For much of the winter, I was convinced that Mookie Betts would be in a Red Sox uniform on Opening Day.
Now, I'm not so sure.
I believed that the Sox would hold onto Betts -- at least to start the year. I thought they might make one more (public) offer on a contract extension, and then re-assess where they stood in July at the trade deadline. I found it hard to believe that, coming off a disappointing season, the team would effectively wave the white flag on the 2020 season by trading away its best player.
Now, I'm not so sure.
