yeah I still think calling the yankees will be a good idea. The FA market for them doesn't look great, and they need to replace quite a bit. I think they'd love a guy they know will perform with the lights on.

I don't really see 2b as a big priority but if you did, I think Vera hits a sweet spot. He still has a few years to build up his arm, and because of when he signed is still a 2 years from protection I believe?

Basically replace josh bell with gavin sheets.

Ah, I thought that was later. Yes, okay then I definitely think Josh from Soxmachine is just indicating he thinks sox should do what they can to get lowe by this roster crunch.

Actually I'm not sure why the QO deadline should affect Lowe situation so maybe I'm wrong.

I read his tweet as "the white sox should be doing everything possible to get Brandon Lowe since the roster deadline is 11/15" not "the white sox are going to get brandon lowe by tomorrow" in that way

I kinda hope they win some games to fall behind bears in draft. They are either a QB trade up candidate or a massive trade down candidate. Either way, you'd want them behind Bears to have the opportunities for either. I thought McDaniels would work the second time around. I'm amazed how bad it is. That offense has the skill positions to be top 5 in NFL. It's amazing.

Seems like such a bad idea.

I think people at $10M are hedging that risk enough. He'll likely get $15-16 just judging by some recent deals. I wouldn't touch him with ten foot pole.

I think this cuts across a few of Hahn's tendencies...plausible. I would probably guess more than Vaughn goes out, and that people would be revolted by the return but it does save the Pads around $17M so I thought it was plausible. I did not tender Eaton. Team: C - Grandal, Zavala, Perez INF - Bell, Moncada, Anderson, Amaya, Mendick, Sosa, Romy, Leury OF - Robert, Grisham, Colas, Outman DH - Eloy, Sheets SP - Cease, Lynn, Snell, Kopech, Lopez/Martin BP - Hendriks, Graveman, Bummer, Crochet, Kelly, Diekman, Lambert Add $3-4 M for that random vet SP we'll sign. Positive accomplishments: - Increase in left handed power - Increase in defensive flexibility - Moves Eloy to DH - Maintains Bullpen depth Negatives: - SP will almost certainly bring you much less production than last year - Loss of huge amounts of offensive production from Vaughn/Abreu Overall, you'd assume to target this group at 81 wins again unless Moncada/Anderson/Robert/Grandal get their s%*# together. I kept Montgomery, etc for the most part. So a deadline deal is possible for starter if team is looking good.

I doubt it was one incident given how Cleveland reacted. Probably just one incident we knew about.

2020 Cleveland basically gave him away because they were furious he went out with Plesac in Chicago, where plesac got covid, lied about it, went on plane with everyone, then got caught lying about all of it. Apparently the whole locker room turned on him and led to the trade. Nut bag might not have been best insult but yes maybe not the best person to add to the miserable mix that is our locker room.

Josh mcdaniels doesn’t get near enough s%*# for the disaster that the raiders are this year.

What a bs move from verstappen.

Let’s add all the nut bags

Apparently the refs contention is that wasn’t also pass interference?

What a bullshit game

LMAO ? that’s so good and pathetic.

Aww poor guy.

Oh interesting so he worked his way up to being an executive in one of the most successful orgs in the league before taking over a GM role and overseeing them make an ALCS, 2 WS births and a WS 5 years after their original? Let’s pump the brakes thinking he’s good.

Where was click before Houston…anywhere good?

The Astros had a lower payroll than the white Sox this year.

This is a bummer, I wonder who RG, if it’s schofield or Leatherwood

I would buy a 60 game package if this happened

We're going to talk past each other just because of all the places to put my energy on stuff the sox have done, grandal is low. From an optimal team building standpoint, to me he's a shiny hood ornament when a team is already put together, not a foundational piece. He provided great MLB offense from the catcher position, not great offense for a catcher, great offense. Should have buoyed the sox even more if they could ever have competency from DH (now eloy was, in 2nd half). Everything else from sox regarding C development has been abysmal. One of the reasons I'm so bullish on carlos perez is the sox are so bad at scouting their own players it's very likely he is a hall of famer.
