Astros stole signs electronically in 2017 -- and the White Sox noticed
bmags replied to Jose Abreu's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Baseball punishments have been very strict, and this is a thing that could piss off other owners who give Manfred his support -
Tie Tauchman to Happ and Yanks eat $3M and maybe throw in Bird. We send Lopez and Fry. We solve for LH RF who can play defense and mash plus 4-5 starter plus LH bat off bench or DH (Bird might not be ready to take field at 1B but if he is, he's great flexibility/depth).

Is Reilly's daughter a great bar? Go Br. Rice!!! -
Backup. He still needs some reps there.
-
One of these decades you'll know what it's like to be stuck with a bad QB

Me too. And who knows. They may be. But this tarnishes it for sure. -
We still shouldn’t help the Yankees get him.
-
The money will be spent!
-
I mean, the Sox aren't going to sign him (I'd love to come back and eat crow because of this comment 2 months from now lol).
-
Why not? Colome has 1 year of control and the payroll is so low.
-
Yes let’s help another team get elite talent please
-
Well, we're always good to take another team's expendable veteran off their hands (with a salary subsidy) and send back prospects to save on payroll...

So you're basing this on a comment section that is publically available, got it. Actual executives and reporters are saying the hammer is coming down. -
Sherman brings up idea of JA Happ and pitching prospect to the Sox https://nypost.com/2019/11/19/j-a-happ-trade-rumblings-part-of-yankees-gerrit-cole-puzzle/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

With Colome at around 10 million and Herrera at 8, I am not sure we go beyond a 3-5 million reliever.

On MLBTR, the majority of comments were people saying if you expect more than a fine you're setting yourself up for disappointment -
As the backup or the 3rd catcher?
-
What I meant was if he ACTUALLY ends up with that $17.8 million one year salary, rather than the reported 2/$25-30 or 3/$40-45 million extensions that were being negotiated (and probably still are).
-
If this were to be the WhiteSox offseason plan I would be pissed. They could sign Grandal, Wheeler, Rendon, Kuechel, Betances and trade for Starling Marte/Joc/Nimmo/Mancini and barely squeak by in the top 10 for payroll. Rick, Kenny, and mainly Jerry need to really have a stellar offseason especially after last year’s debacle otherwise, and I can only speak for myself, I lose all faith in them ever building a winner.
-
Yeah since he's had such a good career and his lower half isn't completely shot or anything, not to mention how terrific of a guy he is
-
^^^ I like that. Although Lindblom might want the opportunity to be in the starting rotation somewhere. I think he’s one of the more intriguing options on the board.

Non-tender Yolmer Trade Luis Gonzalez + Codi Heuer for David Peralta (1 year $8.5M) Sign Wheeler - 5 year / $95M Sign Yasmani Grandal 4 years / $72M Alex Wood - 1 year / $8M Sign Josh Lindblom - 2 years / $7.5M Sign Derek Dietrich - 1 year / $3.5M 2020 payroll: ~$130-135M Late April 26-man roster / lineup: CF Robert, 3B Moncada, 1B/DH Abreu, LF Eloy, C/DH Grandal, SS Anderson, Peralta LF, McCann C/DH, 2B Madrigal BN: Collins, Leury, Engel and Dietrich Rotation: Gio, Wheeler, Cease, Wood, Lopez (Kopech / Rodon to come) Pen: Colome, Bummer, Fry, Marshall, Cordero, Hamilton, Lindblom, Burdi Dietrich and Leury fill in at 2B and CF first few weeks. Plenty of money comes off before 2021 to take a run at a real RF to polish the roster.

this is disappointing because I was a fan of that Astros team on account of them being so damn good..... oops -
Chris Martin off the board. 2 year $14 million back to Braves. Always felt he was a cheaper pen option that made some sense.
