Squirmin' for Yermin Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 22 minutes ago, FourEyesShottenhoffer said: Just looking at closing options available now in free agency, Gravemen is probably a better option. If the Sox are looking to simply unload some salary they’d be better off shopping Graveman. For Hendriks they need to get a substantial return. Can’t just offload that kind of asset for nothing I agree. I'd think you should be able to salary dump him which seems like a better idea. But if we can get a serious return for Hendriks, that would be fine too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the big picture angle if it's an overpay, but the Twins would still be adding a good player. Twins are going to be adding payroll. Their projected payroll right now is $92.5M after $150M or so last season. They have plenty of $ to spend. I'd much rather it go to Swanson than Correa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeCredeYes Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 1 hour ago, Bob Sacamano said: Dodgers depth looks kinda thin at the moment in the infield and outfield. They gotta be in a bidding war with the Giants for Correa right? Curious if the Padres are in on that too, they wanted Turner and clearly want to upgrade SS defense and move Tatis to the OF and protect his shoulder. Correa fixes that immediately.

We wouldn't be getting that riled up at this if he hadn't done such a poor job beforehand. No one will be that angry if Jim Crane says that in Houston and he just lost the #1 pitching FA on the market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
