SonofaRoache Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 We will get a deal done with Yoan when the time comes. We will probably lose Eloy in 7 years though after giving Yoan, Gio, and probably Kopech good deals. If for some reason Yoan can't be retained, we will probably trade him for a King's ransom and replace him with a FA. If you take him off this team, we can still win with the rest of the talent that will be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I think that this will happen in the new CBA. To get rid of the manipulation, players will get paid earlier. In return, I think teams will get the franchise for 1 home grown talent per year and a max of two tags per player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFutureIsNear Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Sox are going to have 1 of the most exciting lineups in baseball on day 1 and are only going to add Madrigal shortly... Hahn and co actually proved us wrong. Good for them, I have no problem eating crow. A lot more left to do on the field of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s just celebrate what we have now, which is now all of our top acquired talent in the majors on opening day. If we have to pay Moncada “a lot”, so be it.
