Name one team that trades for Sandoval without Boston eating most of his contract money.

Japan pays by the pound.

 

[Chuck]

I'm guessing they are getting closer to a trade.

He could be playing for you. For you. He even may be playing for you!

haha, you wish they could get rid of that contract.

 

[BFIB]

Sox should have to eat the whole thing. Remember in 2012 when Pablo said he wanted a long term extension and the Giants told him they are concerned about his weight? Dude showed up in great shape, played the year, didn't get the contract, and ballooned back up. Then, surprisingly, he lost a ton of weight going into 2014 (contract year) and the Giants still didn't give him the deal. The Sox did, and he's back up to Hutt size.

Everyone but the Sox GM and owner didn't realize that was a bad baseball signing.

 

[Dominican Power]

Who didn't see that Boston signing becoming a complete disaster? Boston isn't for everyone. SF was perfect for Pablo. He went from laid back ass Norcal to the blue collar Northeast. Boston fans only fuck with you if you're either scrappy(white) or supremely talented(Pedro/Manny/Ortiz).

It's not that hard. Teams will want him, just not paying for him.

Not the first time Pablo and "eat the whole thing" have been mentioned together.

Pablo and Allen Craig in a package deal.

It's still crazy how quickly Pablo started burning bridges the second he signed with the Red Sox. What was the point of talking shit about your former teammates? All he ended up doing was tarnishing himself.

Include Moncada and we'll gladly take Pablo.

Put Bagwell in the Hall of Fame or RIOT!

 

[NameGenerated]

Mallex Smith's helmet has it out for him.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

John Lackey is borked.

I don't think there's an equivalent of the Veteran Commitee in OOTP, unless the commish can do an override.

At least we got Bonds in a few seasons back!

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

John Lackey is borked.

He's pretty old and a few years off of his TJ surgery

I thought it was kinda a bad signing at the time. I think it'll end up being OK, though

 

[DireStr8s]

Mallex Smith's helmet has it out for him.

It's a mimic.
