This is really bugging me, need some soxtalk help. Who is this player who walked back in with Shane Smith today at spring training. If I had to guess, its a RHP based on his glove and walking in with pitchers but can't find any guys on roster that look like him. Thanks.

I don’t think sheets is in the running for starting RF. Was at first two spring training practices, Sheets is not even working out with outfielders, strictly with the 1B group. Makes it seem that we’ll either see Colas or Eloy (with Sheets or Burger as DH if it’s Eloy)

Ridiculously unrealistic (due to Sox attachment to players) though financially plausible offseason plan: -Trade Tim Anderson for Ketel Marte (and Joe Mantiply if you don’t think that’s fair) -Trade Liam Hendricks and Giolito for Cody Bellinger and Austin Barnes -Sign Carlos Correa -Sign Quintana and Cueto 2B Marte SS Correa 1B Vaughn DH Eloy CF Robert LF Bellinger 3B Moncada C Grandal/Barnes RF Colas SP Cease Lynn Quintana Kopech Cueto Closer- Reylo/Crochet SU- Graveman/Bummer $30 mil for Correa= Saved ~$8 mil from trades, $18 mil from letting Abreu walk, $4 mil from Harrison

I agree 100%. Wish he’d realize that he loses credibility with every single tweet. Just unnecessary commentary and speculation

Yep this is THE WORST thing about the pandemic. ??‍♂️??‍♂️

Somebody please create or use the already created DH thread for this discussion

I’m all in on Hendricks, want him so bad. I think these guys do have some credibility but we should be cautious given his agent is Dan Lozano. Could be effing with us the same way he did with machado

Bieber is an outlier! He’s one in a million. You can’t make that argument. Seriously you can’t. It’s ridiculous

Haha Dane dunning cy young now. Unbelievable. His ceiling is SP3. And that’s not hard to replace with the younger pitching arms we have coming up and/or free agency.

Dunning has barely been a top 100 prospect. Relax. If this were Tyler danish 5 years ago the same people would be freaking out

I get being a bit upset seeing a guy like dunning go but It’s mind blowing to hear anybody whine or complain about this deal. You’re getting a proven workhorse, veteran leader with playoff experience. He’s gonna save so many young bullpen arms going 200+ innings. You’re rolling out Giolito Keuchel and Lynn in the playoffs for a team that has done nothing for 16 years. Wtf is there to be so mad about?

We got 5, 6, 7 and hopefully sign 9 soon

Haha I was thinking the same thing. Anderson calling clevinger= clevinger wants to play for sox ??‍♂️??‍♂️

That’s also a very good question

Whether or not you buy anything not cishek says, anybody know what the deleted tweet was?.

I need to hear some positivity by the players. Please give me one tweet.

alright most people hate it, some love it. let's move on to more gossip. Thoughts on his potential coaching staff hires...?

What is awful about trading for the best reliever in all of baseball and a legitimate SP1/SP2 who are controlled for the next 3-4 seasons for two minor leaguers?

I think we see Gio (Don’t need 5th start til mid April) and Fry start out on IL 26 man roster ~13 position players- 9 starters, 4 bench ~13 pitchers- 4 starters, 9 bullpen RHP- Colome, Cishek, Herrera, Marshall, Cordero, Fulmer, Guerrero LHP- Bummer, Mejia or Lindgren for last spot out of need for another lefty let Heuer and Burdi get more AAA innings though both deserving of MLB spot Last spots on roster appear to be between Mejia, Lindgren, Guerrero, Collins thoughts?

Does anyone know if the Sox still play intrasquad games prior to the spring training games? Was able to see it a couple years ago which was a blast but wasn’t sure since first game starts Saturday (would have to be tomorrow). Thanks

Not sure if been mentioned before but some players and families do have good relationships with organizations. It’s not entirely out of the question the LAD wanted to treat Joc right and keep him in or close to LA with his family If they were going to move him.

Per Fangraphs/Roster Resource 2020 Projected Payrolls. White Sox currently at $123 mil. League average at $138.5 mil. Lets get some relievers Ricky

If I were the athletics, I’d sell again. That division is so tough. I’d happily take Piscotty to platoon with mazara. Why don’t we take Khris Davis off their hands. He had a bad year but I’d like to see him DH with us.

Sorry I’d take our current roster over the angels and it’s not even close La Stella Trout Rendon Ohtani Upton Goodwin Simmons Fletcher Stassi Heaney Bundy Ohtani Canning Barria this is absolute GARBAGE!
