He will command AT LEAST Harper money. So, if we can afford that, then someplace else in the budget has to suffer. He is the best player we have had in a long while. Will be interesting to see what happens.

yes they can. They have to. unless they just want to let him walk after next year for nothing. They are looking to cut payroll. Say bye-bye to Martinez too unfortunately when he opts out. Fingers crossed he doesn't. Paying sale and Nathan eovaldi was a big mistake.

Both seemed like odd choices.

I don’t think Martinez wants to leave, though.

No adult male who answers to the name "Mookie" should be in the public eye. It's embarrassing.

i think he's gone. He will do great this time around in free agency.

It’s almost like you get older every single day.

That would improve the chances of keeping Mookie. I’m sorry, @Tunescribe, I mean keeping Betts.

Where they need to improve is on the damn mound though. It would suck to see JD leave, but maybe they snag a valuable arm or two with the savings.

i hope you are right. i fear you aren't. Maybe the sox keep him for the last year of his deal if they can't get what they want for him. Other teams might not want to part with much knowing mookie is a rental dead set on testing free agency. if the sox do lose him to free agency. They get a 1st rd pick.

It's not a matter of "almost," we all get older every single day. What's that got to do with a grown man calling himself Mookie? Why not Pookie, or Kookie?

That’s the joke, man.

i think the message board is long over due for a baseball thread in the main forum.
