If I were the Sox I would have rather signed Matt Duffy and there him in RF. Expand Walker IS a very good hitter. How much his power plays is the big thing as he projects on an OF corner, though he has played some CF. In fact some scouting services thought his hit tool was bested by only Madrigal in his draft class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 On 12/11/2019 at 12:42 AM, bmags said: My last thoughts: there is a chance this works out very good for Sox. If the rays just traded for him we’d all be expecting a turnaround. But he went to the Sox... Again, you have to just hope he finds massive power like Soler. Not sure what we “get” with another cost controlled guy though. Expand Yeah, the bottom part is the big thing for me. If they're going to save money in RF too, where are they going to spend? They better be landing somethibg big if they're going the cheap route in right as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Renteria was talking like he’s already on the team. Also, I would like to point out that Cishek had a possible Rangers trade listed twenty minutes before this broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving up anything of value, even guys we're down on, is the part that I say ugh to. $5.7 and a player for Mazara $10 million for Calhoun Unless the player is nearly worthless doesn't everyone pick Calhoun in that case? Expand I hated the idea of Calhoun and couldn’t imagine them doing worse than Kole. I’m impressed. They did worse than I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I'd 100% give up Walker for Mazara. We know Mazara can mash against righties at the ML level. We don't know what Walker is and they are very similar in age. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
