Betts to Dodgers
I made the same point about Maeda. He is a steal for the Twins with his contract & talent.

Let's talk about the spring training hat
Kyle's hat is awesome, come on. Simpler is better. 49ers gear is always top notch. It's Kyle going flat brim that gives it a sort of.....douchey look?

Is Mookie Betts a real option for the Sox with payroll history??
I agree with all of what you said, especially evaluating Mazara at the end of the season. But, with wishful thinking, his age, potential, & new home/great clubhouse (plus not being in the heart of the order) Mazara could & will rise above expectations. The bar on him has been set low because of his past performances & fan opinion. Let's see how it goes, Mazara could be a plus to this team.

What do you expect from Eloy in 2020?
That's awesome for you, have a blast! You're still going to see Eloy pinch hit in the sixth & jack one to take a 4-3 lead. Of course scoring Yoan & giving Lucas the W for the all star game. Has anyone else tried this koolaid? It's so tasty.

All that but no home run derby. Focus on the season!

MLB cheating scandal
Great work by this guy. This season will have as many answers as questions coming.

Just Because The Twins signed Donaldson.......
Let's face it, it was a great pickup for the Twins but the White Sox added some very good pieces as well. I think the plan is working. This was a decent offseason & next offseason should be more of the same.

SoxFest
I made that Yolmer prediction on another post here. I think it would be very cool to happen, but on a low risk deal. I was at Sox Fest in 2013 & it was a blast. Have fun to those that are attending.

Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread
Yolmer signed to a minor league contract with 5 million if he makes the team out of spring training. News & Yolmer break at Sox Fest. Crowd goes wild! He does not make the team. Fade to black.

COVEY DFA-ed - Signed by TB

FS: White Sox announce 2020 player development staff
Great to hear but years behind. I never understood why a team wouldn't pay more money to good coaches, analytics people to build a better infrastructure for the organization.

Reminiscing about 2005 Sox team and record that will never be broken
I read the same articles this morning & felt the same way. Thank you for the breakdown of that magical playoff season. One of the best memories of that season was being at game five in Anahime. Yes, the game was fantastic, but after the team came out on the field to celebrate with the few White Sox fans in attendance. The guys were drinking & smoking cigars while we cheered them. Then, Paulie put up four fingers & said " four more" & we all went nuts! Unbelievable day to be a White Sox fan!

New Chisox Motto
How about "Running Up That Hill", Kate Bush/Placebo song? The line "and get him to swap our places" would be played when we play the Yankees.

Year in Review (2019 Soxtalk)
“I’m just jazzed about being on the show, man” Guy Fleegman, Galaxy Quest. Seriously, I’m really happy I found this site a week ago. The posts have been great during this incredible offseason & I hope to contribute to the banter. Have a great 2020 as we all hope the Sox do too!

Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread
We should jump on this. Depth with potential high ceiling.

Can the 20s be the best decade in Sox history?
I also dream of Moncada, Robert, Eloy, Timmy, Lucas, Kopeck & Yasmani being like the Big Red Machine & those Dodgers you mentioned. With luck & health, the pitching staff could, I said could, be something a couple rungs below the 90s Braves. Remember, I started this that I said it was my dream. Dream of greatness!!!!

Farewell, Ryan Cordell

White Sox Sign Robert to Extension
Let's fucking go is right!!!! The Sox are serious about this!!!! Bust out of the gates boys, this team is good!!!!
-
How good do YOU think we can be next season?
Nice work. I think that with the great offseason, we may things hang in the balance of the unknown. Injuries, regression from the core, off years from vets. It can also swing positively, which we all hope for. The depth needs to be built stronger. Take a flier on a couple starting pitchers like Walker or Felix if the money is right. Complement Mazara with another piece & see where we are at the drade deadline while not giving away too many good prospects. Happy New Year Sox Fans!!!!

Here’s A Laugh
