How many of them can tell you anything about the '82 or '86 team? (I go to a LOT of Angels games btw - the families will show up and they'll care about that day's game, but they really don't care longterm. Just like the Ducks.)

iWiN4PreP Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Marco Gonzalez and Kyle Seager is such a White Sox move, it makes me absolutely sick. Edited January 8, 2021 by iWiN4PreP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) Portillos has to have a source because when he is making stuff up he makes no sense. He has mentioned the Sox may absorb Seagers or Alex Cobbs contract for a mediocre pitcher. There is zero chance of that. JR doesn’t like paying guys who can help him win that much money, let alone contract dumps. Edited January 8, 2021 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I wanna hate Gonzalez and don't particularly want to spend on him but he's like a way better pitcher than I remember every single time I look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On twitter a couple days ago someone asked what the Heuer/Stiever/Collins package would land and I replied Gonzalez and that I hoped I was wrong. But with you, since looking at his numbers he's solid and cheap until his last season. Had no idea he was that good last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Gonzales is actually better than I thought he was. He’s not my first choice by any means, but it wouldn’t be awful either (depending on what it takes to get him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys that have had their best years elsewhere, are overpriced for what their output is. Middle of the road average Joes type players like Edwin/Nomar of last year. bad average with some pop no upside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
