New Free Agent, would come with a big injury discount. New GM should make this a priority signing. Huge upside if he can stay healthy.

I've always wanted this guy, but man, he's hurt more than Buchholz.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
A great pitcher who never pitches. Whenever he has gotten to pitch in recent years, he comes up with a brand new injury the next day--or else goes on a 2 month paternity leave.
He should have a complete physical and send the results around to any team interested in signing him. A real mystery man or someone whose many physical problems have produced accompanying mental problems. I think he's thrown in something like two games over the past two years. Some might sign him as a reliever, I suppose.
Can you imagine a team with Salazar, Eovaldi, and Sale and facing a 180 game season.
There was a time not too long ago when I thought Danny Salazar was the most underrated pitcher in the game. A few years ago, his high Zone% combined with his low Contact% was equaled only by 4 other pitchers in MLB- guys named Kershaw, Scherzer, Price and Kluber.
Since then he has had a littany of injuries. The man has 10 pounds of talent jammed into a 5 pound arm sling. He's thrown 4 IP since 2017.
The Sox' big issue this year is likely to be the health of Price, Sale and Eovaldi. The entire season hangs in the balance of the condition of these three arms. If your main problem is pitchers with injuries, Danny Salazar is far, far more likely to be part of the problem than part of the solution....
If we are going to take a chance on a pitcher, I vote for wood.
Clay. Yes...clay.
other names i have posted under: none
I'm in on this also .The reward would be a Worldseries win .Erod,Salazar ,sale ,Price ? That's strong as death if they all have average seasons .
We can always bring back rich hill.
