LDF Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 23, 2015 -> 04:05 PM) 1) We did homework on the guys and pursued them as far as we could, but didn't feel that there was a fit, Regarding Yoan Lopez specifically, we felt that a 100% tax on overage charges didn't justify the cost of bringing him in. Had we done so, it would have cost nearly 2 times the value of his contract and would limit other potential signings we could make outside of him, so we just didn't feel that was the right opportunity. 2) We are always looking to improve the team and we have been in contact with a few players, but we can't say one way or the other whether or not we will obtain these players. this is my attempt of kissarse and brown-nosing. but i am serious. this is 1 of the best sites of posters who are willing to help. many thanks. can i respond to this or make a general statement as a counter??

When GMs say they could "conceivably" do something, it's as empty and vague as a statement can get and it means nothing at all. I could conceivably drive to Chicago right now and go to Soxfest because I have a car and enough money to pay for gas and a scalped ticket, but it's not going to happen.

LDF Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hey Mr Hahn and the sox brass. the sox is in need of a good starting pitchers who can provide a backup plan if a pitcher gets injured and / or to help rest the rotation for the playoff....

This is why I'm still on his bandwagon. Even though he struggled heavily last season. He still hit 20+ HRs. With how the league is scarce with power, you don't give up on that. Especially since last year was his first bad year professionally.

Defense won't really matter because Conor isn't very good either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
