And probably will be, at some point in 2024, unfortunately.

Soroka isn't even going to cost what Bummer did, he will be under 6 mil. And no chance in hell he isn't in on the roster, as a SP at a salary between 4 and 6 mil.

ANYONE not named Luis Robert, should be actively made available. Load up on 'cusp of the bigs' guys, and see what shakes out.

Well, you can forget that Cal Quantrill talk now, the Rockies got him. That may be....interesting to watch at Coors.

Washed is crazy...he struggled in his 2023 return to Atlanta, but still did better than basically any pitching prospect we have in AAA, while down in Richmond. One bad 2023 campaign (32 innings mind you), doesn't erase what he accomplished in his only full season in the bigs. Yes, it was before back to back Achilles injuries, I get it. But no way I'd write Soroka off, at 25.

To be fair, there is no one not named Luis Robert who should be salvaged on this roster, anyways. No point in paying for FA gambles, when this team is nowhere close to being competitive. I like moves like this.

There is no money savings…Bummer was at 5.5 in 2024 and minimum 2.5 to buyout….so 8 mil. Soroka and Lopez alone, are at that figure for 2024. That being said, I’d rather have any of the 5 dudes they just got, over the lack of enjoyment gained by watching Aaron Bummer pitch.

Feels lIke we just completely bent Atlanta over on that. Holy cow.

The flyer on Soroka is worth it, along with Braden Shumake

He played 2B 5-6 years ago, and our organization DOES like to go get guys 5-6 years after they SHOULD have tried .....

Duvall? Eh...I don't get the appeal there, but Lourdes is a different story.

TIL: There are Sox fans who actually enjoyed listening to Benetti on TV casts. I'm fine with joke time in the booth being gone in 2024, on the rare occurrence that I actually want to watch this team.

She should IMMEDIATELY be hired as VP of OPs, but that makes too much sense. So, we'll just truck on forward with.........*checks notes*......Chris Getz.

He didn't have/couldn't disclose until the cases were settled. There was a very good reason he didn't show it to the MLB 2 years ago, he didn't have it.

Yes sir, I came to post the same thing Tony. Everyone was so quick to throw Bauer under the bus, and call the guy a POS.

We did it! 40 full games under 500 for the year! Finally succeeded at a goal I set in my mind for the White Sox.

We're getting to 40 under, it is within our sights!

This team is going to screw up even losing 101, can't succeed even any failures.

1-3 finish gets us to the magical 40 under. I’ve seen this pitching staff, and we can do it.

And Chris Sale.

Love you Cease, but I'm on a mission to see us finish 40 games under .500.

A 7-8-9 that strikes fear into any opposing team.

3-6 finish to get to the 40 games under promised land!

3-7 for a cool, even 40 games under .500 for the Championship Window run.
