Sounds like he has started, but has come on stronger as a reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was making fun of the blurb because it said the exact same thing in back to back sentences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4uckOffCommieScum Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 No reason not to make this pick. The last couple spots on the staff should be open to competition, might as well pick up as many options as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you plan to get rid of him? He's on a major league guaranteed contract. Cutting him on opening day costs $4.5 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Gallo is a plus defender in RF right? If so, I probably put Colas in LF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting him on opening day costs $4.5 million. I said ideally. Obviously the Sox won’t cut him. Dude has averaged 5+ walks per nine for six straight years. Ideally they wouldn’t have traded for him in the first place 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colas is also a plus defender in right. Whichever way you go, you can't be wrong. Also, I like that Oscar throws lefty. That's a sizable advantage in right.

If you thought Hendriks might be traded picking up arms could solidify taking that position. Everyone moves up a notch. Lopez, Graveman, Bummer , Lambert then the rest. Avila,Kelly, Diekman, Ruiz. Crochet either put in the minors upon his return in August. Barring any trades of course if Hendriks goes.

Timmy U Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Too bad they cancelled Soxfest. Nick Avila and Victor Reyes could have been introduced as the big offseason acquisitions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaDoc Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) He is worth a chance. Wish we had taken a couple more. Set up a competition from the beginning. With the cost of pitching, even having to keep on a roster, league minimum arms have some value. If they look good but you have no room, flip ‘em Edited December 11, 2022 by BamaDoc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
