The scouting report that WE posted said he can basically only hit fastballs, meaning he will never see one in the majors. Which makes sense considering his 35% strikeout rate. Plus, he’s already 27 so it’s unlikely he’s just going to figure it out all of a sudden. This guy is a turd.

I doubt this guy needs to be snuck anywhere.

How does a 35% strikeout rate in the minors translate to the majors? I don’t know but I’m sure it will be fun to find out. 🤣

Also 148 strikeouts in those 89 games and 417 plate appearances. Guy is a freaking wind tunnel.

Yes, I know. I am saying the Sox should have swung a deal for him first. The Mets only gave up cash.

And the posters who told me that Getz and the Sox didn’t like Canario cuz he strikes out too much so his bat likely wouldn’t play in the majors. Check out Jones’ strikeout rate. 🤣

He was DFA by the Cubs already. We could have cut Colas for him back then instead of waiting to dump him for this loser.

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.
