Will we or won't we have a blue-chip prospect left?
I don't think they trade Sale to the Sox without us giving them a player on our roster I.e. Betts. It doesn't happen. To get a great pitcher who pitches once every 5 games for a package that includes our lead off hitter who is just scratching the surface ,I can not see it happening.

There is no way people are even asking about Betts with any seriousness. I caught myself yesterday wondering what the Sox would need to add after Betts for Trout. That's the level fantasy trade it would take.

Nice to see Workman back after 3 weeks, was scary velocity reports after his last outing.

Nice to see Workman back after 3 weeks, was scary velocity reports after his last outing. With his rehab time getting reset, he now should be able to go through the season without burning up an option. I don't think that's of utmost importance since if he's not holding down a roster spot in 2018 (his age-29 season) then he's probably a DFA candidate. Still, if he settles in as an okay but not great depth option, keeping him as an up-and-down type is a possibility.

I'd like to see Mercedes get another shot in Portland. Something crazy like 75% of his plate appearances are a grounder or strikeout.

Victor Garcia has some decent numbers at the Fort, nice size. Has anyone had eyes on him? ?
