McCann would be fantastic depth though. Giolito's turnaround happened on his watch. Also I went back to look at McCann's splits, and his destroying lefties is the one thing that does carry over from 2019 back through his DET years

The Sox maintain some control on whether or not that happens though.

cant believe someone beat me by seconds

[SETTING: PUNTA CANA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT] [Source is boarding a plane on a windy runway, and reporter Frank Castillo is on the tarmac] [Source yells:] "Oh and one more thing, the White Sox are signing Cheslor Cuthbert!!" Frank Castillo: "I cant hear you, what did you say?" [Source yells:] "The White Sox are signing Cheslor Cuthbert!!" Frank Castillo: "What?" [Source yells:] "The White Sox are signing Cheslor Cuthbert!!" [Door to airplane closes; plane heads down the runway and takes off] Frank Castillo [to himself]: "I think he just said the White Sox are signing Marcell Ozuna."

I write my lineups on napkins 1x/week

It's going to be sad not having Hawk around to utter this guy's name on a regular basis. "Cmonnnn Cheese-lor....cmauuuun Cheese-lor. ATTA BOY CHEESE-LOR !!!!"

Betances would be a very Soxey expenditure

If the amount of suitors out there is real, as reported, then yes Keuchel gets near 4/80 Bumgarner brought down his own market because he was so intent on Arizona. It's reported he turned down higher total dollars elsewhere and I believe it. Boras is not going to let that happen with Keuchel. 4/70 hopefully is what we are coming in strong with.

keuchel to sox works in like 8 different perfect ways except for the boras part

i actually just looked this up for the first time, and it appears McCann vs. lefties is a trait that DOES hold up good even back thru the Tigers years. Platoon DH with Eric Thames perhaps? And then you've got your offense offseason concluded. Though of course i prefer a mccann trade to a prospects trade, contextless at least.

Vaughn is in a trade rumor so Bostonians can click something juicy. Thats about it

P-Gammo's bout done

Wouldnt Rick want to leak the opposite of this though? How does that help him? Unless he stays awake at night thinking about what Joe Sox Fan thinks

i'm pissed no one has mentioned my thread title's pun

older with injuries - i'd love to see him with us, but i dont see us even making a bid. keuchel is the one that makes sense re: our risk averseness
