I got the same DM as Dave a few weeks back. So weird 

I feel like he’s going to sign a deal like Rodon but for a few million less per year.  Gives the signing team some protection where they can bring him back if he has a big year.  Have a very hard time seeing any team give him four years.

Sox would be really dumb to not sign him on a deal like that. Very little risk if it’s only 2 years and he would be here for the peak of the window.

I think the value equation for them losing a pick for a short term deal with Conforto is too costly.

Revenue Sharing Recipients: Brewers, Diamondbacks, Guardians, Marlins, Mariners, Orioles, Pirates, Rays, Reds, Rockies, Royals, Tigers, Twins

These 13 teams received revenue sharing and did not exceed the competitive balance tax. If one of these teams signs a qualified free agent, it forfeits its third-highest pick. These teams face the smallest draft pick penalty.  Of this group, the Mariners and Tigers seem to be the most likely to sign a qualified free agent, but others like the Twins and Marlins are possible.

 

(How the Mariners and Rockies got on this list, no idea…)

If they value Conforto as the missing piece...that's only the 60th. draft pick.

Strap on a pair, Hahn!

Do the Sox have anything that can match what the Padres can offer?

The Sox need pitching. They can't afford to really part with pitching. If that what the pirates want, I can't see the Sox as a match.

No. If the Padres decide to pay for this player, the White Sox could not match it without moving guys they would not move.

Eh, vaughn+, but we aren't a great system to make deals like this. I don't think Cherington would want a player with his clock started. But he may very well like some of our young talent, or a vera, or a ramos more than industry.
