Can't wait to hear how this is another example of Bloom doing a terrible job this offseason.

Can't wait to hear how this is another example of Bloom doing a terrible job this offseason. "Great, just what the Sox needed in the pen. A guy with a 15% BB rate! You should've signed Will Smith instead, ya bum! Season is over." |

“The 27-year-old Springs, meanwhile, struggled to a 6.40 ERA with 32 strikeouts against 23 walks in 32 1/3 innings with Texas in 2019. He’s posted huge strikeout numbers in the upper minors and enjoyed better success with the Rangers in 2018 than in 2019, but he’s an extreme fly-ball pitcher with below-average velocity who saw his opponents’ hard-hit rate soar in 2019. Springs does have three minor league option years remaining, so he’ll be an optionable piece of depth for the Sox for the foreseeable future — assuming he sticks on the roster.” www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/01/red-sox-trade-sam-travis-rangers-jeffrey-springs.html |

Apparently "Springs hopes eternal" within Red Sox Land.

Apparently "Springs hopes eternal" within Red Sox Land. Who is showing excitement about this move? He traded a guy without options for a guy with options. If you were watching last season, you should know how important minor league depth is. |

Guess I should have put a smiley face on the post. My attempt at a full words Spoonerism wasn't obvious enough.

Its a small move but Springs has one more option than Poyner did. I'm pretty doubtful anyone snatches Poyner via waivers (not that he's been useful recently), and Sam Travis was repetitive for depth. At worst, he's left-handed depth and at best Springs keeps his ERA at 3.38 like he did in 2018 and is useful.

If they aren't bringing in Tyler Flowers as his batterymate then what are we even doing here?
