Offseason Part 2 - Lets the Rumors & Action Begin
If the Twins manage to get Story and pry Montas away from the A's, they're probably gonna end up finishing 2nd in the division. We currently have an 11 WAR edge on them, getting those 2 probably halves that edge.

I hope Katz likes him and thinks he has a fix, cause I don't really get the appeal otherwise.

I'd be pissed too. If he really hurt it during the bike crash from December and hasn't bothered to have surgery on it till now, it's a massive fuck up.

Hahn said pitching depth was priority #1, then they go and spend $3 million on a guy who had a ERA near 6 last year. If that's a sign of things to come, we're definitely not getting Conforto.

We gave him $3 million? I'm not exactly sure what we see in him, but this guy was DFA'd by Philly last year.

I wonder when he broke it. You have to wonder if not having access to team doctors affected his return timeline.

Ugh, I was hoping the Astros would get worse. I'm still hoping the Dodgers miss out on Freeman so they can go and spend big money on Correa.

Illinois will have to face Houston in the round of 32. Houston is ranked 4th on kenpom. Why the hell do we get screwed every year by the committee?

4.5 WAR isn't worth $25 million a year I guess.

Yeah this makes me think we're not getting any other pitchers.

Cruz after the trade last year wasn't that good.

Yeah, Peguero is more or less a throw in. I guess it depends on what you think of Petty. He's still only 18 and throws pretty hard. Our closest comp is probably Kelley, except Petty hasn't had the injury issues thus far.

He has a 2023 option. So it's really 2 years.

White Sox Sign RP Joe Kelly (2yrs with a club option; $17m)
I don't think it's a matter of why the Sox won't trade him. It's a matter of lack of interest from other teams for what the Sox are asking in return.

https://soxmachine.com/2022/03/12/joe-kelly-white-sox-signing-analysis/ I had no idea Kelly got hurt in the playoffs last year. Apparently, the injury was not bad enough for him to miss the 6 month time that it might have required. We'll see how it goes I guess.

Caruso comes back and the Bulls limit the Cavs to 91 points. His impact is impeccable.

Sox sign 2B Josh Harrison (1 yr, 5.5M; club option; 1.5M buyout)
And yet he still put up similar numbers to Harrison over the last 2 months. I think that speaks more about Harrison than Hernandez.
