    Now if the $30 mill budget was accuate, that leaves $13 mill plus whatever was deferred in Hernandez’ deal...
    It could be that they sign a reliever and call it a day. Perhaps they go with what they have in the OF and reassess midseason.

    Or perhaps we are all assuming that the Sox will stay under the cap when no such mandate exists.

    I'm not so sure that Bloom is necessarily on board with going over. He may prefer to have the reset intact in the upcoming years.

    The second sentence was attempted humor.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    Why get both Pillar and Marisnick?

    I could see Almora (BABIP-fueled bounce back/breakout?) over one of them. But if the Sox need a 4th OF, Arroyo or Chavis can be used to push Kike out there...

    Because I traded Beni for a RP'er, and we'd need OF depth. (Maybe Miller would be better.)

    Robert Osuna and his torn UCL are not part of the solution.

    Bloom reportedly has no budget. This means he is not allowed to sign Springer or Bauer...

    If “his wad” was a $7mill AAV contract, then maybe expectations need to be lowered in the face of an obvious budget crunch...

    Since this is the first official Bloom offseason, I have no idea what to really expect.
