This is just wild to me. A legit star in his prime. I guess Boston got their title so some may think it's a wash but I would have rather kept him around long term.
Happy he's out of the AL though.
Sure a lot of you know this already happened.

"a lot of moving parts" but Stirling (RHP) is going from LAD to LAA as well to help get under the luxury tax.
So even the big teams want under the salary tax, but a team like LAD know how to manage contracts better to have the ability to take on a Price/Betts.
Big move for the LAA here, moving a big arm for Pederson and Stripling.

The Sox gave away two talented pieces but to be honest, they got back two talented kids as well. Clearly this trade was about money and not talent for the Sox.
Dodgers just got A LOT better.

I'm surprised Verdugo's character history hasn't popped up in all this.
Verdugo was with LAD Prospects Urais and Baldwin drinking with females when a 17yr old female became ill and puked on a bed. The other females began to assault her (beat her up) when one of the players (rumoured to be Verdugo) filmed the assault and posted it online. However, before the assault, the 17yr old female passed out on the bed when Baldwin came into the bedroom and sexually assaulted her. He "gave up trying" when the rest of the group came into the bedroom. The 17yr old female at some point now puked on the bed.
It was in Arizona where by law if you knowingly try and conceal a crime makes you an accomplice. This happened in February 2019. It essentially got swept under the rugs.

Red Sox will end up paying the Dodgers $48,000,000 over 18 instalments over the next 3yrs. Or $2,666,667 every 6 months. Pretty solid.
