Roenthal:
Both Mookie Betts and David Price would head to Los Angeles if #RedSox and #Dodgers complete their blockbuster, a source tells The Athletic. Alex Verdugo would be centerpiece for Boston. Deal could be in place tonight, per
@alexspeier. Would require completion of medical reviews.

Passan: it's done.

Price is about 40 mil underwater. Any deal with him will involve cash going back.

I’m heartbroken. If Mookie really wants/gets $430 million I get it but he is easily my all time fav player outside of Ortiz. This one really hurts.

I'm kinda sad.
Yep. It really doesn't matter what they get back unless you like being too clever by half. I get why they did it but Boston just got worse and traded away a home-grown, generational talent. Its not the end of the world and Bloom should get the benefit of the doubt as he puts his imprint on the roster. But it sucks and is disappointing to see this franchise auction off its best player.
