    Mookie betts, David Price and 54 million to Cincinnati for Anthony descalifini Aristades Aquino Sal Romano and Alex blandino. Fair for both sides

      Boston says no. They could get better.

        Subtract the $54M and its about even. That’s a fine “taking the full Price contract” part of getting a Betts package.

          ROFL you Sox people way overvalue Price, he’s no $31 million man. If the Dodgers or Padres take him too, theres going to be some salary relief

      I think Boston is gunning for Verdugo. He doesn’t have the Betts talent, but he’s still damn good, elite hit tool, excellent defender/cannon arm, would like a bit more power and speed, but he’s a young player that can be a foundation piece.

        Everything you said is correct except he’d be a complimentary piece to the foundation of Devers/X.

          Yes because this is the NBA where 2 stars win you titles

        If Boston gets Verdugo and a pitcher, a 1B and a 2B, Boston could feasibly lose Betts and get better, because they’d be improving 3 positions instead of 1.

      This is Mookie Betts we’re talking about here. Gotta get more.

      Hilarious. Sox would have to toss in Devers.

    6:41 Nats-Braves-Mets-Phils-Marlins?????

    Seriously? I get the Nats won the WS, but they didnt win the division, they just got hot at the right time and made it through, I mean, it took until game 7 to win it against the Astros, so its not like they blew anyone away. They lost Rendon and didnt do much to replace his production. Meanwhile, Braves got better at catcher, starting rotation is better to start the season (not as good as the Nats I will admit), and the bullpen to start the year is probably one of the top bullpens around. So please explain to me how you have the Nats first.
