Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Oh wow, amazing. Sox don't even need a rightfielder at all. No idea why they're looking for one. He hit 291 vs righties to. Problems solved. What was jocs wRc+ in sept/oct last year

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
You selected that year because its the only year the argument is even close for the point your making. That's why it has no statistical integrity.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Of course it exposes him. Those aren't the only times he'd play. He's also the back up outfielder. If he's a platoon he'll get 250-300ish abs. You guys can bank on adam Engel. I'll go ahead and ask for a true starting right fielder. Joc had a chance of being complete and utter trash too.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Engel reverted back to his same bad habits last year as the season went on. The more he'll play the more he'll get exposed. He's just not a good hitter. Too many bad habits. I used a three year sample. Its not a close comparison. Portraying it as such is statistically dishonest.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
The only person here swearing and getting personal is you pal. Get a grip of yourself. Sox haven't done something for 120 years but the smart thing to do is make sure they don't it one more time before assuming they wont lol. Great take.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
No, im railing against fans selling a Joc pederson signing as a good thing. Hilarious thing is this forum has repeatedly told me I make excuses for the front office lol. Turns out you guys are the one cheering on another cheap signingl

And now Wheeler on the market
Are you insane? He accepted 7 million dollars less to NOT play here.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
There are zero scenarios where the sox sign pederson and have the off season they should have. The only hot takes are the clowns trying to win the Value Series.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Your cherry picked evaluation of the comparison. Your convenient cut off. Why don't you show me the past three years. Here's one for you, since 2018 Joc and engel have played in 608 games and accumulated 7.3 fWAR. Springer has played in 313 games in that same window and accumulated 11.3 fWAR. Hes played nearly half the games and has 4 more WAR. You guys have lost your minds

And now Wheeler on the market
Cool. He showed he does NOT want to be here. Amazing to watch people ignore the human element of sports over and over.

They're not signing bauer, you guys have lost your mind. If they wont pay for the position player they wont pay for a sp.

Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
He has a career 689 ops vs lefties. Please spare me the small sample arguments. I wrote a piece about engels changes last year - I'm a fan of his. If ne plays a lot he will be exposed and should be relied on as a 4th outfielder. Thats it. Expecting him to perform vs a lefties all year in a playoff hunt is classic white sox.
-
Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Great im not gonna celebrate a Joc bargain bin signing though, certainly not gonna let people pretend to sell me that it's almost the same as springer while saying engel will play a lot lol. Sox fans love pain and misery. Justification for every awful move.
-
And now Wheeler on the market
Guy told your organization 12 months ago that you aren't good enough for me and people think sox would trade for him.
-
Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
Enough of this. My goodness. We're trying to win baseball games, and fans are worried about maximum dollar value. Smh And engel has had one decent year in his life where he wasn't unplayable and sox want him to be a heavy platoon player. Its baffling. Engel is A FOURTH outfielder. Nothing more
-
Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
They wont. Stop fooling yourself. The sox have never come close to playing in the deep end of the pitching pool. They are very risk averse there. If they don't get springer it will be another cheap out off season and I'm not celebrating the bargain joc buy at all.
-
And now Wheeler on the market
I want absolutely nothing to do with a guy who didn't want to play here so much so that he took less to be in Philly.
-
Joc Pederson: How long will he be a future White Sox?
So I guess we're not getting springer lol. This team is a joke honestly. Never play in the big kids pool. Sox have two real holes and they're gonna plug them with bargain deals. Its embarrassing sox fans are excited or ok with this. Jimmy been telling us the Sox been in on springer. Now selling us on joc. Lol

Len Kasper is new White Sox radio play by play announcer
Heard Kasper last night talk about why he did this, and the guy sounded like he was having a midlife crisis like me - but 17 years later lol. He said he had goals and dreams in his life and that as he got older, he realized he should pursue them now; screw money and etc because he already made enough. He basically used the example that he didn't get to call a world Series game and it killed him; it was his dream. He said in order to pursue dreams - I believe he even just started a band he's losing his mind so much lol - sometimes you need to do things that others wouldn't understand. To be honest, that made a ton of sense to me. If I was rich enough and happy in my life, who cares if I take a 50% paycut if I'm fulfilling life long dreams and goals. This actually made me like Kasper a lot more.

Marcus Semien
I think its an almost certainty that he returns to Oakland but im interested in how his market plays out. Id give Marcus 2/30 or 3/48.

Len Kasper is new White Sox radio play by play announcer
Makes sense; I've never gotten into the podcast craze. Certainly many people have; similarly to youtube videos or twitch streams, just never been media I've consumed. With this forum, the Athletic and twitter I already feel ashamed of how much of my day I spend consuming White Sox information lol. If it improves a type of media you consume and enjoy - beyond the standard radio broadcast - then it makes sense.

I was genuinely curious as the your answer, in no way was I being critical of you. I like to try and understand things I don't. Sometimes that comes off wrong online, but I even tried to acknowledge that I was a douchbag as to lighten the mood lol.
