December 22, 201510 yr I can think of one SoxTalk member that will be most unhappy about this. Depending on the money De Aza isn't a bad idea as a platoon partner for Lagares. The problem is when De Aza has to play the field, good grief is he bad.
December 22, 201510 yr Couldn't stand the guy. Still makes me happy to think that he's not here anymore.

December 22, 201510 yr QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Dec 22, 2015 -> 12:45 PM) This could set up the Granderson to Sox theory I suggested earlier. Owed $31M over next years. What would they want for him?

I don't know but KW likes the guy and you know how that goes. $31M is way less than what these other guys are going to get and it fits our "window." I'm just throwing it out there, not promoting it.

I'm gonna play devil's advocate here and try and run with your theory because, well, nothing going on right now. How about the Sox trade Avi and Melky to the Mets, the Sox get Grandy for RF and sign Gordon for LF.
December 22, 201510 yr Rosenthal: De Aza’s contract guarantees him $5.75MM in 2016, Rosenthal now reports (Twitter link). He can also earn up to $1.25MM worth of incentives, for a max payday of $7MM next season. His contract is pending a physical.

Not sure I would pay $7M, but he can produce
