Chicago White Sox

Gavin.fucking.Sheets!! Also, fuck you Berrios!!

I don’t think so. Burger, Mendick, & Lamb all go first plus likely Sheets.

He may not be a good defensive OF, but he’s passable enough to be a corner bench type guy which is useful when you are as RH as us.

Phone died but holy fuck yes!!

Winning run at 2B and professional pinch runner on the bench. Did Billy get hurt in frame 1? WTF?!

They tired...long day ?‍♂️

Now use Billy as a pinch runner!

Seriously, why is Hamilton on this roster if not for situations like this?

Vaughn is fucking due

Good start!

Just need one meatball

With a pretty narrow playoff field, I really think we see teams load up this year and stack their rosters for October. Sox can’t be complacent because their odds are 95% to make the playoffs. Go get the pieces needed to build a postseason monster.

Because this is the Trade Winds sub-forum ?

Moncada pissed about that Fangraphs top 50 trade value list!

That should be the plan, dependent on cost of course.

We need power though and I really don’t want him as our RF next year. Starling Marte has reverse splits, should come cheaper, and provides much more power. Get him & Escobar and have no holes in the lineup.

Who are you thinking?

They will definitely need to trade for a guy.

Let’s get some fucking runs.

Yeah, let’s DFA him instead of letting him work through shit at Charlotte

It’s pretty clear IMO they are nearing DFA territory with him and were hoping a miracle start might make him tradable.

A runner on 2nd with outs and the next run with a high win probability isn’t always going to be the case in the playoffs. Maybe he’ll get better at fielding with time, but right now dudes can drop bunts on him and there is nothing he can do.

I really hope that isn’t the case.

I’ll keep saying it, but we should be looking at OF upgrade. I get Engel & Goodwin have performed well, but we need to be prepared for when their hot streaks end.

This isn’t directed at you, but everyone should be blamed for the role they play in losses. The offense sucked today and that contributed to the loss. So did La Russa using Crochet in extras when he has proven time & time again that he can’t field his position well. Guys shouldn’t get a free pass because others sucked a little bit more.
