Default Keuchel & Kimbrel: What's your take?

I find it difficult to believe that these two pitchers still haven't not been signed.

While I have no idea what salary they're asking for, there definitely should be someone willing to try.

Keuchel, admittedly, hasn't duplicated his 2015 Cy Young season, made $13.2Million in 2018 and has Scott Boras as his agent...but I still think he could help Boston among others.

The Kimbrel situation is even more puzzling: Boras is NOT his agent and he averaged 13.9K/G last year...also for $13M. Though starting pitching is the Red Sox need right now, don't you think those pitchers would do better knowing that they have a still dependable closer to sew things up?

Both of this players' situations may very well be a product of Tampa Bay's revolutionary approach to their pitching staff.
