Message: [QUOTE="bpo57, post: 3863305, member: 1572"] You have to admit your boy "dugie" is a better player than you thought he would be. Benintendi is playing a little bit better after a horrific start but it's not clear if he can return to what he was in 2018. I like how Dugie puts on a professional AB. He's disciplined, is tough to strike out and has some decent pop. He could be a very good player in the years to come. Mookie Betts signed for 12 years guaranteed at a cool $30+ million per year. The LAD probably don't care but they'll be choking on the back half of that contract like the NYY did with ARod. Not to mention that it was pretty clear that Betts had no interest in re-signing with Boston. Boston's fate, like every other MLB team, will be decided by their pitching. I'd rather see them plow money into pitching than spending $30 mil per year on a corner outfielder. [/QUOTE]
