Rounding_Third Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I sure hope that one of those splashes is Brantley. A LH every day DH is our most glaring need. Moncada, Grandal, and Eaton aren't nearly enough. The 2020 record and stats against righties bear that out (w/Mazara vs Eaton). If its not a big splash because of signing Hendriks then a solid lesser one.....and NOT Schwarber!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn't be too expensive, he's not TOO old yet, and he has flat out just been a damn good AL hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t an offense he doesn’t make better but he is the perfect counter balance to some of our offensive weaknesses (RHP, swing and miss) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a leader, winner, clutch vet, professional, class act. He reminds me a lot of Bears' Allen Robinson. Vaughn needs another year in AA or AAA. Sox are going all in this year. I doubt they would then turn over their every day DH to a single A .250 hitter. Its not fair to the team and not fair to him. We desperately need a lefty bat anyway or be challenged by right handed pitching again. Edited December 18, 2020 by Rounding_Third 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One reason I would be OK with trading Vaughn for the right return (it would have to be a really good one) is that he is easily blocked. If you bat right handed and only play 1B/DH, you better hit like Abreu, and he might, but you lose a lot of roster flexibility when you give him a roster spot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
