Eloy LF, Joc CF, Palka RF with Jay the 4th outfielder. Not exactly ideal in terms of platoons in CF and RF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my source, but someone who can be trusted. If Fulmer and Bummer are the price, you slam dunk that shit now. Bryce Bush would be a tough one to swallow, but I would completely understand why the Dodgers the trade more from the Dodgers side if he was included. Chili are those the names being mentioned in the rumor or because we're throwing them around here for discussion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 We could certainly use one lefty in the rotation to give batters a different look...Hill and Pederson off the payroll also opens up money for Pollock/Harper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingo. The only way I even consider this. And that's if Machado doesn't opt out after 3-4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Also just gonna add that Bryce Bush for Joc Pederson would be incredibly moronic. If any prospect not in the Top 10 has a chance to skyrocket this year, it's him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuagman Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 It would be Joc/Engel platoon in center. Joc cannot hit lefties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) Should have signed Hamilton for CF with Pederson in RF. Manny will be happy at least with Jay, I guess. Jay probably has terrible splits against lefties as well, yes? Edited January 20, 2019 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Joc has been over a 3 fWAR in three of the last four years. He would be a dramatic upgrade in CF offensively. He would have been the best or 2nd best Sox offensive player in those years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuagman Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Engel is without a doubt on the roster. He’s your fourth outfielder. He’s a gold glove outfielder. and Palka is DH/1B. Bench of Engel palka yolmer mccann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense for the Sox to absorb most of Hill's contract, get Pederson and trade away smaller pieces like Fulmer and Bummer. Depends if the Dodgers would go for that. I also wonder if Sanchez or Rondon are in play. Manny is going to force one of them out and Rondon doesn't have any options remaining. Better to move one and get something as opposed to losing them on the wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
