So Getz didn’t want Canario cuz he strikes out too much. Meanwhile, Jones looks like the Tasmanian Devil swinging a bat compared to Canario. Awful. Getz continues to be absolutely clueless.

Only if you would have been the GM.

Taylor makes sense since he can cover CF. Slater fills the same role as Canario — righty corner outfielder that hits lefties.

I have no doubt Hahn would’ve nabbed Canario the first time he was DFA. Let’s see if Getz wises up this time. It’s not like the Sox have a glut of OF prospects, but we sure have a lot of crusty veterans…

Cubs needed a roster spot when they signed Justin Turner. Still considered a questionable move.

It would have to be someone on the 40-man roster so Jankowski wouldn’t apply as he’s just a NRI. I also doubt Getz would want to cut any of Taylor, Tauchman, and Slater because he spend around $6 million combined on them — chump change for real teams but too much to cut for the Sox. But one of Colas or Fletcher would make sense, and I think we know which of the two the Sox don’t seem to care much for anymore. At least Fletcher can play some defense in all three outfield spots if needed.

Yes, although a few frequent posters ardently disagreed with me because he simply isn’t good enough for the Sox roster and we already have Tauchman (34) and Slater (32) that do squat for this team. This kid is a full decade younger than our primary starting RF. 🤣 Would be hilarious if it actually happens now. Your point stands — even if Canario sucks, “you literally have nothing to lose.”

Per the MLB Trade Rumors comments section (shady ass source, I know)… https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/03/mets-likely-to-remove-alexander-canario-from-40-man-roster.html “Alan53 March 25, 2025 Chicago media are saying the White Sox are set to get him.“ “Attystephenadams March 25, 2025 There’s a reason why the Mets picked him up for just cash from the Cubs. Most likely he’ll just be a waiver claim by the White Sox. The Mets would be most fortunate to get a low level prospect for him in a trade.”

BOOM…

I think there may be better DFAs coming. I guess we’ll probably find out tomorrow.

True, but just imagine paying for it.

It took him forever to get there. And still, he only put up a career 7.7 bWAR. Meanwhile, the Tigers got a Hall of Famer who put up 67.2 bWAR in his career. None of the other prospects the Tigers gave up did anything. Amazing trade for DD.

We’d have to release most of the lineup.

You get Owen White. Even better.

You sure about that? I’m not.

Yep, overpay Giddey and the Bulls still can’t afford to keep them all. Not sure if Tray realizes this.

It’s not a good return if the top prospects don’t pan out. Knowing which prospects to give up is also the key to being a good GM.

The Miguel Cabrera trade was still a fleecing. Getz wakes up in a cold sweat wishing he could make a trade like this. Then he struggles to fall back asleep all depressed thinking about his Cease and Santos trades. December 4, 2007: Miguel Cabrera traded by the Florida Marlins with Dontrelle Willis to the Detroit Tigers for Dallas Trahern (minors), Burke Badenhop, Frankie De La Cruz, Cameron Maybin, Andrew Miller, and Mike Rabelo.

Dane Dunning cleared waivers and was outrighted to AAA.

Scott Merkin is too busy writing puff pieces to update the roster pages. 🤣 PS — I realize Merkin doesn’t update the site.

Definitely. Younger and while they’ll both hit .220, Moniak can at least run into one every now and then.

Would’ve been nice. Will be interesting to see what he eventually signs for. Ultimately, I think he will probably be out of the Sox range of around $5 million. Texas gave him $13 million for last season and he had a good year. I know he’s old as dirt but he keeps putting up good seasons so I doubt he takes that much of a pay cut.
