Still, though, the Betts rumors are heating up quite a bit. Bloom got no biters on Price so they have to do something. No one seemed to be in a hurry to help them out. I wouldn't expect too much for Betts . Probably not Verdugo . Edited January 31, 2020 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston does something they call "truck day" which is a celebration of their equipment trucks going down to Florida for the start of spring training a week before players show up. Usually it's this week or next iirc. Sox could do something like that and market it a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is spring training only just ship it to AZ to avoid shipping it twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good day imo. February 1st is a huge date on the calendar for any sports fan. Super Bowl. Then signals the start of CBB tourney season and spring training, and then obviously the Big Dance and the start of real MLB. Meanwhile you've got the PGA Tour in full swing on the west coast (leading up to Pebble Beach and then the Masters) and the NBA is winding down for ASW and then gearing up for the final playoff push. If you're into soccer, it's the meat of the Cup and League season for all major Euro leagues, and this year we also have WCQ starting. For Chicago folks and most of NA above the mason dixon line it's also the time you start to notice the days getting longer and here in the PNW usually the 2nd week of February starts gardening season and the end of "winter" (at least any real chance of snow in the lowlands). Today is a good day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCsoxfan Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 All sorts of smoke around a trade. Really curious to see what happens. Either way the AL would be weakened if Betts were to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppysox Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I never thought Puig was going to be a hot commodity but this offseason has been a surprise. Looks like he could be had for not much other than incentive laced deal. Maybe our Cuban clique could convince him to get serious about his career. Nice bench piece with lots of upside at the right price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice bench piece with lots of upside at the right price. I’d take him if he came cheap but he isn’t a perfect fit because of that clubhouse cancer shadow around him and also he actually has reverse splits and hits righties better than lefties as a righty-handed hitter. He would be nice corner outfield insurance for injuries to Eloy or Mazara but he’s not a great platoon-mate for Mazara in RF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never wanted Puig really but he's still an upgrade over what we have currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
