White Sox Sign RP Joe Kelly (2yrs with a club option; $17m)
They shouldn't do anything until they find a lefty hitting right fielder. Then try to fill the second highest priority. They should only work on one thing at a time. That's the secret.

Even half a season is a stretch

Sox sign 2B Josh Harrison (1 yr, 5.5M; club option; 1.5M buyout)
BTW we are assuming he's our 2nd base solution. He could be the right field solution. Let's get he and Garcia out there on the right side.

I didn't have a problem giving up Madrigal. I loved the Kimbrel signing and still believe it will work out.

The new White Sox bullpen is a MAJOR upgrade
I'm loving our pen. You left out one key aspect other than health, the guys who are coaching and managing them. I agreed with 90% plus of TLR's bullpen usage. He made some moves that didn't work out, a couple total head scratching decisions, but overall I hope he continues on the same path. I think the coaching will continue to improve as well, no reason not to believe additional MLB experience helps Katz.

A couple days removed and we forgot the sacrifice these players made for the future of baseball. If there is anything I learned this winter is MLB teams make too much money. $11 million should be $15 million. We should be outraged they only are paying him $5.5 million. He can't work anywhere else, has a short career, and deserves more of the profits than ownership.

Finished it for you. Every mention of Nick should include phrases like "Often injured", "delicate", and "unlucky", "rehabbing", "unreliable". I hope he has a great career, but if they traded for him, this board would hate the move pointing out his injury history and how we need guys to stay healthy to compete.

Right field is going to be an equally exciting signing. My hope is Kimbrel rebounds to the point he'll bring someone at the deadline.

Offseason Part 2 - Lets the Rumors & Action Begin
As a playoff team I hope we don't improve too much and the non playoff teams sign the best available talent to improve the competitive balance of the league. See how that eases any angst? We want teams below us to get better.

I like it, especially if it brings back regularly scheduled double headers.- The MLB lockout is lifted!
Since it doesn't really affect Manfred, cancelling games isn't a problem. Maybe when the owners figure out what's been going on it will change. - Fathoming Bauer not securing a job anywhere?
