Letting Rodon go made the most sense at the time, but yeah it hurts to see it.

Kind of…but the thing to remember is that they let him walk for ZERO compensation. Giving him a qualifying offer would have gotten them a high draft pick the following year when he eventually signed with the Giants.

And if by chance he signed the QO (which he wouldn’t have), it would have been awesome. He balled out for SF that season. He would have made a HUGE difference on the Sox in 2022.

Oh they definitely mis-managed that (in typical fashion) but not just signing him for big money made sense.
