Chicago White Sox

Hopefully they package him with Robert so Getz can afford to sign Santander and finally fix this offense

Only 3 1/3 years left of Andrew Benintendi

I guess the theory would be these guys would have gone before our picks had we not overslotted them (not sure if true). What’s weird though is Saucke got more than McLain a pick later, so if you like Saucke more why not take him in the 3rd and try to push McLain down a round?

Vaughn is a 10% below league average hitter who plays a bad 1B. I pray for the team he’s an upgrade for.

Schultz, Smith, & Taylor could / should be and Thorpe looks like he might be a legit #3 starter. And there are loads of guys who have MOR / BOR potential. It’s 100% the offense that I’m worried about at the moment.

You never liked Montgomery?

Korey kaught the ball

The 44% K rate for the offense tonight is certainly impressive

I think he’s packaged with one of the big three most likely, but I think people are underrating him. Since Jun 1st, he’s got a 2.70 ERA / 1.40 FIP with 13.5 K’s per nine and a 7.5 K:B ratio. Again, I have never actually seen him pitch well, but apparently he has based on those numbers and teams are desperate for relief pitchers this time of year.

He will 100% be traded and actually return something of value. He’s really damn good for the last month and a half, although it does feel like he sucks every night.

lol no…but the Rangers not selling would be nice. That might be inevitable to some degree though, so let’s go Brebbia!

What’s better from a deadline perspective…a clean 9th from Brebbia or a Rangers win?

McLain must be at least $150k under slot then, which makes much more sense to me

Sloan did FWIW.

What in the f*** Kopech

If this is Fedde’s last start with us, it’s been a joy to watch him pitch in this mostly shitshow of a season. Also, Kopech better strand that runner so Getz can try selling Fedde as a sub 3.00 ERA pitcher.

Good trade value game so far.

I don’t think signing the picks will take much time from GMs. I’m guessing right now is the normal slow dance of buyers and sellers both exchanging ridiculous proposals while looking for someone to pull a Perry Minasian and jump the market in an overly aggressive way.

If you’re interested in Crochet, doesn’t hurt to have some info out there that Tigers are listening to offers.

I know some people think protection doesn’t matter, but it’s hard to argue that the disaster of an offense surrounding hasn’t impacted him.

I know you’re mostly joking, but it sounds like they are calling up Locklear

Doesn’t this just mean whether they go on the active roster or return to the IL?

That leaves $900k above slot for our remaining three picks. Got to imagine gets at least $600k of that amount.

Who doesn’t like Seattle’s system?

We’re eight days from the deadline…I’m sure a few more will enter but a few bubble teams seem to be leaning towards buying now.
