Harry Chappas Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Eloy is not going to preclude the White Sox from signing big money guys. Yoan, Gio and Anderson can cost the White Sox large sums of money as they have skill-sets that can cost a team an uncomfortable amount of money.

Baron Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 On 670 they are talking about the manager. That's one of the bigger question marks now. Rick and his horrible lineups. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chetkincaid Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I know this is off topic but God I want Mookie Betts in RF. Offer Boston Vaughn, Dunning, Mazara and Basabe for Betts. Sign Betts to a 7 year $245 extension. A guy can dream, can't he? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, if it is very team friendly. I don't think we need Magical the first month to be honest. I also don't think he is talented enough of a hitter to warrant the risk.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 18 minutes ago, Moan4Yoan said: $76 million dollars guaranteed without ever playing a major league game. Good for Robert and good for the Sox. Yeah, one thing I truly find fascinating about this organization is their risk assessment; Jerry is more comfortable guaranteeing someone like Robert, who has never played a big league game, nearly 100 million dollars total, than he is doling out long term deals for veterans. I think the logic here is that Hahn has shown that he succeeds doing this, and Jerry is happy to accept that risk because their is a big potential reward for it. FA contracts really don't have huge possible rewards as they are almost always paid market value. A guy like Robert may actually end up being worth 200 million so Jerry will take the shot on him. It's interesting how they assess risk, and to be honest it's honestly something the White Sox might be the best in all of baseball at doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
