daa84 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) if madrigal and or vaughn are in a deal it better be for a stud with at least 4 years cost controlled. those are the types of guys you can trade away when you are 1 piece away (ie gleyber for chapman), not trying to improve on a 72 win season Edited December 12, 2019 by daa84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalChiSox Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Id rather give up McCann than Collins if that's what BOS needs. With his new swing, OBP and power, Collins could be valuable esp as a LHH. And he'd make losing Vaughn easier if he transitions to 1B assuming he can be a .250/.360/.475 guy if his changes work out permanently.

Let them absorb that garbage contract. So Moreno is willing to pay bazillion in contracts but we can't even beat them out on like a 3/65 deal for Ryu?

Nobody wants him for the way he catches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lillian Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I thought that the motivation and urgency for Boston was to shed payroll. I think that is more important to them than acquiring prospects. The whole reason it would make sense for these two teams to make a deal is that Boston needs to unload salary and our Sox have the significant payroll flexibility. Therefore, what would likely entice Bloom the most would be to take on the entire Price contract. If we do that, they would probably not need any prospects, save perhaps a lesser guy, just to save face, with their rabid fan base. Now, the question is; Which player would we accept and they be willing to include, in order to entice Hahn to accommodate Bloom's desperate desire to off load that Price contract?

Yes, though I will say everytime this board thinks a team will bend over backwards to shed salary it ends up being nothing close to it. The cozart deal was the best example recently of what we all think will happen and the sox weren't in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect example of what we wanted the Sox to do the last 3 years with a lower payroll and they never did it. What a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCCWS Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 " Boston might have to get creative to offload the 34-year-old, potentially attaching an enticing young pitcher or paying down some of Price’s salary to facilitate a trade." Another take with a pitching prospect attached. Hahn needs to wait for the rumor that Sale is attached to the Price trade and then jump on it. That rumor should be around by the weekend.................. https://www.masslive.com/redsox/2019/12/david-price-trade-rumors-cardinals-white-sox-among-5-teams-in-on-boston-red-sox-starter-report.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
