I am not sure why you think he would laugh that deal away. Bruce is still young (and cost controlled for a few more years), has 35 home run power when healthy and hopefully just needs some better coaching to help him iron out his woes at the play regarding contact. Johnny Cueto is a freaking ace in either league and if you allow Boston to negotiate a long term contract to ensure they get him for the long haul, to be honest, Boston is making out like bandits as no one on that list have proven themselves at the major league level yet except Koji Uehara. I think a top 5 pitcher is worth something don't you? How much would you expect to pay for a Clayton Kershaw? I am not saying Cueto is quite as good as Kershaw, but not far off. Do you think Boston would get the better part of the deal with Kershaw in that same example, or would LA with what I suggested back. Hell, basically I threw Bruce in to offset the cost for us on Castillo's contract. None of this matter anyways, because Castillo can't be traded, which I hadn't realized at the time I mentioned it. I don't think what I was suggesting was laughable. I think Castillo can be dealt. Uehara though is a free agent. See, I didn't realize that either, as I looked over the Red Sox roster and it still shows that he is on their roster. Stupid MLB.

Koji just signed a 2 year extension with Boston - a couple of days before he would have become a Free Agent.
