Quin Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Alright, I'll guess Tim Hill (former Royal with Pedro) or Jarlín García due to the Bannister-Giants connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 My first choice was Foster Griffin. Royal 1st rounder in 2014, threw 120 quality innings in Japan last year. He just re-upped in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 The saddest part is that this is as exciting as the offseason is going to get....so I will keep hitting refresh until Soxtalk makes the exciting announcement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m betting they team up Bellinger and Hoskins. Will be interesting what Hoskins gets. The Phillies passed on a QO for him. Bellinger would be a significant add, though if any other teams are in on him the final deal will likely end up an albatross beyond a few seasons. The Angels, possibly SF, are the only other teams possibly in on him at this point, so they have a good chance on reclaiming him if he wants to return. The QO also doesn’t help his options, nor the Yankees and Blue Jays going with other alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
