I think the Sox weren’t too high on Gregory as a teammate. Was he the serial bullpen napper?

Sheets does still have two options, fwiw. With these two deals, Sox do need to make a 40 man spot with Berroa, Deloach and Fletcher in and Santos and Mena out.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted February 3, 2024 Share Posted February 3, 2024 I like this one. Two interesting guys, plus the draft pool money could be big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea but they have that new big brained guy in the FO. I'm hoping he can come up with a creative way to turn all that deferred money into a new contract. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalChiSox Posted February 3, 2024 Share Posted February 3, 2024 When I saw Mariners in the thread title, I immediately thought of Lazaro Montes the LHS...damn. Maybe we will still get him in the Cease trade. And yes I know his profile isn't something Getz likes and No...I don't care. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He peddled one year of success (and possibly an injured arm) for a nice return. We might actually have a lefty RF power bat. His strikeout rate isn’t very pretty though. DeLoach is an average runner and has improved to be an average defender in the outfield. His below-average arm fits best in left field, but he can fill in at all three spots. Hope they don't put Benintendi in RF. At least better than Sheets in RF I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted February 3, 2024 Share Posted February 3, 2024 Seems every possible player with a bad rep or intimations of a bad rep (Santos) gone now...just Eloy and Moncada currently remaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted February 3, 2024 Share Posted February 3, 2024 1 minute ago, JoeC said: Why would this team need a closer? Well they have to try to win some games (Grifol) and this whole pitching/defense thing won't work as well if starters are never rewarded with the encouragement of occasional victories. Being as bad a pen as last year...well, hard to do but the sheer talent level is not even comparable. But who knows...so unpredictable.

Turn a guy into a tradeable asset with one good season and move him for a nice return like this one. Hopefully they can do the same thing with Leasure next season.

Also the heart of the Royals' approach in 2014-15 relied on having one of the best lockdown pens in the history of the modern game. Follow...the Royals, not money here. For an emulation of similar blueprints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
