100% the lower velocity is why he sucked. I’ve never been more sure of anything out her related

The best teams have maybe what like 5-6 good bats in a lineup? Why put so many resources into making one of those catcher for 130 games per year

It’s forward thinking to trade him because we know the Sox aren’t going to extend him. But how do we win the World Series THIS YEAR if we trade him? We kinda already need him to regain velocity and dominance to make a run this year, no?

100%. Just fill C & 2B from within. Please spend these trade resources on an OF and always pitching.

Ever since you suggested outman a couple weeks ago or whatever I’m all about it. Never even knew he existed. My whole goal for the offseason if I was GM has been to turn the outfield into one of the top units in baseball. Outman is perfect to go next to Robert & Colas. Imagine the surplus value potential with the cost of that outfield over the next 3 years. Eloy is DH. Experiment over. Sorry bub

Bout time. Burger was born to be a late inning 1B defensive replacement

Oh lol! I forgot we can stack multiple championship-style moves

Championship move here Sox. Can’t trade Vaughn now I guess?

Exactly. They will White Sox. They will do neither. The best we can hope for is a monster Gio season and a QO.

Have you forgotten this is the White Sox? In what universe are they going to make a risky forward-thinking move like trading Giolito? Only a few clubs like the Rays have the stones to do that. It’s a nice thought but no way that happens.

Lol. Did we suddenly become the Rays?

Do they really think we can just puke our way to the World Series?

The 87-90s are my favorite. That cursive C man

Outman is exactly the player you want IMO. My goal for the offseason has been to slide Eloy permanently to DH and turn the outfield into a super plus defensive unit. Outman, Robert & Colas would be incredible.

It helps clear out the value in the minors

It’s gonna be so bad. Brace for the cringe brother

It’s all velocity for him IMO. Was it the sticky stuff that allowed him to sit 95-96, touching 97? I have no clue. What I feel like I do know is he gets shelled 92-94.

This seems like such a terrible idea. He doesn’t provide difference-making offense. I’ve pretty much landed in the boat that spending big money on a catcher is one of the worst things a team can do with limited resources.

Cool he just said they are trading Vaughn and rolling with Colas. I like it.

I’d love 2-3 dominant innings every 3 games or something like that. Sounds cool in my head

We are playing for fun really hits home. One doesn’t get the impression we are trying to beat the living s%*# outa 29 other teams.

Thanks for doing this. It was really helpful for me to see. It makes me think buying out Pollock at 5M is a no-brainer. Save another 8?

Whoa whoa whoa. You can’t spin your way out of that post. That thing made no sense. You need to let each Soxtalk member take a few minutes with that thing and have at it however they feel like they need to. I can’t let you blame that thing on Hahn or Jerry. They don’t deserve that man

Meeeeeeennnnnnddddddooooooooozzzzzaaaaaa!!!

Well if it is Ozzie, maybe they want to give the impression that some semblance of due diligence was done this time?
