Yeah I'm with ya Balta, I would have waited.

I will explain why I like the Burnes deal more than this one: 1. I am very leery of soft tossing RHP 2. Hall and Ortiz are going to reach the majors, they don't need more development. 3. I feel like you could get a similar prospect to Zavala with the 34th pick in the draft Hall has more upside than either of the pitchers they got in this deal, even if a bit older.

Yeah, I was just going to say that I wouldn't even entertain trading Robert until July 2026 because the level of prospect hugging going on by MLB teams right now is insane.

Um, I'd take the Burnes deal over this. I like Hall better than Thorpe, even if he's older.

Well, I guess I spoke too soon about being wrong

Taking the massive L here. Throw your tomatoes at ya girl. Glad to have been wrong.

Yeah and then trade him in July

Hey we're all White Sox fans here. We all want the team to win.

I hope it's the haul y'all were thinking they'd get. Would love to be wrong here

Accurate. It's 0.5 less than twice as much because Burnes is better than Cease.

The Burnes package was better than the rumored Texas package.

I have no idea why they're targeting pitching. They need more help in the position player dept.

I would absolutely love to be wrong on this.

He realizes he's a dead man walking and will not try to save his job.

Anyone else disappointed in Montgomery's showing at ST? Certainly didn't look like a top 10 prospect in the game.

They have to get rid of the pitch clock. I'd imagine the MLBPA will consider it a non-starter in the next round of negotiations.

Whyyy is Sheets still playing RF? The stupidity knows no bounds.

Don't get me wrong, I think it would be really cool if the Sox got a stadium in the 78, but I just think that no public money should go to it.

Yeah I think he was going to be their starting SS this year

When is it ok to get pissed about the Mena/Fletcher deal?

Not really. They're just BABIPing Yamamoto to death.
