Squirmin' for Yermin

dang, this stinks.. I really wanted him in our lineup

Which is fantastic news

Did I???? Everyone is assuming Wheeler and then a scrub/old veteran.. He is my scrub/old veteran

He may be my favorite #2 FA starting pitcher addition after Wheeler

plus, maybe NOT offering him a QO, will incentivize him to leave since they want to rid themselves of money. I bet that's whats happening here. I don't think they will offer him a QO, to insure he opts out.

Goodness that rotation would be depressing given the great SP FA crop this year....

Me too, Houston has been my 2. landing spot for him. I have us at 1

literally NO ONE has said he is a TOR starter .....

Let him walk

Give me: Wheeler, JD Martinez, Puig, Betances and Pineda with another RP. I think this is realistic and about what will happen. Now here's some fun.... Let Abreu walk, save his 30 million on 2 years and use that money (with extra) to go after Donaldson for 1B..

If the Sox simply choose Abreu over JDM, this organization is a complete joke.. If we give Abreu more than 2 years regardless, this organization is a complete joke. I am on the side of having JDM as our #1 priority for offense. Having him as DH and signing Abreu to a 1 year deal, club option for year 2.

We would love Price at 16 million per year.

and yet Catcher would still be a hole.

This is accurate

I agree with most everything you say! I like you

again.... 70 of those games you listed have a bad hitter at DH... makes no sense carrying 3 C. Grandal's entire value is dependent on him playing C.. He is not a DH

loll.. so who DHs the 100 games when he is catching? McCann? Collins? The whole, "lets carry 3 catchers so they can alternate at DH" is a complete and utter joke when 2 of those can't hit..

GRANDAL DOES NOT SOLVE DH

I'd much prefer him to Avi. Obviously I have 5+ guys ahead of him. But he'd be cheap, and a big improvement. He has averaged 2.5 WAR his past 10 seasons

after watching the Astros again.. He's a guy I would be completely fine with.

I'd rather give him a chance than give Ozuna 100million or re-tread down the terrible Avi path.

Sounds like a terrible team

Dozier and Kipnis would both be cheap veteran options. Dozier has far more upside but Kipnis is LH and is familiar with our division

I don't think the amount of money given out is unrealistic.. I think signing the #4-8 free agents is unrealistic. There are other teams.

I'm taking into account his past few years as well.
