If Hall does not make the team out of spring training will he be a SP in AAA or a RP?

Better be a good PTBNL or a decent chunk of cash. Seems like they’re just giving him away until we hear the final terms of the deal.

Maybe the Sox feel Travis Lakins is nothing more than a AAAA player, and feel now is the time to capitalize while he has at least some value like they did with Sam Travis before they turn into a Bryce Brentz type, and have no value as they get older and stuck in AAA.
The Sox are taking flyers on a lot of relief pitchers, but they have seen Lakins up close for a while now and think it’s best to sell now even for a PTBNL.
Maybe they just have a philosophy to trade away all the Travis’s Travis Shaw, Sam Travis, and now Travis Lakins. 😂

Using last year's media guide, Office Services Manager Travis Patterson and Sr. Mgr. of Group Sales, Special Events Travis Pollio had better be careful... |

Cubs lost Lakins to Baltimore on waivers.
If the PTBNL was based on what happened with Lakins in ST, I wonder what this would mean.
PTBNL could also be a list Sox will scout in the spring.

Do you know what holds teams to the terms of the PTBNL? Is there a contact they submit to MLB with the stipulations? |
