I guess Corbyn Burnes with his durability (pretty much 30 GS/S and 200 IP) and numbers (solid, not overwhelming K% and BB/9) would be even more appealing to teams 10-20 years ago. But hasn't the league moved away from that? Pitchers are rarely allowed to get deep into games, often not even 6 innings.
He's obviously still a desirable pitcher, but I just think you may be better off with a Snell in todays game. Someone giving you spectacular 4-5 IP before the 2 inning specialists come in.

Considering that it takes a draft pick on top pf shedding out the biggest contract of the winter for a pitcher, I'd rather take my luck with Snell or maybe even Fried. Both also come with the advantage of being left-handed, which the Sox currently don't have in their rotation. Of course that could be covered by acquiring Crochet, though.

Soto is whoring himself out ~ his comments 20 minutes after the WS were telling to me

He’s a hired gun

His first love was Washington and he walked away

Mets make sense - build around Lindor & Soto

Get in before cap comes and get all this grand-fathered in

Burnes & Snell make most sense

Soto will go to the highest bidder.
I predict the Mets get him.
Two of Burnes/Snell/Fried is what we need
Take a flyer on Buehler
Would love to see us sign Romano on a cheap / prove it contract
