Expand That is an excellent allocation of resources. Sign another corner OF, sign a legitimate SP who is actually good now like as in this day and age, sign a quality bat (maybe same as corner OF) and that's a team that is still deep but also allows key prospects an open door. There's no excuse for the dorf having the kind of offseason he's had after pocketing so much money for so long, running out shit on the field. People will defend him (not so much here anymore thankfully, but certainly in the media) but he deserves total blame for this shit offseason. It's easy as pie to fill in the blanks for the 2021-22 Sox. All of the heavy lifting has been done. All they need to do is patch a few holes with short-term solutions, and they can't even do that. Fuck you reinsdorf. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 To say the Sox spent $54 million on Hendriks is ridiculous. Signing Cruz (or any DH) would affect the 2021 budget, to which $11 million is allocated for Hendriks. Nightengale sucks, feeding info from the Sox or not. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
