We got a starting pitcher for a year with an $8M salary for a MLB/pitching prospect with 6 yrs of eligibility when the SOx could've just spent on one. Yeah they could have spent 45 million a year on Bauer or signed an inferior pitcher to Lynn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then Gallo doesn’t have enough play in CF to actually claim he’s much more than average to below average for that position...for those who watch him day in and day out, such as scouts or Rangers’ fans.

Grandal has a .324 OBP despite hitting .130 and most of the fanbase hates him. Gallo has a chance to be Adam Dunn that can play defense, I'll say that much. I wish he'd actually go back to hitting for more power, as he's basically a single/walk guy right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should go over well with this fanbase! THIS IS EXACTLY RIGHT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t recall saying Gallo is a Robert/Engel caliber CF. Actually I never said anything about Gallo, but odds are you‘ll survive with him in center for acouple of weeks 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should fit in just fine with the Sox at age 30 and on his fifth or sixth organization. But who knows, maybe he plays closer to Michael A. Taylor with the Royals.

Keep bringing guys like this in - stick them in AAA and hopefully 1 hits enough to get a shot, and can bridge us to Engel. I doubt Goodwin is that guy, but he's an option.

So over 162, he's a 1-1.5 WAR player. When you're in desperate need of OF depth and he doesn't cost anything but a minimum ML contract, you take it.
