There’s a reason Getz traded for Castillo — because he thought he still had ace potential and knew he can’t afford one in free agency.Not sure what’s not clear here. We spent a lot of money at the deadline. Getz didn’t add a second SP because he was prospect hugging. Jerry is not the reason we didn’t add two SPs at the deadline.

You are so broken from years of being a Sox fan under Jerry that you just scream “cheap ass Jerry” even in the rare moments he isn’t being. Not going waste one more second arguing for something that isn’t even debatable.

The Sox added one real salary at the deadline, and they even had to add a more significant prospect to get them to take on Dominguez, for a team 29th in major league payroll. It's all there.

1 hour ago1 hr FWIW, I don't have an issue with either King or Peralta. But their values will be inflated from how well they pitched in the postseason. I don't think we should take 20 innings pitched in the playoffs that seriously. It really isn't an indicator of future success.

And Peralta was better instantly after being traded from a bad Mets defensive team Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by Bob Sacamano

It really isn't an indicator of future success.King is about 15 innings over his previous career high in 2024, which included a dozen post season innings versus this seasons 14. I guess the other half of that is that he DID get hurt in 2025. Nothing else about his 2026 is out of line with the rest of his numbers. If you view the Mets stint as an aberration, there is also nothing out of line about Peralta's numbers when compared to the rest of his years.

14 minutes ago14 min Evan Phillips getting 35 mil guaranteed is fucking insane. I really don't want to waste money on relievers. Just sign a B+ SP, another B+ SP and a decent starting caliber OF and call it a day.
