August 1, 20233 yr Personally I had hoped we would keep Eder as an upside starting pitcher. Burger is hit or miss, almost what Soler is now. I'm really more miffed that Philadelphia got Lorenzen for practically nothing.

August 1, 20233 yr Concerning is one of the worst strikeout rates in the majors, one of the worst on base percentages in the majors and a very low defensive rating. So all we're getting is hopefully, some pop.

August 1, 20233 yr The Marlins have traded Rod Allen for one of the chickens in tonight's race. Rod will instead be racing.

While ESPN is not exactly ace reporting anymore - I kinda agree with them that the Marlins get a C- on the deal while the Sox get an A. I really really don't like guys who profile like this and it makes me cringe knowing he's under contract for at least another season. I felt like she just made a trade to make a trade to not get blasted by the press. I would have preferred another starting pitcher over this wet end even though the Marlins need offense. He's also been absolutely abysmal for 2 months straight now - worse than Segura even. Just a waste of a solid prospect. Edited August 1, 20233 yr by hovertical

August 1, 20233 yr I'll be happy we did something, but also disappointed if we don't do anything else.
