Every time I look at Leury's stats they're better than I was expecting. Credit to him. He almost closed the first half at 100. It's crazy that he's probably gonna end up as the 6th most valuable position player on the team. Edited September 18, 2021 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a chance in hell unfortunately. Most of those guys are going to want to play SS, and there's enough teams with openings that they should fine a home.

I’ll never forget that guy or Dzybnski (sp) for his baserunning. Lol, sorry yes that sucked. Yes, if your a White Sox fan that baserunning blunder by Dybzinski is unforgettable unfortunately.

chw42 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Cease always seems to find his breaking stuff around the 4th inning. But he'll be at like 70-80 pitches by then and last only 2 more innings while looking really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of those guys are going to want to play SS, and there's enough teams with openings that they should fine a home. I remember when Machado wanted to play SS during his free agency. Then the 2 (or 1, depending on how you feel about the Sox interest in him) teams interested weren't willing to play him there and suddenly he was content playing 3rd. Players almost always are going to sign with whichever team offers them the most money, and if they're weighing other factors I think the Sox being a very good team in a hitter friendly ballpark could also break certain decisions in their favor. I'm definitely not ruling it out by any means. Who would have thought the Jays would land Semien when they already have Bichette and Biggio?

For about 25 years I thought it was 8-1 until someone here corrected me. I may have had several too many shots that night! 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still feel the same about Reylo. I still think Reylo needs a third pitch to become something as a starter. Cease has 3 plus offerings and a change up that'll work sometimes. Lopez is basically all fastballs and sliders with maybe 5 other pitches sprinkled in every outing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think ReyLo could be a very successful 3-4 inning pitcher leaning heavily on his slider like we've seen. I think an organization like the Rays or Giants would happily take what he's been showing lately for 100 innings and count that as a win. I'm just concerned Tony wouldn't be willing to take that from a "starter" given how we've seen him manage Keuchel this season.
