Food guy wasn't right at all in this case.
He was right about him picking a team and it not being the Sox. Wasn’t right about what team he thought would sign him, though.

Also might be hard to keep 3 catchers with the rosters back to 26
They may have to carry three if Vaughn doesn’t start with the MLB club. I’m assuming Collins or Yermin DH?

Wonder what our offer was.
I’m going to go with 1/ $1million if he makes the club out of Spring Training. In all seriousness though, I bet Bauer does a video blog and talks about every team that pursued him. So if there ever really was an offer we will know

That is why this is a minor league deal.
Touche’. It just feels like a minors deal with the intention of him making the MLB roster.

Yuck. This guy isn’t a major leaguer any more.

They don't.
Thanks, Harold. I figured as much.

Oh brother. She will get a nice payday from Bauer, but she already is at a disadvantage in the exlusive boy's club that baseball is. Using Twitter publicly just seems risky for her reputation and future client acquisitions.
I was kidding with that last line. I can see your side a bit too. I just don’t get the constant criticism she receives. I don’t think she would if she was male. Not saying that’s what you are doing at all.

Only on a short-term / High AAV. Sox could, in theory, hypothetically, potentially offer a longer term (extended spread).
Hypothetically, of course because Bob said they're broke...so.
I’m pretty sure this is why people on the board have optimism. I’ve had a few run ins with Macsandz but people swear by his info so I understand why people are optimistic that the Sox have a shot. I would love for them to shock us.

using Twitter to air out negotiations on your first big client will be really WELL received with GMs and peers across the league.
Idk, I think it’s kind of refreshing. Agents do it all the time. They even lie to reporters to get their clients more money. She’s been pretty transparent and I think it’s a good look. I’m not a Bauer guy but I don’t see the problem with her confirming that there are two teams left. Helps make the offseason less excruciating and kills nonsense rumors. But I’m not a peer or a GM like you so I digress.

I'll always fall in love with dudes like these ever since our breaking bad boy loaiza.
Rodon was basically the stake in the heart of my offseason, these are all the margin stuff. Still fun.
I agree! I would love Folty. It’s just funny how our wind has been knocked out of us. We all expected to be in on bigger names!

Mets are about to sign Bauer and Sox fans are on the edge of their seat trying to find out whether Folty chose us. I am one of those Sox fans lol.

Sure seems Sox paid full price for everything while other teams got a big discount
Jerry Reinsdorf is all about players rights. Huge union guy.

I don’t believe the Sox were ever interested at all and only speculation was due to Gomez and Chuck Garfien dreaming.
What about the insiders on the board that said the Sox had been interested? ? maybe there was interest but not as much as Hector led on? Or everyone was wrong, also an option.

I am not even certain I'd rather have Ozuna than Vaughn this year. Pass.
He has had 2 awesome years, and many above average years. He seems to be overrated here imo.?

No. I like the Hendriks signing but they brought the wrong former Sox back. Should have been Quintana, Flowers instead of Eaton and Rodon. Hendriks, Quintana, Flowers, Dahl, and Lynn would have been the same cost and I think better. Jerry sucks and his money is tight but Hahn sucks at using the money wisely, there is always millions wasted. Year after year.

I don’t know how any pitcher targeted by the Rays doesn’t choose them.

So which side does GM LaRussa come down on?
We know it’s not Passan, that’s for sure

Portillo’s claims Mathis is being considered.
If the Sox sign Judge Mathis, it won’t be long before he puts La Russa behind bars.

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if Rodon got his shit together this year and out pitched Gio, Dallas, and Lance? If he could win the Cy Young this year, I doubt anyone would be complainig about the 3 million dollar signing!
Yeah I’m sure everyone will be excited if he won a Cy young.

I must be confused. Yikes
Folty signs with Rangers

I can’t believe he got an MLB deal. I can’t believe the Sox wouldn’t give him one if he really looked as great as all these reporters keep saying.
