Who is the most unlikely hero of the 2021 White Sox?
I want to have a reason to say Lopez in three hours.

Why in the world is he addicted to that damned jacket then. He must get paid by Mars Corp or something.

I always thought he was some partner at Mars Corp

Kimbrel’s Option
What’s that? ( Obligated continued side note: change your username. )

Kimbrel’s Option
If the three headed beast works or shows promise to work… it’ll remain. Especially with TLR. The big question mark is who will step into Kopech’s role as he moves to the rotation ( hopefully ) next year.

Kimbrel’s Option
I didn’t know if we held the option if it didn’t vest… as in I was unclear if he became a FA if he didn’t close out 55 games. If that was the case we would have directive to use him as closer significantly… since it’s now clear that we hold the option regardless, his use isn’t relevant.

Kimbrel’s Option
Question was about the details of the option - not if we’re picking it up. ?
-
Kimbrel’s Option
Yep… but it’s getting picked up and his wants regarding it aren’t important. ?

Kimbrel’s Option
Ah good deal, thanks for the clarification. It’s an important detail which helps us understand it doesn’t matter how he’s deployed for the rest of the year.

Kimbrel’s Option
Isn’t it only available if he finishes 55 games this season? I believe he’s around like 35 right now. If true, wouldn’t this mean we’ll have to give him more 9th inning opportunities? About the option, this was written July 16th: His contract includes a $16-million vesting option for 2022 based on a games finished clause in 2021, but he’s unlikely to reach that threshold. Kimbrel has finished 29 games, and the option vests if he finishes 55 games in 2021. I don’t know how vesting options work in this case is it: - If he finishes 55 games the option is triggered - If he doesn’t finish 55 games, the Sox can still trigger the option ?

The fact that the illustrious M&M Jacket Dude isn’t sitting in the scout seats this year speaks volumes. ? Always follow the M&M Jacket Dude’s lead.

Ah didn’t know this… in that case totally wait. One of the best parts was having the gates open for you 3 hours before game time and having all of that time to eat a fully fresh cooked buffet which if I recall, even had a meat carving station featuring prime rib. If you have the correct appetite you can easily eat your $250 ticket into the green. ?

Announcer on ESPN, “Eloy has been great and leading the team offensively since his return but they didn’t really need anyone - as they were a pretty good team at the plate before getting him back.” Uh… ok.
