    If they resign JD we're definitely not having a rebuild.

    Pretty sure she just deleted her account as I can't access it anymore. Either it was a troll attempt that badly misfired, or she's just incredibly stupid. Or both!

    Martin is having a good year.

    Fangraphs splits 4 games in LF for Lind.

    Ji-Man pronounced G-Man is a cool name.

    Haha, you've got to admit Judge is fun to watch though.

    Perfect timing!

    I cannot recall the last time that happened!

    He's looking good so far.

    Based on that inning Montero is obv going to carry us to the World Series while we remain undefeated the rest of the season. Pessimism be damned!

    1-0 up before the GDT is even made - must be some sort of record.

    It seems no one has noticed but there's a Jays game on right now!
  18. Bobthe4th
    Yeah that's fair.

    Not really, if they aren't offered something before the deadline that they want, then he can still be traded in the offseason. Which gives time for him to prove his fitness to offset the fact the buyer misses out on him for the end of this season.

    You could argue either side could win in a JD for Devers trade. From the Red Sox perspective, 3B is a big weakness, JD solves that for a minimum of this year and next, when they've got to be thinking about challenging for the World Series. Devers may never make it to the Show as a regular, and the odds are against him ever being MVP elite worthy. Conversely, JD's inevitable decline could already have started, and Devers could turn into an all star every year from 2018 to 2028. That's just a risk you have to take when making trades, it's rare you get a Shelby Miller type one sided heist.

    I think you're being overly pessimistic for 2019 in calling Stroman and Sanchez non aces, Biagini a reliever, and the odds on Smith Jr and SRF amounting to anything. That's the main difference between us. I'd support a full rebuild in the right circumstances, I don't believe that's the case right now. If Travis never recovers, if Biagini flames out as a starter next year, if some of the better prospects bust, if other things go wrong then maybe that changes.
  22. Bobthe4th
    Trading Donaldson could easily fit into a retool if he brings back a near MLB ready 3B like Devers. Unless JD signs a team friendly contract in the offseason (and I don't see why he would) shopping him to see what's out there is sensible. Obligatory everyone is available for the right price, but I'd be disappointed if any of Stroman, Sanchez or Osuna were traded.
  23. Bobthe4th
    I'd add Biagini from the MLB roster. Plus Gurriel, Smith Jr and SRF as prospects who have a good chance of being regulars by 2019. This is supplemented by: Donaldson either gets resigned, or traded for a high return; Martin's contract doesn't expire until 2020 giving 3 years for a replacement to either develop or be acquired; assets gained from trading shorter term contracts like Happ, Pearce and Smoak; free agents / MLB for MLB trades; other prospects (that aren't as highly rated right now) making it.

    Music to my ears, quotes from Shapiro: "I think there’s still quite a bit of talent here, both veterans and guys in the prime of their careers." "We clearly need to continue to compete, we clearly need to continue to get more talent around those existing players but yes, we have enough of a base of talent here to still contend." "I do think we can build that team without that cycle (i.e. years of tanking) occurring here.... and I still believe we can get through that transition in an expedited time frame." Retool not rebuild!

    How do you know you're s***? When you're DFA to make room for Mike Bolsinger.
