I’ve been browsing Twitter less than 24 hours… my quality of life is already worse but I can whole heartedly say that these two Tweets are the best related to the Sox that will occur all year:

So would anyone with half a brain… oops Mr. Hahn, Mr. Williams, Mr. LaRussa, and Mr. Whoever Else Advisor Man. Unless you’re a Cubs exec or Harold or another Soxtalk Madrigal detractor… then it’s understandably a hard no.

Considering the physical window requirements, I would suspect today to be less active… though I don’t really know how long it takes to finalize a contract, get a physical, and submit all the paperwork to NY. I’m sure that all can be done in relative short order. Let’s say the deadline is 7pm.

If you’re getting the 2021 L. Garcia - it’s a good deal. I hope we see that level of relative production from him with less time on the field due to better health and a true right fielder.

It takes quite a bit to make me say this but… what the fuck?

It won’t. Maybe Leury is line fine wine.

Dominican homie was pretty much dead on.

I’ve met my match and believe you have earned the Obsession Crown.

Isn’t it funny that we’ve seen his range be from 1 year to 5 years and from 20 million for the contract to 100 million. Bottom line is that no one has a good pulse on him but I still think we end up with one of him, Castellanos, or Schwarber. Conforto + 2B trade + SP trade or a depth signing is what I keep circling back to.

Fixed - I resent that you omitted me.

Yes

I need to get off the Internet and put myself back to work… my level of Soxtalk obsession lately has been unhealthy due to the compressed activity and my own propensity to, well… be habituated to this team and endless speculation. ?

Circumstances put aside… this is pretty fun actually. Like other professional sports free agency.

Here’s one that isn’t paywalled https://fansided.com/2021/11/30/mlb-rob-manfred-2-different-baseballs-report/amp/ Will be juicey to read the athletic article once it comes out

Well this is about to really become a shit show ?

No doubt it’s intentional. ⚾️?

Holy shit.

Many of us wanted him as well - there’s really zero reason we shouldn’t have. He’s been the most reasonable position player who has signed and fits our teams needs well… regardless of him being right handed. Dude crushes RHP.

They drivel for paragraphs about how great it would be to get Anderson and how it won’t happen… and then don’t even propose any hypothetical trades… even though the title is: “Exploring unlikely ways Yankees and White Sox could work out a Tim Anderson trade”

If y’all bored and want a laugh - here ya go… https://yanksgoyard.com/2021/11/30/yankees-rumors-hypothetical-trade-white-sox-tim-anderson/amp/

Probably as much as he proves worthy of.

Ah man - I thought the Moncada guy had been attacked by 100 duck sized Madrigals.

There ya go.

The plot thickens?

Kimbrel was questionably and most likely bad at first. Semien was understandable bad after a few months. He who shall not be named was deplorable and legit could have been a fireable offense. Oh well - it’s all long gone now. ?
