Turning 37 and his fWAR has declined since his peak four seasons ago. On paper, this year's fWAR is worth around $25 million, but think he gets $30/35 million per year on a 2-3 year deal. That's where things get complicated. Properly evaluating Trevor Mahle, for example.

throw money at King, and Rasmussen if he doesn't get his option picked up

Memo to the next owner.

Do any of you foresee bullpen arms being tired for next season based on their usage this year? I am assuming we miss a couple months next year so that might not be an issue, but in the case of a full season?

I am running into an issue where Soxtalk doesnt open unless im on a vpn. Posting screenshots from my phone, but it also happens on my pc. Tried different browsers, same issue. Chrome, Safari, Edge

I honestly thought Droth was a star wars character for a second. Meidroth is a defensive downgrade over Colson at Short in my opinion.

Him or Sonny Gray are the two free agents I want the most.

Davidson straight stealing year 343 of rebuild.

This is exactly what happened in 1994-1995.

The special advisor thing isn't that big of a deal. To me it's more marketing than anything legit.

What the f*** does a senior advisor actually do? Besides just get paid to hang out. Can I be a senior advisor, as a White Sox fan? In all seriousness, I know that the Assistant GM who runs the R&D department used to work for the Rays front office. I think they are basing themselves off the Rays. It's much better then it used to be.

Dude punched a teammate over fantasy football. He's more than grouchy or unlikeable.

This is one of the very few years in WS baseball that they could just stand pat and improve. @southsider2k5 brought up an excellent point about salaries potentially falling with the upcoming labor deal. Perhaps teams may not be spending like they have in the past. Hopefully, that brings some players into the market the Sox always shop at.

My guess is you weren't a fan of the Szmarzjia special? Give up 5 or 6 early but still go 6 innings or at least that's how I remember him. And I am sure I misspelled his name but I don't care.

For me it is earbuds. All the damn time. I just spend 30 minutes looking for mine. I have a set for my workshop that always live in one place, but my second (and third and fourth) pairs are always missing. Plus why do backpacks have black linings? It is impossible to find anything in there.

I had Gemini analyze the Brewers and Sox Front Office Directories listed publicly on MLB.com and break down the differences in philosophy between the two teams:

World Series Winnerhighest and lowest payrolls almost the same odds now...that just couldn't happen in NFL or NBA TEAMODDS MIL+105 LAD+350 TEAMODDS CLE+400 TB+475

Strike quick....need starting pitching badly.

I’m good with that

$14.5 million for a -0.1 fWAR. He’s going nowhere.

For 4 years and $120 million?

Michael King thinking of opting out of his contract.....go get him.
