The duality of the Chris Sale contract

I will not say anything bad about Chris Sale. He wants to absolutely rip Major League Baseball’s best hitters to shreds as a member of the Boston Red Sox, and in this we are aligned. I would also like him to do that. It would be nice.

Nor will I say anything bad about Chris Sale’s contract, which has been the subject of ridicule in recent days as the lefty was transferred to the 60-day injured list. From where I’m sitting, it was the cost of doing business the Dave Dombrowski way, something that ultimately got him fired and Mookie Betts shipped out of town, albeit after the best season in Red Sox history, which Sale finished with a flourish.
