Chicago White Sox

Even if we don’t make a trade (which would suck), I hope guys like Wheeler get moved so they don’t have draft pick compensation tied to them this offseason.

You want us to trade for relievers?

I don’t know his background, but FG had him as their 17th best prospect coming into the year despite his age because of his plus stuff. There is obviously some value there.

Pnoles is the absolute worst.

Plus a prospect that throws 100 MPH.

Lol...Pomeranz has been terrible, no way he’s commanding any team’s #3 prospect.

God I despise Levine & Nightengale after last offseason.

Edwin Diaz reportedly out of play. Seems like the closer market is quickly coming down to Greene & Colome.

Thanks!

So he was under slot or was it only $100k back then?

I just think optically this sends a terrible message after Hahn screamed we had “unprecedented financial flexibility” & “economic might” all-season. At least try to get the best young players possible instead of cash. But to your point, the bigger question is how did we fail so badly with this signing class after two years in the penalty box.

Seems like a pretty important question to ask at SoxFest because at face value this entire signing class / approach stinks.

What in the fuck are you talking about? Every time you get emotional and start posting you suddenly lose all logic.

Absolute bizarre take, but plus he was calling him a two win OF in the Bauer thread so now he’s arguing both ways.

But couldn’t there be some Cuban guys that eventually come over?

I guess I struggle to understand the logic of this move unless we really like this 19 year old kid. Does anyone know what he signed for in 2017? He must have been an overload guy.

Seems very Bulls like TBH.

Holy shit, he called the Nate Jones trade!

Yup, 100% this.

Probably depends on how he does in the AFL.

Awesome...looking forward to it.

100% disagree on Abreu. You either get a solid piece or hold onto him. There are off the field considerations you are ignoring, such as how the broader fansbase would react to dealing our most recognizable name for nothing and potentially tertiary impacts to Moncada.

Why does a team’s depth chart have anything to do with a prospect’s intrinsic value?

Lol...I don’t think @guygusman even made an argument, I think he was just ripping on you for how ridiculous you sound. You really need to settle down with the aggression Spanky.

It’s only been 2/3 of a season, so that’s kind of a weird way of looking at it. And I hope you wouldn’t be shocked that Bauer would be the same caliber pitcher he’s been the last few years. Also, Puig’s peak doesn’t matter because he’s a pure rental.
