I kinda got over that 4-5 years ago

Bummer to ATL
If Kopech stays, it’s gotta be bullpen. He deserves to be given up on as a starter.

Yep, good potential trade. Time will tell.

Who do you want or think will replace Benetti?
I had no problem with Monaco in the limited amount I heard him. Hope they match up on a deal. When McKnight was on the Score, nothing made me turn off the radio faster than hearing his voice. For him to be the pbp announcer for the only team I care about, would be a gut punch.

Non-Tender 11/17
Got a week… Candidates? Additions to not be exposed to Rule 5? 40 man is at 35. Any educated guesses would be appreciated.

Benetti to Tigers
I’d like to nominate Gavin Sheets for the broadcast booth. Kill a couple birds…

Benetti to Tigers
Yes, and Hawk was important to the Sox brand for a long time until he lost his fastball. I just never viewed Benetti (now 40) that way. Hopefully the next announcer is better for all and the fans upset today will just get used to it. We may not have a lifer announcer ever again. And that’s ok.

Benetti to Tigers
Actually, you can have any take you want. It’s a baseball announcer. It’s not that big of a deal either way. If you never liked the schtick, you’re happy with this. If you liked his announcing, fine…check out his other assignments when you can.

Benetti to Tigers
Love this unless it turns into a “careful what you wish for” situation. Example: Connor McKnight

Marcus Thames named Hitting Coach
Yes, Marcus Thames and Eric Thames are two different people. Not related. Don’t pronounce names the same. Marcus Thames is pronounced Timms.

Tim Anderson Free Agency Discussion
They probably have to say things to cover themselves for future players in the same situation. I think they’re glad he’s gone, and he’s not coming back.

Like Giolito, I guess anything is possible. But I hope not on both.

White Sox Decline Liam Hendriks’ Option
Wonder if they would Friday night news dump the TA decision. One way or the other, some aren’t going to be happy. The Hendriks news was pretty obvious.

Soxtalk pod cast and their opinion of Anderson
They’re just covering their butts in case the Sox pick up his option. If he’s back, then at least they can be around him and not be on record saying they wanted him gone. My starting point of this offseason is that Moncada, Jimenez, and Anderson cannot be in spring training with the Sox.
