I'm gonna be the wet blanket...
I (and most others) was of the mindset that one of Krug or Grzelcyk was going to be dealt this offseason. My opinion was that the obvious move was the latter option.
Looks like we're moving Krug now and mark my words... That's gonna hurt.
I don't want to turn it into THAT thread. This one should be about Grzelcyk and how impressive he was during the season (he was excellent) and how he earned the extension (he absolutely did). He's a good kid and I like him a lot.
I would not have have signed him.
Seeing this seems like our trade/offseason thread (or at least for now, discussion) and you didn't want to turn the Grzelcyk thread into that, I thought it'd be "ok" to take this here and touch on it. He was an RFA so why wouldn't you have signed him? Couldn't you say locking him in only gives him more value in a trade? After this contract is up, he'll still be under team control as an RFA. He's at a solid price. I'm not seeing the relation with this one. I don't think Boston moves Krug unless they're wowed by an offer. They like him a lot.
