I love the Red Sox

[savvy @savvytakes]

This one stings. Was excited for Marcelo ever since he “fell” to us in the draft. Obviously it has not panned out at the plate, but he has one of the best gloves in the league already at SS/3B/2B and that alone is super valuable

Erik Miller is nasty and will be popular in Boston

Red Sox are acquiring lefty reliever Erik Miller from the Giants for Marcelo Mayer

Prospect-panic has hit the TL hard today. On paper it’s a lot, but you’re getting a T5 catcher in his prime.

8 straight series wins + Dodgers sweep signaled it’s time to go all-in.

The farm will recover. You cannot however, get back this season once it’s gone.

@Steve_Perrault I don’t love it

LeBron- 42 y/o; 24th season

Embiid- less than 40 games/szn

JB- insists on high-TO first option hoops

Maxey- entering prime; forced to sacrifice most

Edgecombe- elite young player with now stunted development

Now onto the stuff that matters..

Mario Hezonja sweepstakes!

[savvy @savvytakes]

@sixringsofsteeI You’ve done more than enough MyLeague’s to know how this ends.

[savvy @savvytakes]

Taking the ball out of Tyrese Maxey’s hands as he enters his age-26 season and just had the year that he had.. doesn’t feel great!

[savvy @savvytakes]

The 76ers have now assembled a starting 5 featuring 4 players in the top 50 in usage rating last season.

They all had a usage rt above 25% (LeBron lowest at 26.1%)

This team is a mathematically impossible configuration and is taking a huge gamble on players sacrificing.

[savvy @savvytakes]

Good thing LeBron got that player option in there.

He will need it when this Philly experiment goes horribly wrong and he inevitably has his Cleveland homecoming.

[savvy @savvytakes]

From a basketball perspective I am barely moved.

From a “washed jersey” rankings perspective, I am enthralled.

BREAKING: LeBron James is signing with the Philadelphia 76ers on a two-year, $8 million deal with a player option, Klutch Sports Group and Klutch CEO and Game Over show host Rich Paul tells ESPN.

[savvy @savvytakes]

There is an awful lot of smoke surrounding where LeBron is going just for him to go back to the Cavs.

[savvy @savvytakes]

I will never be upset at a player refusing to take even $1 less than they’re owed..

BUT

SA big 3 took less - 5 titles
Brady took less - 7 titles & GOAT
Heat big 3 took less - 2 titles
Brunson took less - title & FMVP

I’m not saying it’s right, but there is precedent

@mdelNBA Referring to Chris Ryan as a “soccer guest” is a hilarious thing to read
