Squirmin' for Yermin

This is what the Sox have always done. Spend 15 million spread out over 5 guys instead of one guy at 15 million.

Drew Pomeranz would be a good signing.

I'd love Chapman. but we won't be spending more than a few million, so i'll go with a guy we will cut by July.

fine.

Yeah, sure. You've laid out the risk of holding him. The potential benefit of holding him is also exorbitant. Assuming best case return to 2022 form, like you assumed the worst case. With no injury, and no return to 2022 form, Cease would still command Petty + Arroyo type return in July.

It is completely dependent on the offer on the table so far. If the offer is Cowser and Ortiz +, you take it... If the offer is Petty and Arroyo, you take the risk and wait until the deadline because that offer isn't a slam dunk.

Yes, an arroyo and petty ++ is an easy no for me. I’ll take the risk and hold until the deadline. You can beat that

My immediate thoughts too

Sox say no, I hope.

Yeah I don’t see much wrong with that ask

Reds say no easy. I'd take the first 3 alone and run

Reds say no.

because it fits his weak narrative.

hmmm sounds like a dodgers package, Orioles package or Reds package going strictly off age of their top prospects that we'd be acquiring.

You don't need one to.

they Should. They’ve always made just as much sense as anyone. More so after going all in with Soto

Jesus.. seems stupidly risky

Sadly we just lost a team (I believe)

Perfect.

If he’s on with Pat, I imagine he’s got sommme kind of source

He’s totally signing by Eves Eve

Put a stop to it now before teams start abusing it.

Why, I love it. it's dumb a team will throw a guy out there to warm up, to just pull him after.

I blame the MLB system, not the players.

I'd take Painter straight up lol
