The rumour is that Rodon's demand is $6m. That's only a couple hundred thou over the Sox slot. Mightn't need much savings. Mightn't need any at all if they get him at slot for a promise of a quick promotion.

I said it at the time but that tweet should have been an indication he's negotiating with the Sox.

Just draft a lot of pitching. That's how I'd build my organization. You can sign hitters and trade for them.

 

Cubs believe the opposite for whatever reason. I agree with you.

I'm not a know it all baseball guy but following it this would be my philosophy. I can see taking a first round bat. But I'd be a pitching drafting motherf***er. Lol
