I am just going to s%*# on this because of the process. 1. Again, the idea we had to get rid of Roberts' salary to clear the way to sign a reliever for ten million dollars a year is absurd. 2. Why are we embracing flip candidates? I will get excited when we actually start building a sustainable roster with good players, rather than just signing them to reasonable deals only to trade them away to contending teams. 3. I stil believe that Robert is undervalued here. The truth is find centerfielders who are gold glovers, steal 40 bases and hit 20 home runs a year is very rare. I understand that he will only play 120 games. However, that's his floor. That's not a bad floor for a team that has very few good players on it. 4. I really liked watching Luis. He was exciting to watch. I will miss him and hope he reaches his potential with the Mets.

For the life of me, the money they saved by trading away Robert. We have all minimum wage dudes on this roster.

I think sometimes the writers get mixed up in the results for pitchers rather than stuff.

When you are a bad team, you take your swings on upside. So very few centerfielders can hit. Its a name that you know. And honestly, he seems like a good dude. Just can't produce or stay healthy consistently.

I love Baldwins big daddy cuts. Doesn’t get cheated.

Just want to say I love watching Luis Robert Jr. He is just a fun player. And the white sox are finally having other players who are fun. From just a watching standpoint, he helps me watch a white sox game. They still suck but its more of a fun suck. f*** you Jerry.

Judging from the Mullins return, lets just hold onto him. We have zero payroll going into next year. If he bounces back to a plus 800 hitter, he will be worth so much more. I know thats a big IF, but the alternative is the Cedric Mullins return which is blah anyways.

I hope Colson will be our McKenzie Gore. At some point, Gore was a can't-miss prospect. Then he went through a few years where he had trouble throwing in the strike zone. Even after his call-up, he was not exactly dominant. A bunch of publications soured on his likelihood of being a successful starter. However, he was given time to adjust and now is pitching like many thought he would at the beginning of his minor league career. I know pitchers are different than position players. However, I think this is a good example of why rushing guys to the big leagues with a small amount of success is rarely a good thing. At some point, there is development that needs to happen, and better in the minor leagues than in the big leagues. I think this is what killed Andrew Vaughn. He had a small amount of minor-league success but the White Sox were such in a rush to get him here, he never truly developed.

Burke loooks really good! Lets trad'em....

This is fine. We have a stockpile of quality pitching.

Question is would Getz get more now if he waited on Crochet?

Kind of says we gave Christian Mena away for nothing. But, I am happy for the salary relief.

So are we thinking Sloan?

So who are we liking that could be steal in the next couple of picks. Does anybody know who they have been linked too? Does anybody think they saved a couple hundred thousand by making a deal with Smtih? Sorry, I am not an expert so just curious on who you guys think would be the next move.

I don't mind Cags. I think 5-10 years ago getting a bat first, first basemen seemed like a waste as there would always be good 1B. However, If he can hit then lets take him because nobody hits now. A good hitting first baseman is no longer the norm on teams anymore. Its not like the White Sox have an abundance of them because if they did we sure s%*# wouldn't be trotting out Sheets and Vaughn for 1000 at bats a year. Basically, If you think he will hit the bombs then take him. I would rather have that then a defensive SS that is going to have .680 OPS.
