I will say, the 2021 FA options at 2B are pretty terrible, so maybe we are looking at Cesar next season too.

What matters more, for the 2021 season that we're trying to win: what happened in the last 3 years, or what is ACTUALLY happening this season? Will Kimbrel fail to get a guy out in a post season game this year, because of a bad HR/9 rate in 2019?

If the rest of the lineup can get their heads out of their collective asses, you can take Seby catching with no bat. But our current catching situation, coupled with the hitting woes, makes it a glaring weakness.

For sure. How many relievers stay elite for a lengthy period of time? More the exception, than the norm. Yeah, we sold low on Cody, but bullpen arms go that way.

So you only care about the part that fits your argument. Gotcha.

What about the years before that? Arbitrary timeframes work both ways.- Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
Love it. Did folks expect to get Kimbrel, for High A fodder? Dude is electric this year again. AND, we get the opportunity to get a second baseman with an actual arm/glove.- Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
? In that case, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this move.- Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
I'm fine with Crochet being traded.- Hernandez & Tepera Activated; Burr & Mendick Optioned
Yeah, I wouldn't be sending down ReyLo, over a few other folks still on the roster. Burr was the right move, he has struggled lately.- 7/29/21 White Sox @ Royals @1:10
I've cut the game off, 1.5 innings in. Sad.- 7/29/21 White Sox @ Royals @1:10
By all means, keep throwing fastballs to a guy who crushes HRs vL. Seems to be logical to me.- 7/29/21 White Sox @ Royals @1:10
Mendick with that massive arm! Hah.- 7/29/21 White Sox @ Royals @1:10
- Cesar Hernandez traded to White Sox, Konnor Pilkington to CLE
Also, upon first check, Konnor Pilkington checked in at #47 on the Sox Prospect list, before the season.- Cesar Hernandez traded to White Sox, Konnor Pilkington to CLE
Sensible trade happens. SoxTalk: "Why weren't they able to acquire this guy, for the rights to the ghost of Courtney Hawkins? We got ripped off!!!1" "This guy is worse at 2B than Danny Mendick (lol) and Leury 'cracks show when I play everyday' Garcia!" Never change- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
Didn't matter. Clown show offense and Keystone Kop defense.- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
Whew...........ok, he is out.- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
Seby....haha, you can't make things up like this......- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
When your bench is Hamilton, Goodwin, Sheets, Collins........you don't exactly have a plethora of options.- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
Me either, but hope against hope.- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
It'd be nice if Goodwin somehow came through here.- Sox @ Royals 7/28, 7:10
Hamilton, Leury, Mendick, Seby....what an amazing run of hitters. - Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
