No need to move Beni. Beltre is 38 years old and has been a great player but expecting him to contribute as more than a part time player is optimistic. I would move Swihart as he is showing no real promise.
    Pillar will be very expensive at this point

    Todd Frazier is making about 7 mill and at half that he might fit. Should be easy to get from the Mets. He's hitting about 225 and 7 homers. We almost picked him up last year.

    Just say no to Machado.

    Even if Machado weren't a punk, I would rather have Devers.

    Face Palm
    In the town where I was born
    Lived a man who sailed to sea
    And he told us of his life
    In the land of submarines
    So we sailed up to the sun
    'Til we found a sea of green
    And we lived beneath the waves
    In our yellow submarine

However, I think you need to find a second base option that's capable of hitting lefties and being a day to day starter. Presumably, Castro would cost too much to acquire, so to me Lowrie is the best option
    Lowrie doesn't hit lefties well.

    Boston sports fans being known the world over for their warm, inviting personalities and easy acceptance of new faces.

    We need a late innings by reliable reliever.

    Thornburg is a shell of his former self.

    Smith is out after surgery.

    Hand from San Diego would work.

    I honestly can't tell if you're being ironic or if you actually believe this. And I'm usually very good at making that distinction, even online. So well done, I guess?

    No worries ...I would expect a trade within 10 days for Machado
