    Screw WAR Trading Benni is going to big mistake, Theo and his team were always good Talent evaluators, if they want him, it means keep him.
    I agree, you shouldn't trade him, but if the return is Stanton you have to listen.

    If we take the whole salary, it shouldn't take Beni.

    Boston Red Sox

    Exercised options on Chris Sale and Craig Kimbrel
    Non-tendered Brock Holt, Robbie Ross, and Josh Rutledge
    Trade David Price to the Phillies for JoJo Romero, Dylan Cozens, and Cornelius Randolph. Boston will pay $10 million on Price’s 2018 salary. If he chooses to stay (declines his player option), Boston will also pay $10 million for each of 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022
    Traded Xavier Bogaerts, Jackie Bradley Jr., Brian Johnson, Blake Swihart to the Marlins for Giancarlo Stanton
    Traded Bryan Mata and Roniel Raudes to the Athletics for Jed Lowrie and Liam Hendriks
    Traded Joe Kelly to the Phillies for Freddy Galvis
    Traded Tzu-Wei Lin to the Braves for R.A. Dickey
    Signed Doug Fister to a 1 year, $5 million deal with a $5 million club option
    Signed Bartolo Colon to a 1 year, $3 million deal
    Signed Logan Morrison to a 2 year, $18 million deal

    Sox need a big bat in the middle of the lineup. I'm sure they are looking beyond the obvious of Stanton and Martinez. I don't know about giving up Benni though.

    Rumor has it that the Marlins are being offered a top pitching prospect plus from the cardinals and full salary relief.

    This way

    Red Sox get Stanton and Volquez
    Cubs Get Benintendi and Prado
    Marlins Get Russell and Chavis

    That way the Sox do not have to take on Prado's contract and the Marlins don't have to take on Castillo's
    I'd just assume leave both out and send Bradley. Just because the Cubs want Benintendi doesn't mean they'd take no one else. And the Sox need someone who is pre-arbitration.

    The Marlins might be reluctant to include Volquez. Not sure. But no one wants Prado and they do have a lot of big, ugly contracts. Ziegler being another. ..

    I'm hearing Cardinals and west coast teams have best shot at Stanton.

    Must be a Sox fan

    "This team won over 180 games and two division titles in the past two years!! IT MUST BE TORN DOWN!! COMPLETELY AND ABSOLUTELY! !!"

    Given that number of traded I'm guessing this blogger is either Jerry DiPoto or a close relstive

    They apparently have made a grwat offer, supposedly including Luke Weaver.

    Big obstacle appears to be Stanton and his expressed desire to go to either coast...

    Miami righthander Edinson Volquez, who is owed $13 million next season, might not pitch in 2018 after undergoing Tommy John surgery in August:

    They teally don't need one. They were still one of the top scoring teams without one. That's just the quick easy fix.

    Nine teams in the AL hit more home runs than Boston and still scored fewer runs. Home runs are exciting and fun, but any upgrade over Mitch Moreland will be an improvement.

    But I hope it isn't Hosmer. Carlos Santana? Yes. Hosmer? No...

    Do you have a link to a report that St. Louis is offering full salary relief?
