Sox fans: We are going to be spend big in free agency! We have a low payroll AND playoff money! Getz:

I’m not convinced he is even that much better than Kay to be honest with you.

If anyone had delusions of grandeur about the Sox spending big on higher tier free agents this offseason because their payroll is so low and they have so much money to spend, just look at the three names that they have been rumored to be interested in thus far. Nothing has changed.

If this is the single “big” move to improve the rotation, it wouldn’t move the needle much. He would be an improvement over Kay at the backend of the rotation, but not much more than that.

You have spent the entire thread making up lies. Of course your lies weren't addressed to me, but I am sure going to challenge them. Everyone else can handle this, even the ones who don't think the Railyards are ideal. You are the entire problem here. Continue your lies, and you will be continually challenged on them. Stay mad.

Eh I guess he’s in the tier I more expect them to ship in but man if you brought him in and only him that would be disappointing. There would have to be a bigger add

Yeah he seems more like a depth, back end guy. We need stability and innings and he has historically provided neither.

The risk isn’t worth the mediocre reward for May. They need someone more likely to provide stability and innings to the rotation.

He was pretty good before TJ surgery, but not much after.

Yeah it’s pretty cool.

Every time I see that guy throw a ball, I think his arm is gonna break off and fly out of the stadium.

You failed to add any substance to this discussion. Zero. You tracked my posts with vengeance and anger despite the fact that nothing was addressed to you. What for? An addiction to one-upmanship? I have at times encountered know-it-alls who get mouthy and challenge others for sport. I ignore them, especially the anonymous keyboard warriors. Waste of time.

Huh? He hasn’t been good for years and he rarely stays healthy. He’s more of a #4 or #5 starter. This would be a less expensive flier signing and likely right up the Sox usual alley, so sadly it wouldn’t be a surprise.

Would be Sox #2 starter, at worst, a 3.

Paging Pete Gray…

I like they're interested, but I'm not really sure how I'd feel about it. He gives me some durability concerns and potential reliever risk, and I'm not sure how that plays if both him and Taylor are in the rotation for next year. Nice to see them attached to a big(ger) name FA.

Two factoids today: November 12, 1959 - He helped lead the White Sox to their first pennant in 40 years and because of his contributions on the field and in the clubhouse, Nellie Fox became the first member of the franchise to be named American League M.V.P. Fox hit .306 that year with 191 hits, 34 doubles, 70 RBI’s and 71 walks (as compared to only 13 strike outs!) Fox also led the league in put outs, assists, total chances and fielding percentage for all second basemen. He also was named to the All-Star team that season. Nellie would get 16 first place votes by the Baseball Writers Association of America and beat out teammate, shortstop Luis Aparicio, 295 points to 255. Pitcher Early Wynn, who’d win the Cy Young Award that season, would finish third giving the Sox the top three spots in the final voting. November 12, 2020 – It was a very strange baseball season but one thing that didn’t change was the excellence of Sox first baseman Jose Abreu. From start to finish of the abbreviated 60 game season the big slugger produced and because of that he was named the American League M.V.P. by the Baseball Writers Association of America. Abreu finished with 374 total points beating out the Indians Jose Ramirez. He became the fourth White Sox player to win M.V.P. honors, joining Frank Thomas (1993-94), Dick Allen ('72) and Nellie Fox ('59). Abreu's 60 RBIs over 60 games led the A.L. for a second consecutive season. He finished second with 19 home runs and fourth with a .317 batting average. He also ranked fifth with a .987 OPS and was the only A.L. player to rank in the Top 5 in hits (76, first), RBIs, slugging percentage (.617, first), extra-base hits (34, first), total bases (148, first), home runs, average and OPS. A highlight of his season was six home runs in a three-game series against the Cubs at Wrigley Field including four straight over two games.

Woof that guy stinks! Pass.

The last stat definitely checks out.

Fair.
