3 months ago I would have said yes, no brainer. I still think Scott is a worthwhile target. Miami produces pitching. I’d rather try to get him with someone like Norby or combination of mid to lower tier guys like the Flaherty deal.
Lots of Scott detractors but he was elite last year. The walk totals are a concern but if he comes around he’s a difference maker.
With Guerrero unable to get himself right and whatever the hell is going on with Manoah it was easy to see a path where they'd implode.
I did kind of expect the Rays to put up more of a fight. They still looked like a team up until the bitter end last year. But between their all star shortstop being stuck in the minors, and their pitchers' UCLs all exploding I guess it's a lot to lose.
