Like, someone "laughed" at the post quoted above -- they looked at this post and thought to themselves, "this person wants the Sox to be good for 5 years rather than two. That is hilarious! I think it's funny to want to be good for a long time, rather than a short time. In fact, I need to show everyone I think so. Bang--done" Well Adam is definitely one of those win right now in spite of everything the future may hold type of guys, so not at all surprising.

Lmao Where did I get mad? I find it hilarious. Nothing about my post was funny. I want sustained success. You want to win a WS in 22 at all costs. Differences of opinions. But guess what? Winning a WS is hard, and largely a crap shoot once you get in. The more chances you get, the likely you are to win one. I don't want to sacrifice our extended window with dumbass moves. We already had a major fuckup with Madrigal/Heuer. Enough of them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughn has a lot of growth ahead, cracked the majors playing a brand new position as one of the youngest players in the majors, and did very well adjusting. He will grow and learn and provide significant contributions now and in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we have enough to get either without him, but talk about going all in on the next 2 years and shortening this window. If that's the plan, there is a surefire way to do it! I think we could get Bassitt without him for sure. The other guys not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just throwing it out there as an idea or speculation. I get what your saying because of what the Cubs did to their team but I don’t think trading Vaughn is going to hurt the team long term that much as some people really think. We can have a difference of opinion though. Edited November 24, 2021 by maloney.adam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you trade Vaughn for Mackenzie Gore No. Much more uncertainty with Gore than Vaughn (at a position that's inherently more uncertain), and don't think even the likely development into even best-possible outcome matches our timeline.

I’m ok trading Vaughn for a younger arm who could potentially breakout with us, but we need a dude that can eat regular season innings.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Andrew Vaughn won the Golden Spikes award for the best college player. Here are the past winners before him: 2016: Kyle Lewis (ROY) 2015: Benintendi (eh) 2014: AJ Reed (Ouch) 2013-2001: Kris Bryant (great), Zunino (fine), Bauer (great), Harper (great), Strasburg (great), Posey (great), Price (great), Lincecum (great), Gordon (great), Weaver (great), Weeks (good), Prior (great) All in all, the vast majortity of the people who won that award went on to be very very good/great MLB players. Not sure why so many here have practically given up on Vaughn (yes trading him for Bassit/Gray is giving up on him).
