Lat the mason Adam's outrage commence

Don’t mind trading him. Just not for this

Sox must have seen Adams as someone who was going to get dropped in the impending 40-man crunch. But of course then he replaces him with a player on the 40-man.

Not good enough for the rotation and stuff wasn't going to play up in the pen compared to H.Smith and McDougal.

I’m…..confused…..how does this help us?

I don’t get this at all. Do you even tender Doyle a contract next year? They must have something in mind.

This is terribad to me, lord.

So much for Mason Adams the savior of the Sox rotation.

We traded Hill for scraps to then turn around and give up a legit pitching prospect for this guy? What in the f*** are we doing? How does this make us better short term or long term?

I'm guessing one of our other OFers goes for a catcher.

What the f*** is Getz doing?

Man, that is a lot to give for a back up outfielder who will be hard to keep on the roster. They have to be moving Grichuk, Hays, and/or Pereira somewhere in addition. Otherwise, you just traded assets to DFA useful players.

What do you like about it?

He’s a good defensive centerfielder

He has options

I trust Ryan Fuller

I’d rather have him than Austin Hays, assuming that’s the counter move

They didn’t trade Pereira, yet

Mason Adams wasn’t gonna be apart of the staff this year

I guess another possibility is that Braden's foot issue is a little more serious than expected.

I don’t want to see the quality of C we get back dealing Hays, Pereira or Grichuk haha

Someone must see a fix with Doyle.

There's no other logic to it at all...except for defensive replacement/PR/change of scenery.

Urquidy might be getting taken more seriously...?

My bigger concern is that in Castillo and Doyle, I’m not sure those moves make the 26 team better.

This might be the dumbest trade Getz has done yet

They just gave up Mason Adams for him. I think he's going on the roster.

The brain trust really must believe he can return to his gold glove and potential 30/30 power and speed combo.

Not a move I expected whatsoever.

5 hours left and a lot more is going to go down for our Sox.

Org rankings aren’t the most accurate valuation, but Adam’s is their 8th ranked prospect, and Vielma has been one of their more impressive DSL guys at only 16.

Awful value to get someone who benefited from the Coors effect two years ago but otherwise can’t hit or stay healthy.

I'm saying long term. Guy's got an OPS+ of 51.

That's like giving Acuna the RF job lol.

-0.5 fWAR is really tough to pull off with how good he was defensively 2-3 years ago.

Doyle = Adam Engel for better and worse I think is the way to look at it. Engel probably didn't show quite that much pop but was similarly one-dimensional as a hitter.

Boooooo!!!!!!

We just trading fringe top 10 prospects who have upside trust to trade them

The FO have built up some trust with me when it comes to making moves, but this one is testing that trust lol. I just don’t see it.
