If Vaughn keeps on this bender he could well play himself on to the trade market. I am skeptical though.

I think at a minimum they get a warm body. I do think it will look something like the Middleton return.

This is why.

Seriously Soroka is a free agent in 3 months. He is 100% going somewhere. I have feelings on the rest, but MS is gone.

Yeah I don't think the Sox do a deal for Crochet without getting a top 10 position player back to start. They have to start with one of Holliday/Basallo/Mayo, and then probably 2 more in their 5-10 range, like Norby and Beavers, and something else to finish it off. If Robert is in the deal, you need to add another guy at that top level, another guy in the 5-10, plus some other lower range guy. Maybe the middle range guys are more negotiable for some volume in the back end to help Baltimore fix their coming 40 man crunch, but I don't see the Sox being willing to take a discount on Robert + Crochet when they could spin them both to single teams for a higher price.

I need a crying reaction for this one.

Even the F@#$ing Marlins DFAd a guy in similar straights in Avi.

He's got 70-80 power. If he can play a position and hit .220, he can be an every day major leaguer. If he can hit .260 he's an all star.

The Padres will be attaching him to Cease to get someone to take Tatis in no time.

Not if Captain Panic keeps yo-yoing him.

The Red Sox are 47-39, so 23 games.

The Pirates are 42-45 and have the 11th worst record in baseball as of now. The White Sox are 26-64. The Sox would have to make up 17.5 games in 74 games worth of time to move to 11th. We good.

Today is July 5th. Today was the first time in 2024 the White Sox won the 1st game of a road series.

There is a special place for guys who sign giant FA contracts, absolutely suck as a pitcher, and the complain they aren't getting run support when giving up six runs.

For the second time today, Jamie Navarro.

There's a lot of teams who could use Banks in middle relief.

He also hasn't been over 150 innings since 2019. What has Cease done?

And a perfect embodiment of why Chris Getz isn't a major league GM.

I was wondering how the predictable demise of the Os rotation was going, and if they would actually show some stones this this around?

Oh, so you moved the goal posts because I was right.

He has to know that by now.

Thorpe has given up 3 hits to the last 44 BF.

You know how the Hawks got Bedard? They dumped all of their good players when they got expensive and near the end of their deals. Yes, they tanked.

It's not his position, it's the owners.
