#2 is comical.
You very easily could have spent money this offseason to do that and chose not to because you didn’t want to offer a no trade clause
Breslow is clearly changing his “I’m the smartest guy in the room” mindset after recent reports have surfaced.
Some trade stuff:
1. Tigers are telling other teams: As of now, they're not selling. The sweep of the Rays will fuel their hope of climbing back into the AL race.
2. The Red Sox are signaling to other teams that not only are they looking to add a right-handed bat, but they're also willing to spend $ to do it.
3. Right now, there is very little relief help available. Clubs looking for bullpen additions say even the worst teams won't talk bullpen swaps... yet.
