If Beni gets clutch hits, that's all fine and dandy - I was strictly speaking to the writing in the article. Once I saw that egregious typo, I got out. lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Erick 224 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 If we get Benintendi, we’re winning the World Series. If we get anybody, we can win. Just make a move. Any move. @taiwanmarlin 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely, that deal is nuts lol not just in the AAV but in the way they’re handling the $15M buyout on the 4th year. No thanks!

No thanks! Apparently it's bad for the game if more teams don't operate this way and teams that don't hand out contracts like this don't deserve teams and they need new owners. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,296 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 While Benintendi is still young and is club controlled I feel like the Sox would be selling low on him now, his best years were a few years back and he's been questionable since then, looking like he could even be declining. So why are people still acting like his price tag would be so high? Or am I the one who is looking at this wrong? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 2,296 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Just now, taiwanmarlin said: If he's really so bad then why we want him ? I don't think he's "bad" but I think he's had a few weak seasons yet at his age he has a chance to bounce back and still be good. Plus he's a lefty bat so it might be ok for the Marlins to take a chance on him but I just don't think he's worth giving up a lot for. I don't mind Benintendi as another option but I don't think they should look at him as being a sure thing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
