Great, so now by your own standards you can never be right.

If it were me, I would probably sit on the cash until the team is a bit more filled in. Whoever you bring in is still going to suffer through years of losing, and I am not sure you want that.

I don't, which is why I don't think this team will be good at anytime in the rest of this decade. I do not see nearly enough offensive talent, nor a compelling reason to add to this team in any meaningful way in free agency.

I really hope he is the next dude in the booth, and hopefully really soon.

He started doing that when he would get sick of Hawk and hasn't really stopped since.

Looked like Sosa hit that off of the bounce.

Look, this team is going to be bad for the near to mid future, at the very least. If you don't have the time now to develop young kids, you never will. You also need faith in your dev team to draft guys like this.

Eh, you do have to have SOME talent. We have been churning some TRASH through our system.

Let's be honest, they pretty much need everything, except maybe Catcher.

The last time in my life I put less effort and time into the White Sox was after 1994.

And they also have a history of developing pitching, both from inside and outside of the organization. With hitting, they have nothing.

It feels like this group might be working in their redirection techniques with all of the contradictory rumors floating around. I don't remember there being any talk of Hagen last year, and then poof there he was. Be interesting to see who ISN'T being talked about that would fit their needs best.

And there is the move of the goalposts. I know you want to take your little victory lap here, but if you want to disqualify news reports on this topic, you can't take your lap either because now you also have no proof at what these players relative values were over the winter.

It's not a rumor, it's a news report. Hopefully you understand the difference.

Nastrini they sent out, but Capra they DFAd. So weird.

You are trying to take a victory lap by pretending that everything you don't like isn't true, all so you can come back and try claim a win. We have that reporting, whether it hurts your feelings or not.

Ok, this is hilarious.

They aren't going to say anything publicly until a deal is done. Good businessmen don't negotiate in public.

Considering we know the Reds offered Arroyo and another top 5 prospect if the Sox picked up salary in the off season, you were wrong.

Final score: game called

Both teams will lose this trade by all likelihood. It's trash for trash.

They didn't start for years, so no, they weren't.

While rushed to the majors, neither Sale nor Crochet were close to ready to be major league starters
