No chance on the Red Sox. If Hanley goes down and Sandoval can't hit, the Red Sox will be scrambling.
Not that badly IMO. Guy is legit done. Everyone knows it. I don't think that they would sign him for the pro-rated league minimum unless he put a couple months of insane indy ball together.

There should be a rule in baseball where a guy like Howard, who has been stealing money for years, MUST sign for no more than the league minimum...

I think that Bob Hahn over there in Chicago will lose his job over that Sale deal Moncada struck out 18 times in a row last season Think Bob wasn't watching Moncada will be a good one, I think. He has all the tools. Kopech is more of a lottery ticket. He can throw a ball through a brick wall, but he's got serious maturity issues. Not sold on him. Kopech & Giolito both......Cooper......Bob Cooper has a good track record of fixing mechanically flawed pitchers....

nobody needs a #4?
maybe he is asking too much.

Seems like the Rangers are in 'got for it now' mode. They traded away a good chunk of their system with the Hamels & Lucroy deals.....It would be a shame if they end up with nothing to show for it......Quintana would sure look nice near the top of that rotation....

I don't know... talk down here is that Daniels would like to replenish the farm after (as you noted) the deals that gutted it. There's no doubt that Quintana along with Hamels and Yu would make for a nice Top 3 though.
