I see them getting Wilson Betemit, Jeff Marquez, and Jhonny Nunez in return. Or maybe they can get a haul like Jon Gilmore, Tyler Flowers, Brent Lillibridge, and Santos Rodriguez. |

you know damn well a good organization has a detailed scouting report on evey single player in organized ball. The sox will have to call a guy who knows a guy who saw the player play a couple of years ago. |

Jason Castro signed with the Twins for 3yrs/$24.5M. That's a bad sign for this off season when they aren't willing to match or beat that offer for a guy they have long been associated with trying to acquire. |

MLB really needs better offensive catchers. |

It looks like Stephen Vogt will be made available. I guess he's an offensive catcher because he sure as hell isn't a defensive catcher. He's 32 yrs old and under team control until 2020. I'd say no but Hahn can and probably will do worse. |

Welington Castillo non-tendered. Probably interest the Sox. |

It was the James Baldwin to the Dodgers deal. The Sox traded for a guy named Barry when they actually wanted a guy named Berry. That's why I'm so concerned about the existence of two Rougned Odors. |

They've made a flurry of moves. All of them are bad. |

Competition wide open for a RF, CF, 2b, 3b (if Fraz goes), C to get 600 PA's and an MLB check for a year. Sox will be an attractive destination for guys desperate to prove themselves. I doubt anyone, even Soto, signed in the last day will make the 25 man. |

Frazier agreed to $12M deal. Good. Now teams have cost certainty. Fucking trade him. |

so they still need a CF, RF, DH, C. Maybe they should start working on that. |

Hatchetman wrote: so they still need a CF, RF, DH, C. Maybe they should start working on that. No. They should let players sign elsewhere and wait. Then, they can pick up bargains just as spring training is starting. Guys desperate just to get a gig for 2017 and willing to sign for less than market value. They are not going to contend anytime soon and attendance is likely to plummet, so they need to keep payroll down as low as possible. Lose a lot, get a great draft pick and try to develop the young players they have and will have acquired in trades and drafts. |

Trading Bourjos to Rays for cash. Sign and flip is full effect. Not sure they are doing it right, though. |
