    I think we are all forgetting how the team likes to have flexibility with the lineup. Castellanos brings that, he can serve as your typical full time DH play or when Ricky gets the hair to play both catchers at the same time you can move him to the OF without having Leury or Engle having to play that much. You wouldn’t have a gaping hole in your lineup with a bench player day in and day out

     

    Can he still play 3B too? That's more flexibility as well. I'm all for signing Castellanos. This lineup looks so much more formidable with him included.

    Are people seriously running with that WSD post?

    If Keuchel had agreed to sign/were signing with the White Sox, we'd know already. I'd love to have either him or Ryu, but I wouldn't get my hopes up on anything until you see an official press release, otherwise you're unnecessarily setting yourself up once again for another disappointment potentially.

    This is someone I could envision the White Sox targeting. I would not mind taking a flyer on Yoenis to split time between RF/DH:

     
    One interesting effect of Yoenis Céspedes' contract restructuring: the Mets have had teams reach out the past week regarding his availability in trades, according to a source. Nothing close or imminent or even all that likely, but some initial conversations have taken place.

    Sox and Sawks to see if the Price is Right

    Again with attacking the organization for the one thing theyve actually been good at recently - high profile trades.

    Just because they've excelled there in the past, doesn't mean they still won't make a shitty one out of desperation.

    If the White Sox want Boston to eat significantly more of that contract, they will need to include prospects. The Sox have coveted Benintendi since before the Sale trade also. It's not too hard to connect the dots. What Gammons is proposing is ludicrous. However, the White Sox making such a deal, would not surprise me in the least. Probably not both, but I could see them being short-sighted enough to include at least one.

    Let's look at the track records and see which is more likey:

    A) Peter Gammons, who has always had great ties with Boston, is simply mistaken

    B) The White Sox front office, which has made one questionable decision after another, who have also shown an ineptitude in evaluating their own prospects, are seriously considering this.

    Yeah, as this offseason goes on it looks more and more like the organization is content on making a run at it in 2021 instead of 2020. At least, that's the optimistic way of looking at it. The pessimistic way of looking at it is that this organization is incompetent. 

     

    I think you mean "logical."

    Bumgarner and AZ nearing 5 yr deal per Passan

    This is a ridiculous statement with no backing or evidence.

    It's a safe bet considering what AZ's offer was and Bumgarner's own preference to stay in the NL and West Coast. If he were to sign with the White Sox, they would have had to overpay. It's just the state of doing business with a team that hasn't been to the playoffs in over a decade.
