They have already said they are willing to take on payroll.

7.5 for someone you don’t really need would be crazy.

Yeah, I don’t think Springer really adds anything here. But the fact that they are willing to take on money will hopefully help them get pitching.

The Sox’s revenue is up a fuckton vs. expectations…there is cash to be burn.

Unfortunately Detmers doesn’t have a huge salary so it won’t come into play when we acquire him.

Ray & Gausman both have $7.5M+ left on their deals this year. That’s going to be a big number for a lot of clubs. That’s where the Sox money will help.

Add Detmers and one of the other two and we are fucking cooking.

Horrible use of payroll dollars. And honestly, there is a greater scarcity of bats this deadline than SPs.

I seriously doubt Detmers is moving anywhere, let alone to our Sox.

Angels should move him now with a potential stoppage ahead. He’ll be a lot less valuable if next year gets wiped out.

Mariners wouldn’t do it, but it’s not the worst idea. If you extend Mune, there becomes an odd man out.

I doubt it happens but I kind of agree. Everyone wants to trade Meidroth but I think Montgomery has the riskier long-term profile (in part due to his back) and simultaneously should have more trade value

Did you just call a team that will be in 1st place on August 1st a rebuilding team?

Don't be naive.
