is soxtalk anti-josh nelson? always wondered why nobody here ever discussed SM

if he's on a tear for the first half, the sox would very much pick up a chunk of his salary to boost the return. they'd only be paying for between 1/3 and 1/2 of a season anyway

joe mauer wtf lmao

imagine being competent enough to not only add guys who will add wins on their own, but to add depth behind them

these are guys who they might be able to flip at the deadline

i don't see Getz waiting til the deadline, that extra time allows a really bad Sox team to severely diminish Cease's numbers, coupled with a half season less of control for whoever he's traded to, the return would be less than if he's traded now

I think Getz knows that his asking price for Cease is higher than what teams wanna pay, he's rolling the dice until suitors start falling off the table, that's when you'll see the price come down 100% sure that cease gets dealt, about 90% sure it'll be for way less than what Soxtalk feels is fair

"Give Chris Getz a chance!"

did he really say that?

the solution is to stop caring about the white sox until they're no longer ?

lmfao he's such a piece of s%*# liar

I think the Sox fan base's cynicism has reached a new level that hasn't been seen before in the last 30 yrs, i wouldnt be surprised if more front office firings happen in 2024, it's gonna be a s%*# show and I think the ballpark will more than reflect it. it'll be even worse than 2023 can you dig it

only way he sells the team is if attendance keeps plummetting to the point where he's humiliated into selling

maybe he sucks at Twitter as much as he sucks at being a journalist ? that's fair tho, maybe he heard something but I doubt it

Morosi makes money by how much his information travels, i.e. clicks/shares/retweets That's why you should only ever bother with people who have a proven track record of getting the facts right

id wait til he's got 2 years left on his deal, no team is gonna give up what he's worth right now. only downside is those last 2 years are 20mil/per

Signing a guy like Ohtani isn't just about what he gives your team in odds to make the playoffs, it's also about how much revenue his presence alone adds to the team youre telling me that there's no way that the Sox could profit off his signing for the duration of his contract, even if it's a mega deal

They're using sticky stuff in AA still aren't they? his k/9 is likely inflated, heard a few other guys mention this also

Getz isn't trading cease for guys who are 3+ years away

90% chance Sox are getting back some MLB ready players, but arozerena? nah

gonna be a rough couple years for the die hards loI I generally stop watching them before the ASB anyways so nothing will change tbh

fwiw Cease is trending on twitter

still think we get a haul for him, mightve been better to wait for the off-season

I'm very confident he will live up to his name in ATL. He's never been the same since his bicep injury

imo if someone blows the doors off with an offer for Robert you gotta strongly consider it. his bat is very streaky plus he's been hurt a few times already. I've been on record saying we should trade him and Cease but at least Getz isnt making stupid comments like Hahn.
