Didn't Sox official account break the Grandal news? I would expect the same for the next big signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like if it was going to happen, it would’ve happened already. You need to have a drink or something to calm those nerves my friend. There’s no reason to worry just yet. They cleared those roster spots for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sockin Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 What time is Yolmer's outright official today? Does the team have to announce that? Maybe they announce something then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pal Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Merkin retweeting news about Orioles trading Dylan Bundy. Seems suspect, don't normally see him retweeting info about other teams/players. Gross if this is what the 40 man spot clearing has been about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryu would be an interesting fall-back but for whatever reason I don’t see him being realistic. And while I like Bumgarner, his ceiling is much lower either of the two above mentioned guys and his fly ball rate scares me in our park.

caulfield12 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Strasburg still seems likely to return to Washington. If someone gives Rendon 7 years, no way they match that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
