Just the hate TA got from people for saying he was glad it was over, and some tweets on that reply undercutting Yolmer. Don’t have any problem people criticizing org on replies to white Sox tweets, but I mean it’s not Sox players jobs to try and suppress salaries for the front office sucking.

I don’t really like some of what I’ve seen on fans just turning on current players that haven’t done anything wrong.

And Adley with one.

He was 38 years old!

You are always going to have some vets on minor league deals trying out for spring training.

Yo was David Wells mentioned yet?

Yeah and bo had the home run. I take mine back.

This is correct.

40 million over 10 years is not 2 marwins. It's 10 Jon Jays (i originally got his contract wrong.

(bo jackson)

By contrast, I may have gotten math wrong, minnesota twins signed marwin gonzalez, nelson cruz, cj cron, jonathan schoop martin perez and blake parker for 43 million. I would guarantee they get more production out of that group.

I think even contracts like miguel cabreras are illustrative because the argument against them is that its paying for past performance. At age 33 they are giving him an aav of 31 million

Out of curiosity if you all could sign JD Martinez at age 26 on the fa market knowing what his next 5 years would be what would you think is fair?

adam jones will just add to the list of "professional friends" that was apparently the purpose of our entire offseason.

Yes I was.

I am not sure what team ended up with jon jay's production so possible lf is actually positive.

??? I really wish sox fans graded their own players as skeptically as anyone not on the team.

3rd. He had a .760 ops year as a 26 year old.

Would you rather pay 10.5 million for a 30 year old player that plays 7 positions and has a .320 career obp and fluctuating power or 9 million for a first baseman that only had an ops 5 points higher than the other guy? Tough calls.

31 year olds with a 5 for 150 deal left in 5 years...won't be hard to shed. Big contracts suck when they have a decently valuable asset and you need to get a return back to jump start a rebuild if your only purpose is to shed money, you can shed money. Your scenario they just need to shed money.

padres zips for starting rotation - 7.4 white sox zips for starting rotation - 5.4

then they can just trade them.

I know it will play terribly, but I'm guessing it was just them supporting his decision. I gotta tell you, if my friend was about to make a lucrative move to like CEO and was possibly for my company, I'm not going to trash whatever he's looking at. Their decision is more important than my preferance. But I get it looks bad.

chisox committed to not driving up costs for any free agents so when cba comes around they can shame all the rest.
