Remaining Wish List
I don't want a DH, that can be filled with Collins/Mazara/Grandal. I would really like a legitimate RF and a RP.

Keuchel to Sox, 3 years, 55.55 million; 4th year team option
I wanted nothing to do with Keuchel since well before FA started. The money and years are fine imo, not really seeing a huge overpay. If it was down to Keuchel/Ryu I'm taking Keuchel for this team. You at least know he's going to pitch every 5th day unlike Ryu and we need that. They had to do something for this rotation. He does profile nicely as a LH control pitcher when everyone else is RH power.

White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
250k for reaching 15, 20, 25, 30 starts. That's the 1M in incentives

Cease got destroyed in the 1st and 2nd innings last year and would calm down. If he can stop giving up 4 runs in the 1st inning hell be fine.

Collins is the big one and depending on lineups Mazara and Grandal could slot in as well. I would actually be shocked if Grandal doesn't grab a bunch of ABs at DH.
-
What would it take to get Nolan Arenado?
Probably really close. He can opt out after year 2 though, so I wouldn't be at all interested.
-
White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
EE would be a waste imo. They have plenty of guys to slot in DH.

What does my post have anything to do with not being patient?

Sox acquire Nomar Mazara for Steele Walker
He has a lot more PA's that says he's not. It's not like Texas was sapping his power.

White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
They realistically SHOULD be signing or trading for a decent SP upgrade as well. Lucas ??? Cease Lopez Gio To start with. Then somewhere after a couple months Kopech takes Gio's spot. We also have Rodon. So I'm assuming he is going to be more of a swingman than anything as long as we don't get a bad injury. It makes signing Ryu more bearable if nothing else.
-
White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
He's not a direct replacement for Nova because he's not going to be in the rotation all year.
-
White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
Not really.
-
White Sox sign Gio Gonzalez
Because Kopech is Gio's replacement? It's a 1 year deal.

Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread
I honestly don't want either because Keuchel is not really that good and Ryu is perpetually hurt and for 4/80 that's tough to swallow. With that being said if they miss on either WTF are they legitimately going to do? Yikes

J.A. Happ
Frazier is not very good. He's awful defensively and his bat is not good enough to compensate.
-
J.A. Happ
We have 3 SP, so that means he will surely trigger his vesting option and he was really bad last year and he's really old. King Felix come on down.

Sox and Sawks to see if the Price is Right
Stop trolling. We are cornering the market.

Julio Teheran
He signed after the trade deadline?

Julio Teheran
H-how is Teheran arg-arguably better than Keuchel?

Successful Plan B; What’s Next?
Unless they were actually going for it this year I have no idea why that random tweet makes sense. He doesn't even have a ton of value. He's not some essential cog, especially now.
