so what's the real reason they're goin' for Berrios? Like, I'm glad they're tryin' to rebuild their farm system and all, but this feels like a calculated move... think about it, they just signed him to a minor league contract
. That means if he doesn't pan out, it's not a big loss. But what if he does become a solid contributor? Then suddenly the Red Sox have a hidden ace in their pocket
. And let's be real, they're doin' this just before the offseason when all the high-profile free agents are gonna get snatched up
... it's like they're stockpiling talent for a rainy day
. I'm not sayin' Berrios won't succeed or anything, but there's somethin' fishy goin' on here
