Chicago White Sox

? That’s why I was telling you ?‍♂️

It just did

Exactly.

That really sucks...thanks for sharing Jimmy.

I just said they are a consideration, but I think these guys focus on gross dollars more often than not, especially when tax rates can change. Also, there is pressure from the union to take the largest gross offer.

You honesty didn’t remember us trading Narvaez for Colome?

I think taxes are a consideration in these things, but I think you guys are giving these guys too much credit. More often than not they’re making their decisions on gross dollars IMO.

Can you please stop?

Sounds Narvaez to the Brewers. Will be interesting to see what they give up for him.

Do you copy and paste this same paragraph over & over again?

It will be interesting to see how the Sox pivot here. Sounds like the Bumgarner market is moving quickly now and the Sox probably weren’t very involved while pursuing Wheeler. They either need to hop on that wagon ASAP or talk to Boras about his lefties. There really aren’t any other free agent alternatives.

He also said he didn’t think Wheeler would have been worth the money. I really don’t think he’s the spokesman and just offering his own opinion based on the limited info he’s privy to.

We need average those first 40 games.

The Mets have zero money to work with, so them letting him walk doesn’t really mean anything.

Yeah, I was about to call out that paragraph. You’re just going to piss off the fanbase by saying that shit.

Wow, she really needs to keep her opinions off the internet.

I will say we really need to make our RF addition count now. Can’t go with a Calhoun type next year.

At our park? And for $100M?

Cole is not happening, but if I were Hahn I’d try to convince Jerry to add $75M and go get Strasburg.

I really think we are fucked in terms of plan B’s unless we can pull off Ryu and right now there is absolutely nothing linking us to him.

Those offers are way too light based on what Wheeler just landed.

That would be my guess.

I think he will be closer to 3/$70M.

What is a reasonable 3 year deal for Ryu in your view?

And this is what I was afraid of. You miss out on Wheeler and now all the lesser options are ridiculously overpriced. $100M for Bumgarner would be absolute insanity.
