I think the Sox presentation is just having him watch The Blues Brothers in its entirety, in which case he can get a feel for the city that way.

Well said.

Vargas. And not in a “he can’t possibly be worse” way. I think he’ll get a little comfortable and actually show something.

Lol sox would have this dude playing RF by mid April.

I think he should apologize to the Sox for not taking steroids earlier in his career.

Because despite his flaws and injury risk, Robert’s ceiling is still incredibly higher than Bellinger’s, and that’s enticing. And it’s not like some Jared Mitchell or Courtney Hawkins scenario where it’s just theoretical upside. We’ve actually seen it from Robert very recently, on a god awful team no less, which is why I don’t love the MVP argument. There’s way too much team context that goes into it.

Took my dumb brain a second to process that the Sox did not in fact trade Chuck Garfien to the angels.

Just under. I expect the offense and bullpen to be a little better, but the starting pitching to be much worse.

They have indeed acquired Andrew Benintendi.

Sure, but “we’ll believe it when we see it” and “everything they do is bound to fail” are two completely different sentiments. Every single Sox fan should be saying “I’ll believe it when I see it.” That’s the exact skepticism that’s warranted with this dumb ass organization. But assuming everything they do will fail is not even skepticism, that’s just nihilism, which, why even bother at that point.

Gotta do Schultz first. I don’t make the rules.

This NY Post article is a nightmare on mobile so click at your own peril, but per Heyman: “The Yankees failed to land star left-hander Garrett Crochet because they wouldn’t part with both Jasson Dominguez and George Lombard Jr. The Mets also failed to land Crochet because they wouldn’t surrender the tandem of Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams.”

As a baseball fan, that’s a really fun trade.

So what’s next? Veteran SP? Kinda funny that they can probably promise whoever they’re courting the opening day nod.
