Chicago White Sox

We just need Robert back so we never have to play Goodwin in CF again.

Was it a continuation game?

Because of one double and a couple of singles?

Awesome to see Burger to start off hot after rejoining Charlotte.

I don’t see how you can trade him at this point, because he’s actually looked really good but it’s doubtful any teams will factor this initial major league stint in their valuations.

God I’m not a fan of Baez and him refusing to play 2B despite giving him a chance to win a World Series makes me like him even less.

Oh you mean over the last two weeks. Yeah, let’s just ignore career stats and pretend the guy with a career 67 wRC+ is as good of a hitter as the guy with a career 102 wRC+.

In what world is Billy Hamilton hitting as good as Brian Goodwin?

Yup, and never healthy

Escobar is signed to an incredibly team friendly contract that ends at the end of this year. The reason his value should be suppressed is because he’s a rental 2B in a market without a ton of teams looking for a 2B upgrade. Under no way, shape, or form is Escobar overpaid.

Exactly, even if Escobar is cost prohibitive (which seems crazy to me), we should be able to get a Cabrera or Harrison for a song. Zero excuse to not add some middle infielder.

I’ll be honest, I’ll be livid if we enter October with Leury as our starting 2B. That is 100% unacceptable for a team trying to win a World Series. If he gets injured then we’re starting Mendick everyday with Tim Beckham as our reserve infielder. At a bare minimum, we have to add another infielder to mix for depth purposes. Also, Fegan basically confirmed the Sox aren’t stretching out Kopech because he’s too important to the bullpen right now. It’s terrifying that we might compromise his ability to start next year because the rest of the pen underperformed. We better get two relievers between now and Friday and let Kopech make some starts down the stretch.

Good god that would suck if we can’t even get a rental 2B.

OMG, this clown is hilarious. If I get this right, he’s claiming he doesn’t steal his ideas from Soxtalk but rather his source helps craft Twitter polls around rumors ???????

Yeah, contending teams don’t absorb a player like Hosmer for prospects, just doesn’t make any sense.

Only if Hosmer is traded to the Royals, because then he can say it’s because the Royals wanted to bring him home and it wasn’t about getting a top prospect

That’s what it’s going to take to move him

Google “White Sox roster resource”

What is your trade proposal for Turner? I don’t see how we get him without disrupting the major league roster.

Turner is a luxury we unfortunately can’t afford. Escobar still remains the most likely 2B addition and the rest of our chips should be used on the pen.

I had never seen this, but it’s absolutely hilarious this is how he got outed.

I wasn’t accusing you, just saying someone on here stole your idea and ran to Twitter with it

Since someone literally just posted this on Twitter and I had never actually seen it, figured I’d share the self outing by Orlando:

5.2 years of Vaughn has to be worth more than Turner at this point, but I agree it’s not enough and that’s because we nothing after our established young major leaguers that is highly valuable. That’s the problem when you have zero top 100 prospects.

Not Steve Cishek is a total clown. He literally just stole this idea from Soxtalk the minute after it was posted.
