It’s paywalled, are there any other details?

Heyman: The White Sox are also in the starter market after saving $22M on Luis Robert Jr. Mets, Yankees counting themselves out in Tarik Skubal talks

Yeah you might be right. I’m desperate for rumors.

Seems like a fake account. Only following 17 people, and has 29 followers.

Never heard of this reporter, but thought I’d post here.

I'm not convinced that Getz knows it isn't...

I know they have 2 Rule 5 guys but it’s not a lock they both even survive Spring Training. Maybe one.

Re the pen, I see these 5 as locks Taylor Vasil Leasure Gonzalez Newcomb And they need t0 find a spot for the 2 rule 5 guys, 1 for sure and 2 likely in the pen. For 1/2 spots, you have Gilbert who was decent and Eisert almost decent. I hope failed starters like Cannon get pen time. There really isn’t much room for Getz' $20 mill. in a rebuild pen situation.

To me, the #10 pick in last year’s draft ranked only #91 was disappointing.

They can spend it on housekeeping and general repair moves throughout the year they would be making anyway. Payroll drops. Something about the way he answered that the way he did

They do it every year and yet still win the division.

Not sure exactly where to share this, but there had been some chatter about LA's media deal situation and whether/why other teams can/'t just match their spending. The full video is a pretty efficient summary of how they've snowballed into their current superteam state.

What happened to this dude? He was pretty beastly for the Astros in 2023.

Ooh and they could do a bobblehead promo, give him 9 arms with 9 different gloves. And he can switch sides of the plate every pitch like this kid:

Why not go for it in the meaningless April games? Could generate some extra early revenue for Jerry to pump back into the roster.

Gore only has 2 years of control left. They probably don't think they can start competing again in that time frame.

I still wanna see Baldwin rotate all 9 positions in 9 innings in a meaningless September game.

Pretty sweet we have three top 100 prospects that could join the staff this year and another one in Thorpe who should be ready at some point.

He can catch grounders but has issues with routine fly balls. Baldwin's height and reach would be assets at 1st base, but 1st base is not a position that would be available on this team, so it's kind of a moot point to argue over.

He came up as more of a middle infielder. Of course he’s got 1B written all over him!

I have no idea why you think he profiles as 1B.

Someone else mentioned Seranthony Dominguez, sign me up for that. Think he would be a nice addition.

Probably right but I'm just pissed and annoyed at this organization

Yeah but think of all the resultant whingeing on Soxtalk you'll be exposed to
