  1. Imagine an infield of Correa 3B, Lindor SS, Timmy 2B and Alonso 1B...
  2. What if you get a 30-40 HR potential catcher and top prospect in baseball?
  3. This is not the prorated 40 HR / season, "average" OF, Eloy, from 2019...this is the current 40 HR total in his last 3 seasons combined DH, Eloy. The #1 prospect in baseball who also happens to be a catcher (current hole in our lineup) with incredible power and a career .827 OPS 2B coming off a batting title that also plays another position of need while having 2 more years of control...let's not overrate our own guys.
  4. Alvarez starts at C, McNeil at 2B and Grandal (catches 35 games)/Sheets/Burger at DH. The team might actually be better.
  5. Yeah, not buying this AT ALL. If this is the return, it would be for Hendriks + Eloy.
  6. If health (and it's usually been lower body issues impacting his mobility and stamina) is the issue with Moncada, moving to 2B exacerbates the situation.
  7. Was hoping that McClure would reprise the Clu Haywood role and be the biggest Indian killer of them all. Once Cleveland switched to the Guardians, he was expendable.
  8. Yes, Boone, you held it down well for Bobby Jenks too.
  9. What year was it when Kenny tried to create a super bullpen with like 5 guys that threw 98-100 mph? Problem was that most of them couldn't actually pitch well.
  10. I'm sure Liam Hendriks has kept him up to speed on what's being said on here.
  11. Great. Now fake uncle Luis can keep tweeting at everyone who posts a highlight or comment about Yermin to "release him or trade him." I checked out that guy's activity on twitter and he's remarkably consistent and persistent in his tweets from the beginning of July until today.
  12. That might be the "buy now" price today but a week from now, it will be less than that. I don't think the White Sox blink on this one.
  13. Rick, is that you? If you had your druthers, I'm sure you would have released him since he's mired in mediocrity and won't help us compete for multiple championships.
  14. I wonder if that Chicago joint will remove the Yerminator from their menu and replace it with a Burger Burger
  15. Do you mean those people that are able to use google translate and those that are not?!?
  16. I don't think he cares to add accentos to his letters so maybe "el retiro?" is him asking sarcastically if "he retired?" Like he's being passed up for call ups (i.e. Zavala over him when Grandal was hurt) and future is cloudy (sox acquiring his clone is Devy Grillon). Removing all White Sox mentions is the key here...he is probably pissed (whether traded or not).
  17. But they also got Shane Baz (top 100 prospect) and not 2 scrubs (Flete and the other guy). But, agree, I like our haul.
  18. Wasn't he suggesting (tweeting/blogging) Quintana to Pirates for Glasnow or Meadows + another mid-tier prospect? When it was all said and done, they gave up a lot more for Archer a year later. Looking back at it, would we have preferred Glasnow, Meadows and Baz for Quintana instead of Eloy and Cease? I like our return better but I'm biased.
  19. I'd deal Thompson, Sosa and Rutherford for Frazier in a heartbeat.
  20. Will Tim Beckham ever get a shot at 2B on the MLB club? Maybe he will infuse a spark a la Goodwin and be the answer for rest of season at 2B. Leury has been fine but best served as a super utility guy leading up to and through the playoffs. This way, we can focus our assets to acquire a high leverage reliever...or two. Or swing for the fences with Gallo in RF...a lineup with Eloy/Vaughn, Robert and Gallo and then late inning OF w Engel/Hamilton, Robert and Gallo is stacked. If it costs Sheets or Burger ++, I'd do it.
  21. Kahnle had control, a live arm and relative youth so if you are talking Burger for someone like that, great. If its for a rental, then forget it.
  22. White Sox should try and pry Brad Hand. Choices and options for all high leverage situations 9th: Hendriks - Hand 8th: Kopech - Bummer 7th: Heuer - Crochet
  23. Burger is someone you trade in a package for a core piece moving forward. You don't trade him for a rental or a 1.4 year guy who would play out of position next year.
  24. What I've deduced is that Maloney isn't a current foodie but is actually just the reincarnation of Orlando. Can we check when Orlando disappeared and when Maloney joined?
