That guy is never going to stay healthy.

No way that’s enough to get all 3 of those guys.

Interesting thought. It’s not like Oakland is winning anything this year anyways so maybe they would take him as part of their longer term plans.

What about Vaughn then?

Sign me up if Manaea agrees to an extension as part of a trade. Otherwise that is too much for 1 year.

Wouldn’t it be less likely that he is traded now if Crochet is hurt?

Shouldn’t even be on this team at all. What a waste of a signing along with Velasquez. $8+ million wasted on two guys who could be DFAed by June.

He doesn’t have any.

Sox would be really dumb to not sign him on a deal like that. Very little risk if it’s only 2 years and he would be here for the peak of the window.

Seems as if the Rays could use a reliever. Hmm…

Wasted so much money on Leury and Harrison when Romy can probably provide similar production.

I don’t understand the waiting into the season to trade Kimbrel angle. If he’s pitching well enough at that point to warrant a decent return, wouldn’t the Sox just be better off keeping him?

Sheets and more for Manaea, then Kimbrel and maybe a prospect/$ for Meadows. Boom.

I like Sheets but he’s kind of redundant in terms of where he can play defensively. He probably should be a DH and the Sox already have a number of guys who fit into that same category. If you can use him to get Manaea, I think you have to do it. Another solid pitcher is more important to this team than a lefty bat IMO.

Moncada and Grandal exist.

Sheets should not be untouchable.

Honestly that doesn’t seem like enough for Oakland.

Does Foxy know something?

Welcome to SoxTalk, Tony!

Man this lineup is not all that good. I know TA isn’t here but I really wish they would’ve upgraded 2B or RF.

Yep. That’s why he just got hurt on a play that any normal right fielder would’ve made easily.

For all the fucking idiots that were fine with a Vaughn/Sheets platoon, this is what happens when you ask guys to play out of position.

Seems to me that the OP is whining about other people whining.

Jerry doesn’t care about winning. That is the sad but honest truth. The Sox will never win anything until he’s gone.
