I don’t think many (if any at all) think López is an option for the rotation.

Sox claimed AJ Alexy off waivers.

I wouldn't be mad about giving him a 2 year deal (under the impression Clevinger does not throw a pitch) but the Sox don't have the budget space to sign him at that amount (or any amount really). Having more certainty for '24 wouldn't be bad either.

They have to be moving a SP right?

No one is stating that. Just that similar types of people attract each other.

Can't find anything on him...unless he's this 34-year old pitcher, which means he wouldn't count towards this pool. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=mirand000ari

Just even guys on waivers. Justus Sheffield has an option for example. Not great obviously but still young and left-handed.

Makes no sense they haven’t added any depth.

Jerry's just coasting until it's over.

Yeah, it's going to be a revolving door of suck, riding with the hot hand at this point. Which is between Davis, Stiever and whoever we signed to MiLB deals at this point.

Unless I miscounted, I also only see 39 guys on the 40-man. Not that there aren't a couple of guys that could be DFA'd and no one would really care. Also saw that a Marlins lefty was also unclaimed. He has no options but still, we may need a 5th starter on OD depending on the Clevinger situation.

Just saw that he cleared waivers. WTF are we doing? Apparently not interested in adding SP depth.

That’s how I am feeling so far. Great first 2 seasons but a second major heist feels ridiculous. Still fun like you said though.

With the rumor of Royals having other potential deals close and them being optimistic about bringing back Greinke, you gotta think one of their SP is on the move, right?

f*** it. Float that $3.7M number to a guy like Andrus and see if he bites.

I was about to say might as well have signed Yolmer.

He’s been hilariously bad for like a decade now.

Started Money Heist recently and am loving it so far.

He hinted Royals have more trades lined up.

It just feels like one thing after another with this org.

Nope but thank you for taking the time to try to confirm.

Finding out you are potentially losing your free agent signing, 1/5 of your rotation, for an extended period of time is pretty big news.

Damn it. Stupid fat fingers. Should say “not really news to anyone.”

Eh, we all know how Eloy feels about being a permanent DH. It’s basically a yearly claim at this point. Not really news to anyone.

Well, it is a couple hours old. The other topic you mention is at least 2 weeks old at this point.
