I read this as “Hey Dodgers and O’s your offers suck, time to ? or get off the pot”

Someone please help convince me otherwise but looking at both Crochet and Skubal’s baseball savant page, they are a lot closer than some make it seem. I understand that Skubal has more starting experience but I’d argue that Crochet has more value because of the less strain on his arm than Skubal. Crochet is 2 years younger and has the same amount of years on his contract. Crochet looks dominant in his 1st year as a starter. Also in the all star game one thing that stood out to me post Skubal’s inning he said something along the lines of “could I not give up a hard hit”. I feel like Getz should be asking for the same package that the Tigers are looking for Skubal. Again I’m biased but I just feel like in the playoffs Crochet can make a bigger impact than Skubal can come playoff time

Or put a package together that includes Mayo and Kjerstad+++ for Crochet and Robert.

I think it’s more likely they make a bigger splash of Luis Robert and Garret Crochet than trading for Skubal especially if they’re talking about trading Cedric Mullins

I think Getz is gonna ask for more than even the Mariners would be willing to give up. I have always felt that the M’s and Randy Arozarena are the perfect match and he shouldn’t cost as much as Robert would. For me it’s the Phillies or potentially a package deal of Robert and Crochet to the O’s for a massive haul including Coby Mayo and Heston Kjerstad

Just thinking in regards to Crochett and the Orioles as a potential landing spot. Kind of cool that Mike Elias is getting some really advanced scouting with Adley catching all three of Skubal, Crochett, and Mason Miller.

There’s zero shot that Jerry Reinsdorf has any clue who a Spencer Jones is.

Still needs to be either Basallo or Mayo for me, if neither are involved then move on and I’m not giving them Fedde either

Think he meant that as satire because I’m sure Mike Elias isn’t offering Mayo/Basallo because he loves prospect hugging

I’ve been about as pessimistic about promoting from within a bad organization but it’s hard to deny the strides the minor league teams have made. Their farm is most likely going to be top 5 to end the season, which different from last rebuild has much stronger depth especially on the pitching side Once Pedro is out at seasons end, I actually kind of think the Sox are in a good place for the future. I will never allow myself to go full blown “Pray for the League” again but there’s something here. Here’s to hoping the Sox have another strong draft, hopefully they keep Luis Robert and Crochett and use both as foundation pieces but if they decide not to it’s because a team(s) paid a premium which oddly enough I trust Getz to get right.

White Sox could have simply taken De Los Santos in the Rule 5 draft in the offseason, looking at his number think they’re bummed they passed on him?

Rikuu Nishida on the way - minus the power

Wonder what a Jo Adell would cost the Sox, don’t think the Angels would trade him now after the strong year he’s having but while the Sox should be selling, they should be looking to buy also

The more negative attention on Jerry, the better, keep losing ugly baby!

Went to the game today and my god this team is awful, is such a numb feeling going to the games now. It’s wild to me that an owner of not just one but TWO major league sports teams in one of the most passionate sports cities in the world can be so damn tone def, FFS just let someone else make this organization great. The SOB said David Eckstein is his favorite baseball player of all time, god I hate Jerry Reinsdorf.

The worst part about this is we’re gonna wake up tomorrow and Jerry Reinsdorf is still gonna be the owner of this baseball team.

It’s gonna be a White Sox X notification to break the news

Don’t know if posted already

Think it was James and another mentioned 2 of Kjerstad, Cowser, and Westburg.

Which IMO is why Getz won’t make a deal with the O’s now

And it’s not gonna go anywhere, Chris Getz is rightfully holding firm. Unless they’re giving up Basallo or Mayo for Jesus Luzardo, they’ll probably end up with a Shane Bieber or another lesser tiered trade target than Cease.

Nowhere in that article does it say “talks are heating up” with that being said he got a click outta me that I can’t take back now

Orioles will circle back of course and Chris Getz will turn them the other way around. I doubt Getz is gonna budge therefore a deal will not get done and that is perfectly fine with me. Should not settle for any less than Kjerstad and Westburg.

I’m stubborn so yes. That return would piss me off more than him leaving for nothing

Not if he has a solid first half, they’ll do much better than that. Hell look at what the Reds got for Tyler Mahle a year and a half ago at the deadline. They weren’t top 100 guys at the time but now are legit young major league contributors. I get why the Brewers took that deal but it was such an underwhelming return, I’d rather ride out Cease’s contract.
