Vaughn is already negating a Conforto move, like it or not. Not to mention all the homegrown players the Sox have to find money to negotiate new deals for in the coming years
I believe the Sox were FOS a lot. Especially for Machado. The approach was basically to offer Machado what they think he should like better than what Machado wanted. It was a weird offer. Poison pilled their pursuit. Seemed a lot of it was like a public relations stunt. Have it our way! Would have been funny if Machado actually accepted the offer. This is what circumspect means.
the Sox are not volume players in mega dollar deals, I don’t know why you suggest they are..
Exactly. It is like people didn't think Hahn was serious or something. Dismissed out of wishful thinking? Believe who someone is, when they are telling you who they are.
The Sox have been very very circumspect when the mega dollar deals are in play for outsiders. I believe Hahn.
Ive seen Robert stay back and swing like that to keep the bat in the zone when he guesses wrong a little bit. That’s a talent, and he has the reserve strength there. Of course his problems have been swing and miss, so…..
I am stills trying to understand how signing another outfielder reconciles with Hahn’s self imposed mandate to get ML ABs for Vaughn and Sheets. I don’t see it happening just based on Hahnspeak.
likely story, lower half strength lol. 5 or 10, maaaaaybe. 20 lbs is a TON. More likely he's been hitting the Vegas buffets, and needs to get some cardio done.
Leury and Harris are gonna play a lot, they are getting paid. Adding a right fielder at this point just means Jerry Reinsdorf is wasting his money these days. Doubtful.
This has to mean that a serious RF will not be added. They didn’t pay Leury to sit around much. Nor Harrison. Face it, they are waiting for the Colas/Cespedes era
we all deserve generational wealth. Question is, does Carlos Rodon represent a baseball reason for that contract? Questionable. I would say he earned his position. Market is the key. Pitching is scarce.
It has been said and seen that he can get pudgy. He looks in top condition though atm if these pictures aren’t an illusion.
