Then I wouldn't imagine they were offering much more beyond a Shuster/Gowens/Shewmake package.

If Fedde calms down and becomes what Clevinger was last year - just a steady guy who can take the ball every 5th day over the last 2 months, paired with a reliever, he could get a guy. He's not Giolito, and there's no myth of Lynn. But if Kenyan Middleton could get Juan Carela, and if Kendall Graveman could bring back Korey Lee, a serviceable Erick Fedde could at least bring back a live bat who could field his position.

Now Bryan Ramos is the person the opposing pitcher pitches around.

Maybe the White Sox are waiting for Jared Walsh to get a hit at AAA so they can put him on the 40-man and bring him up.

TA7 was still seeing stars, so he couldn't really break away and take another punch to his glass jaw.

That's a 4-game hitting streak, and a 6 game on-base streak for Lopes.

Treatment PlanFirst aid for shock includes having the person lie on their back, raising their legs to help blood return to the heart, stopping any bleeding, covering them with a coat or blanket to ensure warmth, and performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), if needed.

Swinging on the 3-0. I wonder if TLR's going to give him a phone call tonight.

If I drop the amount of qualifying PAs down to 10, Sheets is 11th in the game in fWAR. His defense there is still terrible. He's probably really just a DH. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/major-league?lg=all&season=2024&season1=2024&ind=0&type=8&month=36&sortcol=21&sortdir=default&pageitems=100&qual=10&pagenum=1

His RF defense wipes out any offensive contributions. If he were parked at 1B/DH, he probably would have accumulated more.

Did Clev grab his arm, or something? That would be a good development.

Well, nobody has to worry about Nastrini and Cannon getting their long looks this season.

Just stop. I'm not spending my day reading through all this guy's posts just so I can respond to your pedantic harassment. I've made my point.

At this point, you're just a constant stream of bibbledy-babble, I don't even fault you for not being able to keep track of what you posted.

4/20 Sox @ Phillies 5:05PM CT WhiteSox2023 replied to DoUEvenShift's topic in 2024 Season in Review I didn’t? I said that the acquisitions of DeJong, Fedde, Maldonado, Lopez, Soroka, Flexen, and most of the bullpen acquisitions were all garbage. Nice of you to try to change history but it’s too late. Everyone knew these acquisitions sucked at the time but you. You tried to hype these bums up. Do you really want me to go back and prove it out with your recorded posts via the search engine? You said these things and everyone here knows it. Why do...

People like that guaranteed that "Fedde would suck" because he had success in Korea. I'm starting to think that account is a sock puppet for one of the mods to troll.

Sosa is not the equal of Witt.

You too.

Sounds like you should be talking to a therapist, and not whining to anyone who will listen.

I'm not aware of any excuses. All roads seem to lead back to Chris Getz having done something really bad to you at one point in your life. The Orioles didn't seem to prepare Jackson Holliday to be a major leaguer. Lenyn Sosa had a few extended opportunities in the majors. He sure seems like a AAAA player to me.

It is if they aren't seen as a major source of offense. And when Sosa came up, he was kind of portrayed as the guy who is raking at AAA. But he didn't hit for a week, pressed, started making boneheaded mistakes, then he's seen as part of the problem. Right now, I could see bringing Sosa back up and giving him an extended look. Benny, Pham, Sheets, Mendick and Lee are all pretty much producing. DeJong and Lopez are what they're going to be. That's a situation where Sosa won't be making headlines for messing up a rundown.

If you think DeJong is bad, wait until you see what Jose Rodriguez and his AA .177/.288/.294 stat line would look like in the majors. When you introduce guys like Fletcher, Sosa or Colas to a 3-20 team, where nobody is hitting, they will fail. The spotlight is right on those guys, they press, and get worse. If you at least have a team of players who can carry their own weight, then you have the opportunity to plug Lenyn Sosa in at 2B or 3B, and let him flail for weeks until he gets his feet under him. You can't run an entire lineup of those guys out there.
