Voo: I hope this fits your intent but I keep hoping for a move that gets us a right fielder. I'm sick of the Norma Mazara and Adam Eaton types. RF is a key position that the Sox don't seem to pursue the best talent. Adam Engel can play the position but is hurt and I like him filling in all OF positions. So my question is what should the plan be for 2022?

Engel (as long as the medicals say there is no long-term concern, I have no problem with Engel being given the starting RF role in 2022)
Adolfo (if he continues to mash in AAA and has a good Spring, he could earn a spot)
Goodwin
Cespedes (but not likely until late next year)
Sheets (break glass in case of emergency only)
External options are too numerous to list right now. But I don't think they go big on a FA RF. If Jerry finds an extra $20M lying under the couch cushions then I'd rather they direct those funds towards bringing back Rodon. If they do bring in someone it will be a lefty as all the other primary outfielders are right-handed.

I'm not saying resigning Rodon is wrong as long as the contract is sensible (knowing his history) but this is how we end up with Mazara/Eaton in RF. And not Sheets please. Gavin should be at 1B/DH only.
