I believe that the high paid CEOs that are taking huge bonuses and moving jobs out of the country might have something to do with this I dunno
-
Just have a hunch, LaRussa being old school isn't looking for a rotating DH. Just like he got his way with a lockdown closer, he's going to get a DH. With each passing day, If that Nelson Cruz prize tag drops to the $10 million range for one season, you have to make a play. The guy still posted elite numbers last season. I have no problem Vaughn getting a full Minor League season under his belt.

White Sox sign Nick Williams to Minor League deal

Reading some old scouting reports, sounds like the kid at least used to play a pretty good OF, and the power showed up even at the major league level. He obviously had a horrible 2019, which put him in limbo last year, but there is some definite upside there from the looks of it. -

Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout

There is a school of thought that Katz can fix Cease and Lopez along with Kopech coming along in short order. Especially with the deep bullpen we now have. Five quality innings and turn it over to the pen. I like all Sox fans would prefer we sign TOR type and remove all doubt. -
But many here think the Sox will or should spend money on it and a FA starting pitcher and a backup catcher whereas I'm thinking we see very little spent from this point forward .
-
If predictions are true, La Stella at 2/14 is pretty cheap for what he can do. In essence, 2 players for the price of 1. He's such a perfect Sox fit, can't believe its not done already.
-
I think they are expecting Vaughn to be the DH/1B after a month or so. That means a high priced DH shouldn't be an option.
-
Today would be an excellent day for this deal to go down.
-
what's the long term prognosis on an injury like this, read it was a grade 2 shoulder tear? will that severely hinder his ability to regain his former ability?

It's definitely a need. -
IDK, his numbers digressed the next 2 years. Big K rate, too. Wonder if he had a weakness exposed. Low risk for sure, though.

Yeah, was wondering if this may be a precursor to either Rutherford or Adolfo being shipped in a deal to reduce 40 man down. This is filler. -
Just came here to say that since as i just said I doubt the Sox address the DH position with any significant money. I say it and voila ,the Nick Williams signing occurs.

Looks like Charlotte found their next AAAA star. -

DH depth i guess. Seems like he could be a decent hitter. Hopefully he just doesn't see the roster though. -

One more quality starter is a luxury...but what the heck...it would make for a fun season. -

CaliSoxFanViaSWside replied to EvilJester99's topic in Pale Hose Talk
He last pitched in his age 32 season , his last high end season. If anyone thought he was still high end after 2 years basically not pitching entering his age 35 season he won't be had for $6-8M. Just a guess he signs for more than that. Probably get's a 2 year or 1 plus an option for 10+. If the Sox sign him I'd be surprised. -

Certain media were proclaiming the Sox as favorites after acquiring Liam whereas he is replacing Colome who was superb. Then I see an MLB poll on FB suggesting the Sox will win only eight of the next ten World Series. -
I saw that, too, and was wondering why they signed another outfielder. He had a decent 2018. He'll make $900K if he makes it to the MLB roster. I could understand he being a possibility at DH/sub/filler until Vaughn is ready.

High-end: the fact that he won 2 Cy Youngs in the last 5 full seasons he pitched, and was one of the AL's top starters as recently as 2018. Low-cost: the fact that his reported asking price is 6-8 million. -

What makes you think he is either one of those ?
