Guy is 26 with one solid season under his belt two years ago and is arbitration eligible next season. He'd be swapping CF Robert for 3B/1B Robert. At least Acuna is younger and can maybe possibly play CF.Agreed. The Sox have made tons of mistakes but I don’t think passing on Vientos is one of them. He has a similar profile to Vargas and Sosa. They already don’t have enough room for Sosa as it is so I’m not sure where Vientos would’ve fit on this team anyway.

Vargas is separating himself from that profile.
