I'd like to watch Tex v. Sea on Fox with the rest of the country
But in New England, we get to watch Sox action ...
Edit: TOR loses in 10 inn. Tightens WC race.

Makes no sense to me ... playing the regulars & then resting them against TB & BA Cora’s decisions make no sense on a regular basis. I hope Cora becomes a GM elsewhere next year… I decided that it must be: First game of homestand & they wanna sell tickets. And get Sale a WIN.

BoSox are mathematically eliminated. Regardless of ESPN not being aware
Tex & Sea play each other, so 85+ wins is in the bag for one of them

If the Sox finish 3 games out of the wildcard, it will make Cora look bad. For not fighting for every win.
Which is why Cora will not allow it to happen

" ... following players will be eligible for selection in the Rule 5 Draft in the December of the stated year unless they are added to the 40-man roster on or before November 20 of that year.

So as no team claimed him off waivers there's the temptation not to place him on the 40 man roster other than the possibility Dombrowski would pick him Rule 5 again. I guess the Sox have until December 7th to decide whether they need to place him on the 40 man roster? Yes? No? Maybe? Jeez Louise

Not really. If he gets back to Boston at this point, it means every MLB team will have passed up on the opportunity to claim him and put him on their roster for 90 days, including as much of 2023 as possible before extending into next year, instead of all of the 2024 season. In other words, they would have passed up clearly more favorable roster terms now before adding him under worse terms in December. Wouldn't make sense. Well, the hypothetical posed was whether Boston could trade for Song prior to the Phillies DFAing him, in which case the other 28 teams wouldn’t have a shot at claiming him and rostering him for the final two months of the 2023 season and April 2024. Song began playing catch with his roommate in January and was in spring training a month later. He could be more attractive as a rule 5 selection this coming winter, after a full year of baseball related activities and a full offseason to prepare. He probably was not on most teams’ boards this past winter. There are better ways for the organization to spend a 40 man roster spot, in all likelihood. The rule was always that, if a player is selected a second time in another Rule 5 draft, said player does not have to spend time in MLB, only stays on 40-man roster. If that is still the case, losing Song this December will be easy.
