The Sox should look at every starting position player on their roster and ask would this guy start for the Astros, Rays, Doders, Giants. etc. Engel and Leury are resounding no's. Same (obliviously) goes for Cesar and he was their plan A plan at 2B for this year and next, which obliviously isn't good enough.
This is just not sensible. Take a look at the Giants starting lineup below and tell me who on the Sox you would replace:
Are you really saying the Sox can't compete with guys like Wilmer Flores, Donovan Solano, and Lamonte Wade (Giants starters in the past 2 weeks)? Seriously, there are very few teams in MLB that have All Stars 1-9 in their lineup. Would you have taken the Astros CF before today? Jordan Luplow, Manuel Margot, Kevin Kiermaier? Get a grip it is ONE GAME.
