ScootsMcGoots Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Dyson just went from the 2020 Pittsburgh Pirates to the 2020 Chicago White Sox. He must be over-the-moon. Also, as a little side note, TA not the only African American on the team anymore, so that's cool. Out of all the things to love about this team, one thing that I think tends to get overlooked is how diverse it is. I love the diversity on this team. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to say in one of the other games in the series something crazy happened late on the basepaths as well....like a guy going from 1st to 3rd on a bunt or something nutty like that?

beautox Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Love this move and it doesn't affect the cuban intl sweep stakes. Dyson is a weapon off the bench as a PR and an elite defensive outfielder. Dyson-Robert-Engel is awesome. I expect Gonzalez to be sent down and Goins and Collins dropped when Sanchez and Madrigal come up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Cool, it will be nice to throw out an elite defensive OF late in games and get Eloy out of there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonofaRoache Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Trading Kopech is a no go for me, but I get why people wouldn't mind doing it. Kopech has a chance to be a top 3 pitcher of the 20's if he stays healthy. I think we need to try and get Bauer and pay him next year as well. The Reds may not want to do it, but we need to try hard to get it done. Bauer, Gio, DK, and Kopech can be a multiple championship caliber playoff rotations tarting next year. Bauer, Gio, and DK, can get it done this year if our offense shows up in the playoffs, especially with our bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I like it from the standpoint that the bullpen will probably be shorter in October. They can afford to have a second defensive replacement and a good pinch running option. Maybe he can replace “whoever” in extra inning games too.

It has no bearing on a Cespedes or Colas signing since the money that is being used is from the current international pool. Remember, they extended the international signing period. They weren’t going to use the money anyways so why not use it to add some depth to the bench.

smellysox Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) What's Pittsburgh going to do with this money? Is there anybody left in this signing period? I know who cares about Pittsburgh. Just wondering. Seems odd. Unless they really can't afford Dyson? As for the Sox I like the move. No brainer.

I don't want Lynn unless we only give up money & a sandwich or something. We don't need to add a 33 year old pitcher who's having a peak in his career by giving up future prospects that could lengthen the championship window. This move is confusing but at least doesn't cost much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
