christ I read this as we were trading kopech lol the adrenaline is crazy

yeah but...why would the cubs want aaron bummer

The sox are penny pinching and acquiring a $16 million closer

holy shit

I need to get lunch. And every effing time I get lunch during a trade period there is a sox trade and I ahve to go read through takes to make sure my take is still original for my fans and it drives me crazy.

lol. I'm hearing

I would trade Crochet basically because I have a hard time believing he ever converts to a starter, and it really doesn't feel like the sox have any plans to do that either. So if he's just a bullpen guy, then...lets go use him for the best bullpen guy.

You wouldn't trade Jared Kelley for anything. What?!

This is a dumb plan for the white sox to rely on, as it was last year. If katz is a genius with bullpen then go prove it with our bullpen pitchers.

One thing I would like to say that appears unpopular is I would trade Crochet for Kimbrel

Thats what @Y2Jimmy0 said on twitter

worked with rodon last year. Foolproof.

This makes me really happy, I was so amused at how they were seemingly trying to be ignored and just being like "SHOHEI HIT ANOTHER HOMER DONT LOOK AT OUR RECORD"

I'm sure that's the case but I just don't think it's a question imo that he's a starting 3b in the league after watching him hit the shit out of the ball and play pretty damn good defense. But he doesn't have the validation of a top 100 ranking.

I agree with this, but also if they don't spend in free agency I'm glad its money spent on an elite player already banked in. It is...bizarre roster allocation, but whatever.

I would be thrilled if we got kimbrel, but I'd be really happy with Fry or Iglesias. Shit, have Hahn do a Jesse Crain deal with the Twins for Rogers. As long as rays are being weird, would love if we could get McHugh, would make me feel so much better for spot starts.

maybe he likes the competition.

yeah...I guess the problem right now is there are a lot of relievers available, the angels are naive, and his price might not be up enough for them to do it.

I honestly don't think Hendriks would care since he is already paid like a closer.

If that gets it done that would be great. Would even still be rooting for burger, and I want him to have a starting job somewhere.

JR approves on contingent that he drives a lockout and cancels 2022 salaries.

Hmm not even trying to be negative but sox don't seem to like being buyers in competitive negotiations. Would put kimbrel super dupes low.

ugh now sandoval is going to hit like 4 home runs this weekend.

Interesting thread from JJ Cooper, I admit, I am completely flummoxed by prospects this year, including our own. I guess it didn't thread.

they also say it like it is the only example of a baseball team in the history of the world.
