Boston Red Sox Salaries and Contracts

I'd hadn't really noticed this until now... On the books next year:

Under contract:
$27.5m - Chris Sale, SP
$20m - Trevor Story, 2B/SS
$13m - Eric Hosmer (paid by SD), 1B
$8.4m - Matt Barnes, RP
$7.5m - Tommy Pham (mutual option), OF
$1.25 - Garrett Whitlock, RP

Arbitration guesses:
$15m - Rafael Devers (!), 3B
$5m - Alex Verdugo, OF
$4m - Nick Pivetta, SO
$3m - Christian Arroyo, 2B
$2m - Ryan Brasier, RP
$2m - Josh Taylor, RP


They've got some work to do.

Looks like a blank canvas. Snap up Judge, Degrom,Chapman, Rodon, Trea Turner and you're ready to roll again.

Is that the top 50?

Is that the top 50?

its the list of players on the rule 5 draft if not put on sox 40 man roster
there was no rule 5 last year so most teams have a big list

 

[catman]

Devers is going to do a lot better than $15M

That is an optimistic deal for the Sox. I could see him about $4-5MM higher. They really should try to lock him up longer term now before he gets too expensive.

Devers is 25 and making $11m this year... I just said $15 to give him an average arbitration raise.

But yes, they'll try to lock him up... There is 0% chance they go to arbitration. It is a different situation, but after fucking up Bogaerts last winter, there is no chance they screw Devers... Also to note - Devers agent is not Scott Boras...

 

[steveringo]

this year

Another new rule I hate. They have really fucked up this game over the past few years...

The Sox will need to be creative, because they absolutely need to see some prospects in the big leagues before they go into the winter.

This is why they should’ve tried to at least make some bullpen moves

Too many guys to protect

Have u not been watching Bloom Nothing is certain at this point

To be fair he’s still cleaning up some of DD’s messages, Including sale and the X opt out clause

 

[molsaniceman]

hows story doing? other than that no big signings i just dont see them extending Devers yet but hopefully im wrong
As for sale thats all injury related so cant put too much blame on DD and most players want opt out clauses
Someone will give Devers 300 or more mil but is he really worth it cause hes a 1 trick pony very good at hitting but rest of his game is average at best

This is partly why I started this thread... Aside from Chris Sale, there is nothing left to "clean-up"... Boston is in a very weird spot....

They will have a shit-load of holes to fill... And a shit-load of available cash... And, I can't imaging ownership suddenly becoming TB, so....

They might as well start with internal candidates. Extending Rafael Devers is a 'logical' first step. I can also see them re-signing JD Martinez (if it weren't for Boras)... Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the bring back Christian Vasquez!


This is also why I want to see Triston Casas now...

bloom and logic dont coexist together
were they buyers or sellers at the deadline?
im not disagreeing its what they should do except for maybe JD he might be toast

 

[Carnzo]

My wife complains about JD every stinking day for the last two years.
Mr. Double ain't getting much done lately.

He had a good albeit streaky 2021. His 2022 has been pedestrian and even that's propped up by his April/May. He's been awful since. Not even sure if I want them to extend him a QO, he could very well accept it.

I believe Their plan was to offer a qo and gave him not accept, they can’t do that now

I don't think that he is bad myself but this year he isn't doing much of anything to help get the $$
