😭😭😭
There was much more interest on the Sox side with JD than there currently is with Bregman now.. it’s almost as if they’re waiting for Alex to tell them he’d play for league minimum. At least, that’s the vibe I’m getting
People keep saying the Bregman/Sox thing this winter is like when the Sox were really flirting with JD Martinez a handful of years ago before snagging him and… I’m just not seeing the comparison..
I think any team not named the Los Angeles Dodgers is a long shot
Oh definitely not reading into it, i was just unaware of Breslow scouting Sasaki in Japan in September
Via Pipeline
I find it absolutely amazing that Breslow was able to find a living, breathing baseball player to acquire for Enmanuel Valdez
I will add this to the list, thanks!
I’m already over it. Give me Teo and Fried by Wednesday.
I wasn’t a fan at first for various reasons but I’m coming around on him
I won’t say this on the other app just yet, but i think i owe Sean McAdam a public apology after this offseason is over. He’s done a tremendous job on covering this Soto sweepstakes on the Sox end.
Appreciate the clarification 😂
Via @alexspeier.bsky.social, the red Sox have not been eliminated from the Soto sweepstakes as of this afternoon
Welcome to Soto Week
Tanner Scott was right there for more money, more value long term, and not a piece of shit. And Sox blew it.
The hope fluctuates every day, but things are looking a bit better!
I think they want Fried no matter what happens
Failing to see what Juan Soto signing has to do with any pitcher from inking a deal beforehand
