Anyone who does is foolish. At least you know now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I knew for sure they would spend it, I think I’m more intrigued by a cheaper relief option and other upgrades than maxing payroll for Hendriks. However, with the rumors of trades the last few days, I have no idea what to expect now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Trevor Rosenthal is the correct answer. He is an old, ineffective guy Tony may still remember as a Cardinals draft pick while he was there. He is also a lot cheaper, so Jerry may all Tony to pull the trigger for $2M-$4M, or $0.5M-$1.5M prorated once the cancelled regular season games are factored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Vinnie Duber and the rest of the water carriers will try to convince everyone that the Sox made the right choice by not signing Hendriks. What else is new. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will offer what they deem is fair and if it requires extensive negotiations, that’s when they lose ground. But we won the bidding war for Adam Eaton 🤷♂️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 It might be a plant to drive up a price. But not the White Sox price. I think agents know they aren't going to maneuver their way to an extra $10 million from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not putting much stock in him visiting Toronto just yet, other than there is interest. Players take visits during free agency all the time.
