Red Sox/MLB Atlanta’s Chris Sale wins the National League Cy Young Award

[Mr Cartmenez]

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.

These baseball signings feel like Lebron “The Decision”. I guarantee hes already made his decision, just announce it. Gotta drag it until winter meetings.

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

He could troll Judge in the same city for his entire career

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

So, what you're basically saying is...

OMG, THE RED SOX SIGNED SOTO!!!

When it comes to latino players, Hector Gomez is usually pretty accurate. Was the first to mention Dodgers becoming the frontrunners for Teoscar last year over the Sox, Angels, and Mariners.

That video is genius marketing.

On a similar note, this is why Merloni is one of the best analysts in baseball.

Yup my inclination is it’s one of NY teams - whoever pays most

I’m him I would go with Mets fun park fun team

Yankees are so full of themselves with their stupid facial hair shit - I would remove them and say I want to keep my beard and Mets aren’t stuck in 1960

Here is the situation on Soto. It's everywhere and even a guy who goes to a Soto relative to get his hair cut (has pictures growing up, seems legit) says Soto does not like Aaron Boone.

Regardless the Yankees are his choice. Huge Dominican following. The Mets will offer more, and he will use that, but Steinbrenner knows It would have to be ALOT more. That's where Boros came in with getting the Sox and Jays involved. Pretty sure both offers are real and big, but for my money he is staying with the Yankees unless the Mets do something really stupid. Annoying.

13yrs 46 mil is the number IMO, with various outs. Mets will avg 50 per and not get him. 4 year out he will want 200 mil in those 4 years.
