JBJ will sign a good contract. But it won't be in Boston where he doesn't fit the team's needs.
This is SoxProspects.com Not SoxVeterans.com so many of us are fine with it. I'm looking forward to seeing Rosario get a brief call up to Boston in July

If the outlook is for the team to hit a peak of competitiveness in '23 or '24 ... then that group of Top Ten prospects is a core.
Ideally, you'd want to slow down service time on a few players. (Dalbec & Darwinzon may perform to make it certain they aren't going back to AAA)
Other players in A+ or lower, they should be looking to accelerate. So they can participate in the "'24 peak". Lugo, Yorke, Jimenez.

It’s like you were made for these questions! We're holding back on you. Everyone else in the class has a copy of last year's final ... and Manfred is desperately scribbling lecture notes all semester

When are Sox allowed to move Sale to IL? Sale: 15th or 16th. Earliest day that MLB allows pitchers to report. Payamps: I surmise today WED he comes off waivers. Claimed or unclaimed. Day 7 of a seven-day process.

LHP Daniel McGrath had a rough outing in Australia on 2/4. ERA up to 8.31
I still think he has a brief MLB run in him.

Agreed. I think a trade must be in the works. Springs is a dfa candidate for me but I'm greedy and don't like losing anyone. Chris Sale can go on 60-day IL around 16th 2 weeks away. Can they wait that long ... ?

I wonder about INSURANCE on Dustin's contract. Players must be carried on the 60-day IL to collect the insurance. If there is insurance, Sox obviously figured something out "Red Sox will get no relief from the millions the infielder has due to him ... Multiple industry sources say the Red Sox chose not to insure his contract when it was signed in July 2013. Pedroia is due ... $12 million in 2021 as part of his eight-year, $110-million contract. An undisclosed amount of the money due him is deferred. In the early days of the John Henry ownership era, the Sox often insured big contracts for veteran players.

The only tie that's not straight forward clear: Miami 10-6. Conf is 7-5 Balt 11-5 Cleve 10-6. Conf is 6-6 Indy 11-5 Tenn 10-6 Conf is 7-5 Miami, CLE, Tenn fighting for last 2 wildcards. -none of three have head-to-head sweep -mia, Tenn tied Conf. Dropping Cleve -next tiebreaker is Common games. Tenn has it over Miami. Tenn 4-1 vs Miami 2-3. Tenn becomes 6 seed.
Miami vs Cleve now for 7 seed. Two-way tie. Goes to Miami based on Conf record. CLE is out of playoffs
Baltimore, Tennessee, Cleveland and Miami control their destinies... if they win they are in - and Indy gets bumped. Assuming Indy wins (Jacksonville) and the other 4 all lost then Cleveland would miss the playoffs True. If all win except Tenn & CLE, Tenn is out. CLE is #7.

There are only a handful of players around mlb going through waivers this week. Players DFA to make room for Friday's additions.
I wouldn't expect Sox to pick anyone up.
We'll see where Renfroe, RAYS Nunez, BALT end up.
