Along with Ben Cowles, Derek Hill, and Everson Pereira. Sox are where DFAs go to languish. Roster is at 39 now, so it does not appear they are on the cusp of a FA frenzy. Although I'm pretty sure some of those guys could make it through waivers.

The last thing this franchise is worried about is the 40.  A large portion of it would clear with no issue.
