Let's see, Leury, Diekman, Bummer...did we eat any money with Ruiz? Reynaldo Lopez is $3.625 million in his final Sox season.
Those 4-5 salaries combined would hopefully represent a pretty decent player if Hahn could actually pick the correct one.
Grandal we can at least get back 1/2 or maybe 2/3rd's of his salary for nothing in return but a Tier C prospect.
Lance Lynn
2 years/$38M (2022-23), plus 2024 club option
signed extension with Chicago White Sox 7/17/21
22:$18.5M, 23:$18.5M, 24:$18M club option ($1M buyout)

They're going to have to dump Lynn, Clevinger, Lopez, Alberto, etc, as well.
Everything must go! Everything that's not nailed down.
