Would love him as an insurance policy if Madrigal looks overmatched at the big league level.

Would any team want to pay him over $6 million?
Obviously not, but waiting for the non tender deadline would have made more sense if they wanted him back at a reduced deal.

Is it possible that the plan was to bring Yolmer back all along? Perhaps sox will announce a 1 or 2 year deal with Yolmer. Or does timing of that just not make sense right now?
It wouldn't have made sense to expose him to the waiver process. Any team could have claimed him and offered him arbitration.

What does acquiring Bundy have to do with their pursue of Wheeler?
Hahn said they want 2 starters like months ago.
-
Sheets, Rutherford and Flores probably gets it done IMO.

Imagine switching to a team that lost more games than the Sox 🤣

Mancini would complete the positional side of things once Robert and Madrigal are up. That would be amazing, doubt it happens though. What would even be a fair offer for Mancini? Dunning, Collins, Rutherford gets it done?
That seems a little steep to me.

I like Bundy a lot for the 5th starter/swingman role. His fastball/slider combo could work really well in the pen.

Either way I guess they were looking at him so take that for whatever it's worth.
There's still quite a few teams that need catching. I wouldn't mind trading him if we can get back something nice.
The catching situation around the league is pretty dire. On one hand I like what James brings to the team and obviously we have the McCann/Giolito bromance, but if some team is willing to pay up prospects wise, I don't think I could resist.

BB, I’m hearing the deal is “close” but “complicated”. You hearing something similar?
They want to announce the Strasburg signing simultaneously I guess.

k0na was the random twitter guy that broke some Jake Peavy news years back.
And the Javy Vasquez trade and the John Danks extension. k0na is a fucking legend as far as random insiders go.

I specifically meant the White Sox opening roster spots before the rule 5 draft happens so that they'd have a chance to use their pick.
Sox rarely used their rule 5 pick even when they were at the early stages of their rebuild. I don’t think they’ll start now.
-
Well good thing then that neither of these three will be on the team next year.
Yolmer could still be back btw. no team is going to tender him a contract for his arb price

Should I be ordering 500 bootleg Wheeler shirts on aliexpress or not?
This is kind of an important business decision for me, so please answer ASAP.

So I guess this means Leury is the opening day 2B when Madrigal is sent down to prove he is ready for two weeks.
-
It’s always one step forward and two steps back with this org.
Abreu is a decent bat only player, maybe even a good one, but the market has been not kind to these players in recent years. Guaranteeing him that much money is insane.

I don‘t believe for a second that the Marlins are interested in signing him. Seems to me like an obvious play by his agent.

WOW. Kind of significant news. Jose should take it.
With his production being good but not great and his glove being a liability, I doubt he would easily make 8 figures on the open market.
-
Maybe I am reading too much into it, but offering a qualifying offer seems to me that they are not going to sign him to a multiyear extension.

Think of all of the baseball-isms Hawk has coined. His announcing prime is iconic and he belongs in the hall.
I think it’s much more fun to b**** about Reinsdorf and to relitigate the Harry Caray firing from almost 40 years ago.

2-0 lead feels like 7-0.
I think the Nationals are happy to see Greinke leave and don’t care who is coming in next
Jonathan Villar traded to the Marlins

If the Sox put a claim him, they would only have to pay him for one year though. If Madrigal is as good as we hope he'll be then that's a nice problem to have.
