Two - I know some here will prefer Colas, but I'm just so happy to see this multi-front aggression for talented players. All these guys have real potential, some have even ability to be a piece sooner than later. It's such a breath of fresh air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Great work. Feeling pretty good about the organization lately with some of the recent hires, rumored international signings, and Shirley's talking points from SoxFest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Thanks guys. There was a lot of news last week. I felt the need to sum it up. I'm really curious to see what they end up doing. The Colas situation is so strange at this point too. Nobody really knows. I put this thread on the main page if anyone wants to combine. Thanks for reading. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japanese team could let him out of his deal. They could also post him. The problem is, the posting date has passed. They could post him again in December. At that point, a tean would have to have enough international bonus pool space to sign him or wait until July 2nd 2021. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like SoftBank is exercising whatever rights it has to either keep him on their team, or, at the very least, negotiate some sort of compensation for his release. It's difficult to tell how much leverage they have with respect to the former, since it seems that Colas is currently physically missing and has probably fled the country, but my guess is that this is more of a message to MLB teams saying, "hey, this guy is under contract with us, and we are asking that you respect that, as opposed to simply signing this guy as if we don't even exist."

caulfield12 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 How would they allocate the "posting fee deal" to JPN in terms of the full cost?  That wouldn't be considered part of the team's yearly limit?  So the White Sox could give SoftBank $15-25 million, theoretically?

The player is getting like less than $5 million. These rules are all changed so I'm not really sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) So Longenhagen ain't that high on Colas. From today's chat. Quote Matt 12:05 Where would oscar colas rate by fv from what you’ve heard/seen? And any rumors on who lead(s)? Eric A Longenhagen 12:06 35, he'll be on the list of whoever signs him in the honorable mentions. Had a director comp him to a lot of the DH-only type 4A guys  Edited February 21, 2020 by DirtySox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) More. Quote mal tiempo 12:38 oscar colas isnt on the july 2 list— is there any real report on him? Eric A Longenhagen 12:39 I'd much rather have the 40 FV types I haven't ranked yet (Bies, Chourio, Guzman, Lizarraga) than Colas  Edited February 21, 2020 by DirtySox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
