Eh, that is kind of a rental. He would be gone after next year. He wouldn't be here for most of our likely championship window.

In the end, Dunning is expected to be part of this team's Championship rotation (hopefully), probably starting next year. Trading him off leaves a big hole in the rotation after next year. Especially now that Kopech feels a little less certain than he did previously. We didn't come this far in the rebuild to make reactionary, impatient moves that will hurt our chances of winning titles.

I'm not saying I know of an example they would bite on. Just that the idea of Dunning going towards Lynn would go against how Hahn has said he will approach potential trades.

Haven't the Sox made it clear that any moves would be with the future in mind also? Trading one of our top pitching prospects for a glorified rental in Lynn flies in the face of that idea.

Nick Castellanos' 1.043 OPS sure would of looked nice in our lineup. I wanted him so bad this past winter. Sigh.

Has anyone else noticed Ozzie looks like he is bleaching his skin? He has that fake whiteness to his face like Sammy Sosa has. We noticed when watching the double header on Saturday. His hands are much darker than his face. It looks weird.

He kind of downplayed the effect of Keuchel's comments. It came off as weird to me. Almost like it bothered Abreu that Keuchel stepped up like that. https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/white-sox/jose-abreu-dallas-keuchels-words-or-not-white-sox-would-have-played-better

Back to back!

The Cubs are 9-2. They aren't selling off their depth. I would be interested in Q when he becomes a free agent though.

We keep hearing Tim will improve, but he hasn't been doing that. He's a very good hitter and seems to be a great leader on the team. Maybe he's just misplaced at shortstop?

I'm not giving up on this game. Go ahead if you want. But this guy should be on his last lifeline in the rotation, not as the #3.

It's aggravating. You put Cease in as the #3, as he belongs, and they might of taken 2 out of 3 from the Twinkies and set the tone for the season.

Great. Lopez sucks and he gets Eloy hurt.

Lopez is picking up where he left off in 2019

Sox win!!

Ozzie burned the White Sox bridge down to the ground. He won't ever manage here again.

I'm not sure Kopech will be much of a fan of Cooper's comments to the media. Does he really need to talk about his battles with depression and anxiety? This is the 2nd story from the top at espn.com now. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/29450657/white-sox-pitching-coach-concerned-michael-kopech

I could see the TJ thing. The Sox probably already told him he would be used in limited capacity this year. Didn't Hahn already signal that back in the winter or spring? And for the Sox - does this open the door for them to further push him back next year. Leave him in the minors for a few months to grab yet another year. And now they have an excuse that he will not of pitched in 2 years or whatever.

Are these guys really risking anything more than the rest of us who have to work through this pandemic? We're all at risk is the way I see it.

The mlb shop ones seem to be ones that wrap around your entire head. I tried one like that and it was uncomfortable.

I agree with this. The virus is breaking out too much in too many states right now. This is a disaster waiting to happen. I think like concerts, we just gotta suck it up and say, cya in 2021.

He works out great for the star players. What about lesser players? How about Kyle Funkhouser? Boras pushed him to not sign with the Dodgers as a late first rounder. The next year he's a 4th rounder and lost millions, which he will likely never see again. Or should we get in to the Jose Fernandez fiasco?

Expanded playoffs could win us a World Series. It might be hard to beat out the Twins for the division just yet. But if the Sox can squeak in the playoffs, then guys like Kopech and Cease start to show their potential....ok I'm dreaming now lol.

Enough of the drama queen act. It's not a con, it's negotiations. In the end, the owners caved. Good for the players since it appears they're giving up little to nothing. Would it of been nice if this was done a month ago? I guess. But remember, no sports have restarted yet. I'm not sure we lost anything. Maybe some sanity was lost for those fans that followed this ordeal tooth and nail, but that's about it. The pandemic wasn't ready for this to be restarted a few weeks ago. Anyway, let's hope they seal the deal and we have our Sox in a month or whatever.

Great to hear
