Red Sox To Acquire Drew Pomeranz From Padres

Per MLB Trade Rumors

Beat the Rangers to him.

So do we and the Rangers get to tango.

 

[zbhargrove]

There goes any tiny chance we had of getting Benintendi or Moncada

 

[praeceps93]

Please, set the market at a ridiculous price...

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Still waiting on who may be going to the Padres

 

[Heyward]

Never thought we'd get Moncada, hope they traded something useful but they have the prospects for him.

 

[Heyward]

Owens/Devers would be a good return for SD.

But a little wary given Pomeranz pitches in a really friendly pitchers park.

Pomeranz has two more years of arbitration after 2016. Good young pitcher on the come-up, but durability issues. Pretty sure the Sox upper echelon prospects won't be in play (Moncada, Benintendi, Espinoza) unless there's a lot more involved.

I will be shocked if anyone of Devers' caliber is included in the deal. I can see Owens and another mid-level prospect for Pomeranz.

Wow, just saw Espinoza was in the trade. Yikes. Dombrowski too fast and loose with his young talent, IMO.

 

[msstate7]

Maybe the Red Sox pursue Teheran too. Go all in

 

[Heyward]

At least Ezpinosa?

Jeez.

 

[praeceps93]

Hooo my, Espinoza is a great get for the Pads.

 

[dak]

Espinoza is #15 on the BA midseason list just published. For 2.5 seasons of Drew Pomeranz? Hmm.

 

[Heyward]

I dont think we would have gotten Moncada, but Benindenti, Devers or Ezpinosa+ would have been attainable if thats the cost for Pomeranz.

Wow... They got Espinoza for him?

 

[UNCBlue012]

It tells you how much we want for Julio

I like Pomeranz' talent, but this is a key detriment to his value . . .
