Whisox05 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 #Nationals will have obvious surplus of catchers once Wieters deal is official - Norris, Lobaton, Severino. https://twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/834061374242250753 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Feb 21, 2017 -> 09:24 AM) Agreed, he's likely expendable. But like I said above, I'm not sure he was the hangup in a deal. Probably not, but he's a logical piece for the Sox. I don't know how much better he is than Narvaez, but another body isn't a bad thing. He's supposed to be good defensively at the very least.

Probably this. It's not like we're pro-scouts or know about every player the first time we see a name. I looked them up myself.

He's a second round 2016 pick who played SS and 3B. That's all I know about Neuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm sure Severinos defense is advertised, but, I'm kinda questioning why we are falling over ourselves to get a likely backup catcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he a good pitch framer? He could actually be a solid buy-low, bounce-back candidate. He was awful last year though. Don't really want him in a deal for Robertson unless it's to help offset some money and we end up getting 2-3 non-catching prospects in a deal.

Completely agree here. I'd rather have more upside in a Robertson deal. I'd take Severino along with 2 far away prospects for DRob and like Lawrie or something. Robertson for Severino does nothing for me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox kick in some cash, I could see the Nationals parting with an 18 year old Soto and Severino They will have added Robertson at a more palatable number for two seasons, and not parted with any prospects close to the majors I see that as a win win deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
