I thought they were the penultimate franchise and went over the cap because they have a complete team. Not sure who said that, I laid out that most teams have pitching depth issues. Dodgers also have one of the best lineups of the last 50 years, and one of the reason they're short arms is because Bauer is a clown. With Bauer, May and Kershaw they have 6 starters - 7 if you count Gonsolin. If the Sox didn't have Giolito and Cease they'd be starting Me and Wegner.

Vaughn doesn't need to get work in against bum AAA arms. Guy needs to learn at the big league level. This we agree on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A month of Sheets over Vaughn at DH is worth an extra year of Vaughn IMO. Edited March 17, 2022 by Chicago White Sox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Vaughn is a first baseman. Even at the high end of the earning structure there's not much risk or reason to try and manipulate his service. It's just bad PR and bad process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopek Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I wonder if some sort of three-way trade with the Sox, Dodgers and A's is plausible. Something along the lines of the Sox getting Bellinger, Dodgers getting Kimbrel and Montas or Manaea, A's getting prospects and/or MLB ready talent (Sheets? Lux?). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheets is a much better hitter against right handed pitching right now than Andrew Vaughn. That's not manipulation; that's just common sense. Vaughn, meanwhile, crushes lefties. They are a natural platoon. Sure, you want to find some ABs for Vaughn against righties, but it shouldn't come by benching Sheets, who was the Sox' second best hitter last year against right handers. Yes, even better than Luis Robert. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
