What the hell??

If Kuechel is still on the team we need 2.5

It’s beyond Spring training issues. Whatever it is, the White Sox left the pitching as well as second base in the worst possible scenarios. And right field it seemed they had to be quickly thawed out of catatonic carbon freeze

As ridiculous as this situation is, the plan at second base couldn’t lend itself better to your conspiracy theory ? Quite honestly it could be the best remaining option. I hate Jake Burger playing second with the heat of a white hot sun……..So lets do this lol

Most rookies don’t. But if he shows out, hard to send him back down imo when Yoan comes back. Not at this point in his career/age

Welp. So it begins….

Son of a b****…

Bad. But in todays game, he could survive. Moncada did. But this kid would hit homers

Watch him become baby Aaron Judge somewhere else

Other than not being hurt, I don’t think Altuve was any better than Madrigal at the plate when he came into the league. Just saying.

well it’s not just money. Its going to cost prospects too, if the Sox really want to be serious about the season

Not signing Rodon is going to be vastly more expensive than signing him.

So when does Lambert get here?

Mother of God…..

Should have overpaid for Rodon. And I was against it, but assumed the White Sox had their shit together.

Agreed, but thats a low bar. Collins is a woof hitter and always will be

Dark horse, really? Or do I not understand fully what “Dark horse” means… ok, Tucker and Rendon yes. Franco and Robert don’t seem like dark horse candidates.

Yeah, I don't know, but Vaughn is so good and valuable that the Sox can't even find a spot for him. I'd trade him. At the end of the day, he is a first baseman.

in a world where Tim Anderson is available

Still don't gdet how the Sox would ever consider it a savings. Kimbrel's salary, and now even Pollack's are way way higher than Madrigal's salary. Instead of previously blowing up the payroll to the moon, now it's just in orbit

Vaughn goes first. He’s worth more now anyway.

As long as Gas Can Kuechel is in the Sox rotation, personally, schadenfreude in short supply.

Rodon was not left unscathed last season. The injury demon that possesses JR and the White Sox….. Don’t get it started with boundaries it may not respect.

TLR is supposed to be the guru of relief moves. But I think roles were a little bit undefined on this team. I don’t think a lot of guys could predict their appearance keys. And Kopech and Lopez were wildcards. Kimbrel was in no man’s land. And they were gonna do it again with Crochet until a minute ago. Lopez is still undefined other than being undefined again.

No doubt, the Sox have made a decent recovery from a problem they had built. If have Craig Kimbrel on your team can ever be classified as a ‘problem’. Without having to sweeten the deal. Should say what people around the league feel about what Kimbrel has left in the tank.
