I hurt my back several years ago and had a doctor tell me whatever I did, don't let anyone cut my back unless it was the last remaining option. Too many things can go wrong. So if it's a major issue, you are pretty much screwed either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Twins saved about $4 million that would have been wasted on the next two months and got someone who could be a future closer if everything breaks right for Pryor...although those lat surgeries are a new procedure, I guess this is the second one after Peavy's for a major league pitcher.

They envisioned that they had (cheaper and perhaps long-term) replacements in Morrison and Hart. Obviously, not so much. And it seems pretty clear that Morales didn't want to sign for just one year and keep repeating the QO process...which he ended up doing anyway, except he ended up losing $7 million or so and simultaneously having spring training in the middle of the season instead of Feb/March. In hindsight, they should have tried harder to hold onto Michael Morse instead of trading him to the Orioles last year...or trying harder to re-sign him.

witesoxfan Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I wouldn't even bother looking at Johnson. Putz was release (and has yet to sign with a team, which means he's likely considering retirement), it was with the idea that his peripherals would translate. It was also a month ago, so the Sox had more of a chance then (sort of). Sergio Santos still had youth on his side, so you could possibly keep him around for a few years. There is no upside to Jim Johnson though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
