Wow. The top prospect in baseball plus. Awesome. Hate to see Sale go. Hope he makes the HOF. But Moncada is the guy who I said they could not get and they got.

 

He's going to have to pitch well in September and October for that to happen. And that's why I'm not sad about dealing him.

 

Very excited about Moncada, though.

No...I'm really not.

 

A future hall of famer for Moncada and Kopech isn't enough. The other 2 pieces have to be solid as well.

 

I'll be a little disappointed if the Sox didn't get at least one other Top 100 prospect in the deal. But I won't riot if we *only* got Moncada and Kopech. Moncada alone will be really, really good.

Makes for an interesting situation with Abreu now.

Where do you actually play Moncada? 2b, 3b?

 

One would think the dynamic nature of his game would be limited by a LF assignment in USCF.

 

I'd play Moncada at 2B. We haven't had a really good one since Ray Durham.
