Like the trade, now the kids do not have to close, let them learn via setup. Glad we kept Leury, glad to be rid of Avi and Davidson. Good day.

I read Hahn said one of the two non-tendered guys might be offered a contract. but at a lower salary that he would have gotten in arbitration.

the decision to waive Kevan Smith looks really stupid now. I liked the Narvaez/Smith catching combo, hard to find a good lefty bat at catcher.

I'd offer Avi a contract, the amount people said he'd get in arbitration was really stupid, really absurd. Don't know if his knee surgery will correct whatever caused him to stink last year after hitting .330 in 17.

Palka is a left handed version of Davidson, no field power guy, but Palka seems just a tad better hitter. Davidson's apparent inability to field 3rd really hurts his value.

Smith will not be missed either. We need a catcher who can help our pitchers out with framing. Narvaez was dead last out of 100+ catchers last year in framing, Smith not much better. Grandal is very good at it. Avi with horrible OBP, we need some guys to have better OBP, he could not do it. Palka way better than Davidson, maybe Eloy can DH from RH side for us at times. A very good day IMHO

Why wouldnt we take this deal? A warm body would be fine in return for Avi. Now we've non-tendered him and gotten nothing in return.

Supposedly the Sox made a trade with the Pirates.   Sox getting SP Ivan Nova, pending physical.   No word on what the Sox gave up.

 Fernando Tatis, Jr. was never considered a "who?" prospect.   He was a MLB.com "Top 30 International Prospect" when they signed him for $825k at age 16.  It was just a bad trade when they dealt him for James Shields.
