I responded to a post you made. Then you decided to be a dick with your lecture comment.

Great well I also know how to read and don't need a lecture of how bullshit works. People will have zero proof one way or another that they have been inoculated. Congrats I have declared myself immune because I don't believe in it. If someone asks me if I was vaccinated. Sure I was. Now prove to the world that I wasn't without me having to show something that says I did. I cant wait for the anti-mask freedom lovers to show up with their vaccine ID card or their app. This is going to go over well. My family is going to get this as soon as possible. I dont know if that is going to be the case across the population.

Great I get exposed to the virus on Sunday. I get tested on Thursday the game is on the following Sunday. I test negative. Guess who can still have the virus and can get sick the next week. This guy. The reason the quarantine rates long as they are is because this thing doesn't pop up right away. I have had people at my work get exposed and quarantine test negative and the next week they get sick and test positive.

Another question. Kids under the age of 16 are currently are not recommended for the vaccine. So no kids at the baseball games? That should go over well. Adoption of this vaccine is going to be a shitshow. You will have a segment of society getting it as quickly as possible. You will have another that will never get it due to conspiracy theories of Bill Gates putting chips in you, mark of the beast, stupid shit. You will have another group of anti-vaxxers who will never get it. You have people who think this is the flu and dont get their flu shot. So its going to be a while for adoption at a rate that is going to make sense. If the MLB is waiting till this is really out there so they can bank on full stadiums. Think 2022 before the government is going to think that we are at a good enough vaccination rate to do that.

This was a team that beat up on crap teams and didn't win a lot against the better teams. What was our record against Clev and Minny again. Suddenly we pick up Lynn and Eaton and we are world beaters? This is the biggest con job if that's the case. If we had signed Bauer and/or Springer and added Hendricks sure the math says we improved quite a bit. But as we are maybe we are in it at the end competing for the AL central our pitching however is not world series ready by any means.

Well if they dont get one this offseason he might be turned into one.

We are in our competitive window. We can add a closer and still work on these fixer upper projects in the background. Have Burdi "close" out the 6th or 7th inning. I don't want fixer uppers or try and buys during this window.

Which will involved moving players that could be used to solve other problems instead of fixing something that will not cost a lot of money in the big picture. Just sign a closer now and be done with it. Waiting till the deadline means we will have to use prospects, which could be used to get something else at the deadline. Using the deadline as a way to fill out your roster is stupid.

Glad to see the grandkids are showing you how the internet works Hawk. I hope retirement is working out well. Did you go to full mast when we signed Eaton.

If he is healthy. That's the problem. This guys has logged enough 60 day DL time to say that this is not a guarantee.

These guys traded for Mazara and put him in as the starting RF after a lionshare of evidence saying that he isn't good. Their qualification for RF seems to be human being, left handed, OF.

I expect him to be on the 60 day DL by June 1st. Ageless wonder.

Sorry the piggy bank was just open enough for a short time. Maybe a closer and an maybe a #4 or $5. Darvish cost to much. Scrooge needs to keep his money.

Back in the day when a guy like Eaton was signed they picked someone up like this because they were a "grinder". The people who loved grinders are still employed by the sox. This has been their reaction in the past when they believe a team is "soft".

So where is the part that they were banging on the garbage can to help the Astro pitchers? Keuchel probably had some decent run support due to it, but its not like it helped him with his pitching.

For what its worth. This offseasons "insiders" have had a much better hit rate then Hector did during the Machado offseason.

Well this place looks to have some deals. Jerry never steers me wrong. Wow look at that a RF with a known name is only 7M dollars. That other guy banged on drums and wants 25m. Look at this pitcher, I exchanged the one we got in our previous swap for only 8 million. That other guy flies drones and sounds crazy and wants 30 million. Oooh look in the back, they have fixer upper pitchers for half off. Wow this place is great.

Live look into the White Sox front office and their big board of free agent shopping.

The WS MO for years. Why get one really good superstar when you can get a bunch of third tier lightning in a bottle types. More players are better than superstars.

Rick please blink twice if you are under duress. Blink three times if JR or TLR are right behind you.

This is like saying I love the best of restaurants meanwhile your budget says the white castle single is technically from a cow so its filet mignon just like the finest of steak houses.

What is the cheapest option for the least amount of years. Thats our choice. We are all in for 2021, not so much for 2022.

If this is "All In" then good luck
