Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

Not at this stage.

Now these guys are fighting for NRIs or they're fighting to, to get major league deals and not take NRIs.

BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

And Danny Kula might be in the territory now where you take one and, and have to fight for your spot.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I think he'd earn it, but yeah,

BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

A guy coming off the couple of seasons that he's had weirdly got non-tendered by the Orioles two seasons ago off another good season.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

Teams just don't believe in guys that throw low 90s.

BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

But the surface numbers speak for themselves with Danny Coulomb.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I want to start it off with one of you guys.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

Sammy, where do you have Danny Coulomb signing for this offseason?

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I also have him with the Red Sox.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I think the Red Sox have needed a lefty reliever all offseason.

BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I think they could try to sell it to the fan base, not acquiring one, say how much they love Giovanni Moran, say that we believe in Samaniego, say at some point if it gets there that Patrick Sandoval could be an effective lefty out of the pen.

They have options that they could turn to, and they got it right last year.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

They signed Justin Wilson when no one thought he could pitch, and they got it right.

But when you're a team like the Red Sox that's trying to compete for a World Series, and you've got a good lefty like Danny Coulombe out there, and he's probably not asking for much, and it's going to be a one-year deal, very low risk.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I just don't understand why you'd put yourself in a position to potentially have to trade for that need mid-season when the type of guy that you'd be trading for is available right now for not very much.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

So I have him going to the Red Sox, and that's something I just absolutely think the Red Sox should do.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB Notes: Where Are The Remaining Free Agents Going To End Up?

I like it, Pat.

I like the creativity because you knew, I mean,
