There's a rift in the space-time continuum when Balta is unasbashedly optimistic and Dick Allen the opposite. Easy for all Sox fans to be cynical. Greg Hibbard (the Bulldog-esque poster) even became cynical the last couple of seasons. Disenchanted might be the better word. Apathetic.

Sox inquired on Wilfred Cordero, but still imprisoned.

Or sign a KBO bounce back guy that's not Korean...

Courtney Hawkins was great at backflips...

Harris/Hinch pretty much put Grifol and Getz to shame… https://www.yahoo.com/sports/detroit-tigers-trying-win-now-111127496.html

Then another team would have offered Clevinger first…but I”m guessing he is still expecting over $12 million at a minimum after last season. With Bauer, not the financial but the massive PR hit and potential (would say more than likely) female fan boycotts. It’s an act of desperation.

They're not going to risk their rebuild exposing those two guys to a young clubhouse...when they now can spend their way through or around roster problems.

He's too expensive and Royals can't sell attempting to compete with that type of move ... to their fans.

Especially the relatively cheap salary aspect.

There's no compelling reason to push Quero up this season. Even if Maldonado and Stassi are inevitably both injured or waived...just use Lee and the equivalent pickup of Zavala freely available on the waiver wire.

They will simply argue Irvin Wells and Baumann can get them through the first half of the season...then the readjustments at the deadline when new ownership will provide them the ability to take on expiring salaries rather than trading core prospects.

As long as it doesn't include 9.8 meters/sec squared

Even John Wick couldn't pull that one off.

Still think Miami would have to be overwhelmed...why would a playoff team give up their best starter with Alacantara out?

No, I was just clarifying what the Santos injury was originally diagnosed as...

We have more candidates for player-manager than actual qualified big league players.

Anderson was never right after getting taken out by yet another ex Royal attempting to play 3B…

Matt Latos incoming if he has ever been within 100 meters of a Royals major or minor league facility of any kind. https://www.royalsreview.com/2016/1/11/10734484/royals-trade-rumor-free-agent-mat-latos Getz still bitter after missing out eight years ago on that wonderful opportunity.

The one concern: Santos finished the 2023 season on the injured list with elbow inflammation. The Mariners plan to ease him into things during spring training in hopes he’ll be ready to go on opening day.

And Tanaka was never quite the Yakamoto-esque ace he was close to billed and when KW offered him one of the biggest contracts in Sox history after the ARod debacle. He was more like a 2/3 for the majority of that deal…pitching at 85-90% previous effectiveness. We will see how long Santos lasts at max velo this year.

At least the White Sox can be literally and figuratively cheap now.
