Garrett Richards to Boston, 1 year $10 million.
Yeah, I looked up Richards' stats last few years and he hasn't made more than 16 starts in 5 years. Quintana's had health issues as of late, but he's at least made around 30 starts consistently in the past few years.

Tuberville might actually be more clueless than Trump when he first took office.

Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
I guess they were looking for bullpen help at the deadline after all.

Foodies: Other Bullpen Depth Pieces
Wow who else are they looking at? As far as I'm concerned the only guy we should upgrade is Jace Fry.

Trade Whispers - Starting Pitchers
I'm fine with either option. Signing a guy like Q is obviously the safe route. But if we get Burnes and he pitches anywhere near like he did last year for the next 4 years, we're going to be the favorite out of the AL every year.

What a Karen. The metal detectors wouldn't be there if it wasn't for people like her inciting a riot.

Pagano was definitely bad at his job, but he wasn't the one responsible for scoring 3 points in a playoff game before one garbage time touchdown.

DH Options
He's basically a left handed Nick Madrigal with more power, worse speed, and worse defense.

I'd imagine AAV is guaranteed dollars/guaranteed years. In which case, it's 54/3 for this. Win-win for both sides honestly. Hendriks and his agent gets to claim that he's the highest paid reliever and the White Sox get financial flexibility.

Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
I think it's because the 4th year is an option yet he's still guaranteed 54 million that technically makes this a $18 million AAV deal.

They definitely have some kind of source.

Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
I still think Rodon is worth a flier as a reliever. He has the velocity to do well in relief, but he's probably going to need some time to adjust to the new role.

Hmm perhaps Toronto had a similar deal on the table.

Dewon Day said he'd sign with the Jays though lol

When Schwarber just got $10 million a year, Brantley's probably out of our price range.

Having Hendriks really makes this bullpen nails. Colome was nearly perfect last year, but there's no way he would be over a 162 game season.

Add another starter like Quintana or Richards and it'll be one hell of an off-season.
-
Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
So the rumors were pretty on point. 3 and 39 is what the Sox offered and he wanted a 4th year. The Sox got a little creative with the 4th year and got the job done.

Holy shit. They really went 4 years.

NFL Thread 2020-2021
The Steelers seemed like a better version of this year's Bears honestly. Better defense, slightly better QB play, and no running game. The Bears at least found a run game late in the season, but the Steelers regressed heavily as the season went on.

If Biden was 10 years younger, he probably wins an Obama-style victory.

Kyle Schwarber signs with Nationals: 1 year 10mil
It's actually 9. He's been a 2 WAR player in the 3 years before 2020. Edit: I'm referencing fWAR, bWAR does have him as a 5 WAR player.

Yeah except he hates the media because it won't kiss his ass. He doesn't give a shit about whether or not the media is subconsciously racist like most of America.
