Boston, NY and Baltimore 3 of the easiest LF’s to cover – not very big but he looked like he was chasing a falling leaf

Great trade. (Sarcasm)

Sure, he sucked as a member of the Sox, but he’s a good guy AND his contract is out of our hair now.

Good luck in LA Carl, hope you do well.

He had no real medical issues until he went to the BoSox. Maybe you should wait until he actually plays for the Dodgers before you declare him a bust. Here’s hoping your god isn’t as pessimistic and critical as you are…

Shaughnessy and company have a “mean” fastball that probably can’t be matched in the NL west.

God only knows how many injuries are on his horizon.

I expect some “soreness” or “discomfort” in your future.

Signed, Red Sox fans who have seen this before.
