Nontender deadline almost here
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Exactly. Q is the perfect backbone for the #3-4 guy in this rotation. -
Yeah. He cut his thumb doing dishes.

Trevor May signs with Mets for 2 yr deal
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to bmags's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Woof. A $7.5M AAV was not something I would expected out of May in this market. -
Kevin Kramer has got to be extremely likely to be taken, right? He's major league ready and plays all over the infield. Seems like he would be an obvious choice for a lot of teams as a utility guy.

George Springer Thread
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to Squirmin' for Yermin's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Good point, he probably thinks he's too old and can't handle it anymore. Did you get a Zack Wheeler White Sox jersey yet?- 638 replies

George Springer Thread
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to Squirmin' for Yermin's topic in Pale Hose Talk
One thing to consider is that Springer may have told teams that he only wants to play CF. Something like this could make the Blue Jays more attractive than the Sox.- 638 replies

Dodgers sign Bauer (3/102, opt-outs, 40-45-17)
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to Jose Abreu's topic in The Diamond Club
I paid attention to this during Bauer's vlog post about the La Russa DUI stuff and was looking for any indication of being turned off by it and if anything he seemed to be closer to defending La Russa if anything else. Maybe I'll have to watch it again, but nothing about it made me think it hurt Bauer's chances of coming here. That being said, I hope Joel Sherman is absolutely wrong here. -
Sherman said this is an article today... "It generally comes down to dollars and cents, and Cohen has the most of that and is operating in a field in which just the Blue Jays, White Sox and perhaps one or two other clubs are revved up to spend in this market."

68 games? The fuck? I'm being lazy by not finding a link, but I assume they mean 68 games in total, not per team? Like a tournament?

I don't follow this thread much, but how many of you here have been positive for COVID yet? I just got tested yesterday, and then about 2 hours after my test I lost my taste and smell. Super strange to get absolutely no enjoyment out of eating.

George Springer Thread

Yea, if nothing else, people who have no followings will give Dave their own scoops because he has a voice on SoxTwitter.- 638 replies

Absolutely one of the dumbest things I've read on this site in a while, but then again I don't see most of your posts. ?

That's an insane package. That's a package for someone like Ronald Acuna, not Blake Snell.

While I mostly agree with you, the Rays go to their bullpen very early. I think Snell would have a longer leash on pretty much any other team, and his lack of innings wouldn't look as glaring. That being said, I don't value Snell like the White Sox and Boston valued Sale, and that's essentially what a Vaughn + Kopech trade would be like when it was Moncada/Kopech/Basabe. And like others have said, making a big trade with the Rays in general scares me off. Go after Marquez or Woodruff if you have to trade for a #2 guy behind Giolito.

Joey Gallo would be an interesting target for RF. Gold glover, bats lefty, gets on base, massive power.

I disagree, but I think it will also depend on what the Sox add to their bullpen this off-season as well as how the pen is performing next year. If they are struggling and need Crochet, sure. But if we are talking the 2020 bullpen we had this year, stretch him out. My off-season plan included resigning Colome and adding Kirby Yates. If you can do that, I think you afford the luxury of leaving Crochet in AA/AAA in 2021 to stretch out until he's needed in September to be a 2-inning guy for the playoffs.

Yup, exact same hope and expectation.

Hoyer got promoted to VP of Baseball Ops. This would leave a vacancy in their GM spot, unless they just let McLeod take it.

Sox hire Cairo as bench coach
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It doesn't bode well for those of us who are holding out hope that a La Russa convinction in December would result in them firing/mutually parting ways with TLR. Or it could be a complete coincidence that he happened to have played for TLR and maybe the Sox are hedging their choice as a guy who would be a good choice independent of La Russa, but may also be good in conjunction with La Russa in the event that he is found innocent/they keep him regardless. Honestly it would be smart of them to hedge themselves for both outcomes. -
Sox hire Cairo as bench coach
ChiliIrishHammock24 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Wait, whose our 2nd pitching coach behind Katz? -
They Cubs could throw money in a trade. Bryant and $10M to buy a decent prospect, or something along those lines. It's insane to me to believe a team like the Cubs could fuck up so badly by non-tendering Bryant.

I saw Eno Sarris mention something on Twitter today about the Blue Jays bring competition for the White Sox on Springer. My takeaway was just him acknowledging the Sox are in on, and possibly most aggressively so, Springer.
