Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) 11 minutes ago, CaliSoxFanViaSWside said: I guess if you had known the Sox would sign Eaton for $7M and Dahl would sign for $3M you might not have been as vehemently opposed to my desire to look into Dahl very seriously. There are reasons I made that suggestion. I was vehemently opposed to signing Dahl? I certainly wanted a proven player like Springer but I don't recall being vehemently opposed. This was the only post I made about Dahl on this forum. So no idea what you're talking about, you've got me confused with someone else.

Cali i linked that thread and my one post in it about Dahl. You should probably stop putting words in my mouth; you've done it quite a bit.

nitetrain8601 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Dahl for 7 million actually would've been better than Eaton at 7. Dahl at 3 million shows how stupid our FO is this offseason - whether it's Hahn, KW, JR or whoever else. And in an offseason like this, where there is penny pinching, they should've realized that they shouldn't have been first to the table for FAs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Dahl was injured last season. Shoulder. I don't know if he will be able to go at the start of ST. If not, that would decrease his value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox made it clear they signed Eaton because of his talent and his attitude. Eaton has talent if he is healthy and putting it together. His attitude that he brings to the table was important to them. It is a big gamble for sure, but it was their plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 This is a great market to nab some outfielders i hope they are still in on guys like Schwarber and pederson, hell even brantley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulture Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Dahl is arb eligible through ‘23 with a baseline now of 3 million. No reason the Sox couldn’t or shouldn’t have beaten that if they are looking for production at a budget. Definition of a buy low signing. Good move for the Rangers though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if not, then Dahl isn’t taking that deal with us when he can take the same deal with another team and actually start. Not really, but I would have brought him in along with Eaton or whoever else we signed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that he is edgy. We have lots of nice guys. Edgy is a good counterbalance to all that nice. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have been definitely fine with that, but I don’t think he would sign on for that when he can go elsewhere and get more guaranteed playing time.

Good move for the Rangers though Dahl is most likely concerned with playing time. No way he signs with us since it wouldnt be wide open.
