I am thinking Oakland thinks less of White Sox prospects than even the people who rank them near the bottom. Bassitt or this one withe the prospect capital going back is a no brainer. So it's either that or the Sox are tapped out budget wise.

I mentioned this a couple of years ago. The Sox and DBacks used to do a lot of deals when they shared in Tucson.

How come you aren't bitching about Lance Lynn? He's older than Kimbrel.

His last 20 gamezwith the Sox his wrc+ was 171. Total cherry picking, but he was coming along pretty nicely.

Should be, but remember they would have had $15 million to play with. It's not a bad return especially since the clock was ticking.

So the Dodgers were offering Bellinger?

So within 4 days after Tony LaRussa said people who think the Sox need to go outside the organization for an OF are not White Sox fans, the Sox made 2 trades for OFs. You can't make this shit up.

Another OF? Rick Hahn is clearly not a White Sox fan.

If he can't hold up as a reliever, how could he possibly hold up as a starter?

He was hurt in 2020 after throwing 7 innings. This was inevitable IMO. Making him a starter was always a pipedream , but he can still be very valuable in the bullpen if he can stay healthy.

The problem with trading Kimbrel now is you are only going to get pennies on the dollar. If he's doing well, a team will want him, but then, why give him up? A contending team isn't going to give up a contributor. If he is doing poorly, it would be a salary dump. Total market misread amateurs like me saw coming from miles away.

When you get later into May, the 6:10 games suck because they can barely see half the game. I would imagine with more people working from home than ever before, and most probably will never return to the office 5 days a week, 610 starts aren't as difficult during the week as before the pandemic.

So I guess you tell their GM, you're going to trade this guy eventually.

Any playoff team can win a series except for Minnesota. I don't think they can win a postseason game anymore.

Exactly. Most of us have done some really dumb things, and probably had fun and got away with it .

Apparently their offer to the Sox was so good, the Sox didn’t even ask InBev to counter.

Didn't he just Monday say......

I like the singing beer vendor best. We all work in a yellow shirt all day, a yellow shirt all day, a yellow shirt all day.

Since Reifert and Brooks don't seem to hear our calls to terminate Hahn, I am with you, they need to be terminated. Who do we contact demanding their ouster?

Get the double cheeseburger at that stand. Best 6.00 double cheeseburger in Chicago.

I think its only for April.

I think Rodon should dominate as long as he is healthy. The question is how long will that last? Probably long enough for a QO, but Craig Kimbrel.

I think Mahomes has only had 1 or 2 bad games in his career.

Hamstring not good. The Sox lead the league in hamstring injuries the last 4 seasons.

Hamms is a Molson Coors brand. Maybe they will sell drafts.
