Guessing Smith, Martin, Kay, Burke, Newcomb. Certainly not written in stone however. Newcomb contract says he gets a shot to start.

Marshmallow Fluff on peanutbutter sandwich = Fluffernutter !!

You were hitting the nail on the head...Until you said it looks like the trade is dead. Just my contribution to White Sox trade Rap and not a critique of you B. 🙂

That what my post said 2 PTBNL from the Red Sox. I was just saying Feagan didnt include it in his tweet but others did.

Feagan had a tweet and listed the W. Sox giving up a PTBNL but not the 2 PTBNL from the Red Sox.

There were 2 different ways to perceive it since he just said Sox. In a trade involving both Sox teams a professional needs to be more clear.

Or didnt differentiate between the color Sox that saved the $16M which was the Red Sox.

Got good stuff . BP type arm .Needs to throw more strikes. Someone who could be coached up . Sandlin starting pitching candidate, also good stuff. Likely will get coached up at AAA to start the season.

One of the tweets in the thread.

If Hicks is going to be in. the pen then Sox pitching coaches have to get him throwing strikes at mimimum.

Bob being Boob again getting the money wrong.

Didnt Nightengale get the momey part wrong ? Saving $8M not $16M Bob thinking Boston paying $8M per year not the reported $4M per year.

Do you think its possible Sandlin goes on the 60 day DL or are we just talking about guys like Thorpe, Mason Adams, Berroa & Bush ?

Rumor is Sandlin didnt pass the medical portion of the trade according to @Baron sauce before but apparently has now since it's been completed ? Something is weird or sauce was partially right & wrong.

I think pitchers the Sox acquire who have under performed fits into a range of things the Sox feel they can work with.

Ok guesses has to how much Boston ate of the $25M ? Half sounds about right Maybe $10-12.5M.

Having 1:1 will change that dynamic. Won 't chart his game to game progress though. Maybe once a month when people get excited when he 's on a tear. I hardly ever ( never say never) kick prospects when they are down.

Colson and MM are potentially devastating power duo in the middle of the lineup. How they do is how the season will go. Outstanding performances provide the runway of opportunity to guys like Acuna and Baldwin . Just like last year they need to have a lot go right to keep inching their way to respectabilty with a disrespectful player payroll.

Agree thanks for sharing !!

White Sox Fever.. Catch It ! I feel some Tra La's approaching.

Oh I understand opinions vary. If the Sox lose 100 again that dominate the off sesson again . Letting all the kids have a runway sometime wont help tbem win so it bevomed well you wanted the kids to play. Even as good as the kids played last year adding vets in the OF and BP fosters more winning. You dont want the kids getting too discouraged .

Was there really a "crowd" ? Tauchman, Taylor, Slater last year plus Getz said he was looking for it.

"Austin Hays Signs with Sox" title perhaps? I know its pinned but it looks like just another speculation thread by the title. Thank you. I realize a shortened title gives an advantage for getting it out there 1st 🙂

Acuna can do that too or Meidroth on the Infield eventually . If we want to provide a runway for power and speed potential the OF is the place to do it . The INF is stacked and we haven't even seen Carlson or if Cholowski ends up being #1. Baldwin could end up in LF and be a decent OF with reps and Braden in RF eventually. Beginning of August with Vargas injured Brooks played a lot of 3B. With Robert injured in Sept. he played a lot of CF some RF & LF and he had an .828 OPS and .784 in July.

I just heard Getz talking up the CF guys. I don't know if the order he mentioned them means anything. However it was Acuna 1st, Hill, Peirara and then Baldwin. He also talked about being active in the FA OF market and trade talks. That was on CHSN with David Haugh ,Garfien and other guy. Edit again It wasnt in that podcast it was on Sox Machine yesterday at right around the 7:45 minute mark. I did get the order right that he mentioned them. Ill listen to it again maybe edit this post and put the youtube video in here.
