Yeah, but you know the Sox intend to get better with this move. They get 2 young players with a lot of upside and expunging the 2 big contracts knocks $60M off their payroll. And we know what the Sox do when they have some cash in their pocket.As a Yankee fan I love this trade,
Betts used to absolutely destroy us. The further away the better. Good riddance.
Honestly though Betts is one of the best right fielders these eyes have ever seen.
He'd look mighty fine in pinstripes two years from now......
Not just the Yankees. all Red Sox opponents in the AL East will get kicked in the ass by this move. Sending Price along with Betts makes me think it may have been if you want Betts you get Price too or no deal. That is a lot of money off the payroll.Yeah, but you know the Sox intend to get better with this move.

So if it's not Mookie, some other Sock(?) will be a thorn in the side of Yankees fans.
The thing with Mookie is he would go through a wall to beat us. Pedroia was the same way.Yeah, but you know the Sox intend to get better with this move.

+1 What team would sign a 12 year deal, like WTF...he'll be 28 this year.Goes to show where the Boston upper brass heads are at. Betts wants 12 years around 400 million. They already got the better part of his career on the cheap. They don't want pay him on the back end of contract when he's shit, so they got to unload him and David Price's contract off the books as well.
