toasty Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:12 PM) I think the biggest hurdle of the offseason has been completed and we haven't even reached the offseason yet. It's been the sox offseason for awhile now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunt Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Rick Hahn is on fire. He has my full support in any move going forward. Love an offense anchored by Abreu and Garcia going forward! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) It would be funny if they now traded Viciedo and Alexei this offseason. Could happen. Edited October 18, 2013 by flavum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love an offense anchored by Abreu and Garcia going forward! I think we are only one or two more hitters away from being a playoff contender! And maybe a couple pitchers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max power Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 10:13 PM) Can this guy take a walk??? Seriously. I am tired of the Sox getting guys who swing at everything. No more Ramirez guys who hit .270-.290 and have an OBP of .310-.320. The Sox aren't going to win anything until their hitters can get on base. If this guy can't take a walk, I don't think he will be worth $70MM unless he hits as well as Miguel Cabrera. All signs point to yes. Has a very high OBP in cuban ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Also have to like the overall presence the Sox are starting to make internationally. Wilder buried them for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 The sox were in it if it stayed below 80 which they thought it would. This was plan A this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I think having Alexei and Viciedo on the team had a lot to do with getting him. Hopefully, he turns out to be as good, if not better, than Cespedes and Puig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, he turns out to be as good, if not better, than Cespedes and Puig. If Alexei and Viciedo mattered that much, the Sox would have offered only $40 million or so. It was all about the Benjamins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was plan A this offseason. It's a great signing for a team in their position. I expect some pitching surplus to be traded next for a another position player that could be added to the core for the long-term.
