If Sanchez isn't good enough to play for the Sox down 3 middle infielders, who else is going to want him? Just asking questions.

He is a free agent. There is no claiming him. He has to agree to terms with a team now.

Even after Cueto's statement he said there wasn't a problem.

Technically all of baseball would have had a shot at him both at the trading deadline, and when he was on waivers unclaimed with the remainder of his $14+m contract for this year, and the vesting option left out there as well. NO one wanted him with either option. Now teams can sign him for the minimum, and my guess is he will look for the best playing opportunity, which is probably the Sox for now.

Yolbert? The guy with a .642 OPS in Charlotte and .600 in August? Pass I will guess you are talking about Jose Rodriguez? He's super young for his level already, and isn't thought of as a top prospect that would typically get skipping AAA type of treatment, if I had to guess.

More like in his underwear.

Like who?

What other SS is there? Sosa is here, and if you don't want Romy, who is left? Anderson, Leury, and Mendick are all on the injured list.

So Tony didn't believe or realize there was a problem, yet called a meeting about it, even though he didn't agree with it. Also Chicago media didn't see fit to apparently ask any of the obvious follow up questions that this statement should have generated. What the actual fuck.

For the record, this means our top 3 SS's are on IL right now.

He was released. His old contract is invalid.

It would be minimum wage for a month and a half.

Let's be frank. If Andrus was competent, there would have been a line out the door for him at the deadline.

Well hopefully Romy is back to his 2021 self.

I mean you take the playoffs every single time. Post season play is precious. Who knows if it happens again any time soon and you miss your final chance.

I completely forgot about Stiever.

It should absolutely be a no brainer, but since when has that been how we have done business?

Which means he should be signing with the Padres any day now.

The fact he was released.

I might have some quibbles, but this list is way better than most of the published lists.

Average? No way. The middle infield is to valuable for an average guy to be laying around doing nothing. There aren't enough average IF's to go around. There are a few field/no hit types laying around as others have mentioned.
