CWSpalehoseCWS Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 17, 2017 -> 02:26 PM) Also, gotta factor in that they're going to lose some depth due to the WBC so there will be extra playing time out there. This. The Sox now have Matzek, Volstad, Holmberg, Giolito, Lopez, Fulmer, and Danish to fill out Charlotte. No way some of those guys are kept around to start the season.

We got some great prospects back and maybe there will be some more. I would like to see some free agent signings to help in the OF and catcher. It will be an interesting season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to keep all the veterans they are keeping, might as well try to compete til the all star break. They're too cheap, however. Won't spend any cash at all. Embarrassing IMO.

Boopa1219 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Sox not attached to any names in Ben Badler's first report from the DR, in which he quickly goes over some of the bigger deals from the island.

He's in that class if he comes over next off season, isn't he? It goes from July-June I thought. He'll be an amateur since he will be under 25.
