gogosox1959 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 (edited) If you keep Kimbrel you have to use him. I'd rather have those critical innings go to Bummer, Kelly, Graveman, Crochet Edited March 29, 2022 by gogosox1959 grammar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems pretty obvious - albeit incredibly frustrating - Sox have no further plans to spend $. So why are we trading Kimbrel exactly? To spend $. I would guess either on Conforto or another Starting Pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colome's Hat Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Also, this guy could possibly be dealt for a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 I would like this type of move more if we weren't trying to win a World Series. Hopefully everything clicks for him but if he were to play in the MLB with the Sox, who gets booted from the roster with everyone healthy?

My guess, no Kimbrel, no Burger. Phillies might just need the roster slot. Seems kind of weird with Odubel starting the year on the IL. Thought this guy would definitely break camp as the CF for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalChiSox Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Certainly better than the status quo. I assume the price on Meadows was too high since Portillos said they were checking in on him again. I'm glad they did something at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Strange move for Phillies, as they have no outfield depth. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 I've never even heard of Moore and I pay attention to prospects, so guy must be an interesting reliever if I had to guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptatc Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Just now, fathom said: Strange move for Phillies, as they have no outfield depth. With him leaving the organization for a time for personal reasons, he may have just needed to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Madrigal has more power than haseley. I hope he ends up being one of these transformative players and my worst takes but anyway haseley sucks, I was glad we didn't get him in 17 or whatever, and Brian Goodwin is better thanks for my ted talk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 You have wonder if this came from earlier kimbrel trade discussions that fell through but the Sox liked this guy as part of that deal and found another way to get him. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway look forward to Phillies signing conforto in an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did our time and deserve better. This was my exact thought as well. Also, one of my friends just sent me a screenshot of an article about Haseley saying that at times, it looks like he forgets how to play baseball. Hopefully this is one of those change of scenery deals where he turns his career around. Edited March 29, 2022 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
