Started thinking about some additions the Sox could make in the coming months and took a look at the standings...anyone else think the Brewers would be motivated to move Braun? Sure, the contract couple with his age makes him a little less attractive, but the contract could also reduce the package needed to grab him. A right handed bat isn't exactly what we need right now, but you can always shuffle the order to break up the RHH. He's on track to have another big year and he would look great in the middle of the order with Abreu and Frazier for the next couple years. Add the fact that they have the LaRoche money (and Danks after this season) to dampen the blow of his contract and he starts to look like a very interesting option.

How about no f***ing way?

I hated having to see Brett Myers on my team. Ryan Braun isn't that far off. Absolute scum.

Hoping Colorado becomes terrible. Cargo is my preferable OF

The LHH is nice but his splits are just awful. Atleast Braun his both righties and lefties well.

Sure, let's take all the douches everyone hates. Can we get Papelbon too?

No because LaRoche isn't here for him to choke

There's a huge different between taking PEDs and beating women. Yeah, Braun's a douche and handled the PEDs thing wrong, but he's not it Myers class.

 

Didnt he question someone's credibility and get that person fired from their job?

I meant in regards to Braun's systematic destruction of a man's life.

 

I should rephrase it. He'd be the closest we'd get to Myers, who is scum of the earth.

eh...I wouldn't call them awful. With the exception of last year, he's been serviceable against lefties, while crushing righties. I'm ok with his career splits. He's a really good defender as well, with a decent arm.

I'm guessing you hate Melky?

 

edit: ok there was more, forgot about how he tried to ruin that guys life

Braun is 32, in the first year of a 5/105 deal and had lower back surgery last winter. No thank you.

No

And don't need to clear out the farm for a slugger either. Need an on base guy. Our 3-5 are excellent.

Braun is a sea of red flags, starting with his contract and injury history.

No thanks. Like others have said with that contract on back issues hell no.

Not a fan of Braun but he can still rake. The DH slot might keep him healthier too. Would need the Brewers to eat some of that contract though considering he's probably only got another 2-3 good years left in him.

As a desperate move to stay in the race for this year? No.

 

Come to think of it. No.
