I still think signing a free agent is more likely but Corbin Burnes is definitely a “target”. Probably expensive though
-
Right team. Wrong pitcher

Foodies: Sox/Giolito discussing an extension?????
Y2Jimmy0 replied to Jack Parkman's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Not really sure. I just know they're talking. -
Yeah maybe. It won't happen with one of those guys though.
-
If it's a package including Madrigal, Corbin Burnes is my guess. The White Sox have always loved him. I'd do Madrigal, Stiever and Heuer for Burnes in a heartbeat. I'd be interested in Musgrove as well but not for that package.
-
Not really. Always on his terms.
-
They’ve seen him a bunch physically in last year. He made it clear that from a baseball standpoint, he’s not far away. He needs to assimilate culturally though and learn how to play every day. The grind is a bigger issue. I’d bet he goes to Winston-Salem

Old: Mega Hendriks Speculation Thread
Y2Jimmy0 replied to Chicago White Sox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Most of those options are waiting for Hendriks to sign. That’s how this goes. -
Not sure. He’s the type of profile Dipoto likes. Not sure. I know Heuer has been discussed in talks in general. I’m not really sure what exactly it’d be. Just threw a package out there. Gonzales is really good and cheap
-
Not sure. I’m fairly confident the White Sox can develop another Heuer though regardless
-
I’d think like Madrigal, Stiever and Heuer probably gets you Gonzales. I’d rather just sign Quintana
-
Marco Gonzales likely costs Madrigal and two other pieces in a deal. It’s a great contract.

Dodgers sign Bauer (3/102, opt-outs, 40-45-17)
Y2Jimmy0 replied to Jose Abreu's topic in The Diamond Club
I think so. They only have $100 million committed for 2022 though -
Dodgers sign Bauer (3/102, opt-outs, 40-45-17)
Y2Jimmy0 replied to Jose Abreu's topic in The Diamond Club
They’ve indicated that they’re already pretty much tapped out. I think he goes to LAD -

The Codify stuff is real. Hendriks loves the company and attributes much of his success to them. Not sure how much the White Sox want it out there but they're probably the most Codify friendly team in the sport currently. Yasmani Grandal and Lucas Giolito love it. Keuchel uses it now too and McCann will likely turn the Mets onto it. It's a big deal to Hendriks. Hopefully it helps. -
It doesn’t make sense. Players aren’t accepting 140 games unless they get paid for 162. The owners have no leg to stand on. The only way spring training gets delayed is if local governments in AZ and FL shut down spring training and that seems very unlikely.
-
Giolito, Lynn and Keuchel don’t like pitching on 5 days rest. We don’t have to complicate this
-
The Sale plan doesn’t make sense for him because he has no innings base. If they think he’s a starter, he should be starting. If he’s in the big league bullpen all year, I’d bet that he’s never a starter. He needs innings. I doubt he gets 100 pitching out of big league bullpen.

I was waiting for this. Hendriks sweepstakes is almost over. -
I honestly don’t think spring training gets delayed. The owners want to because they don’t want to pay players salaries without fans. They really have no leg to stand on. Unless the federal government or local governments in Arizona and Florida don’t allow spring training, it’ll start on time. Evan Drellich of The Athletic just wrote about it. All this means is, big league guys, NRI and AAA guys will be at ST. AA and under comes in after they depart and season starts late and runs into October. Small town USA will absolutely have fans in the stands. None of these businesses will survive otherwise.

It's much different. Passan wrote about it today. The top 3 free agents signed in successive night at the winter meetings last year. -
BaseballAmerica: Kelley Draws Rave Reviews from Instructs
Y2Jimmy0 replied to bmags's topic in FutureSox Board
I think every team now sees the benefits of an alternate site type thing. The only issue would be having enough staff. I’ll be curious to see what the org does with the Great Falls staff -

100%. Tony has been active, vocal and recruiting like crazy. He’s a big reason why coaching staff is so solid, Lynn is here and he’ll be a big reason why Hendriks is here if they sign him too. -
Tremendous get for the Cubs and Marquee. Boog is great.
