DH or RF. I’ll admit I don’t know much on him but from some of the outfield highlights I’ve seen from him does not look good in the outfield

Welp.....don’t know what to make of this, not excited, more meh than anything

#planB

Dodged a bullet on this guy

Strasburg? Neither will happen but I’d be more than willing the throw the $$ at him.

I understand some of those fans, not that I want them to spend huge on him but when your team hasn’t landed a big time free agent pitcher in the past and your gm says you are gonna be in the market for 2 pitchers with wheeler, odorizzi and Hamels off the board and the realistic chance of landing a cole or strasburg is a pipe dream. I think some people just want them to get somebody worth a damn

Yeah I would imagine they just move to plan b whatever that might be.

You say we are all dumbasses for falling for it but in the same paragraph still choose to think Cole or stras sign here...... take a deep breath man and realize that simply isn’t going to happen.

When it comes time for playoffs pitching always wins out.

Hahahaha sure thing

Hard no on this dude

At least this thing isn’t going to drag on forever

No one said anything about jumping off the ledge, the grandal signing came out of left field. If they miss on wheeler I will see what they do but won’t put much hope into it based on past success rates

I’ve seen this stare down once before and we bowed out, until proven otherwise I will stay skeptical at best

Welp it isn’t looking promising on the Sox end.

Joc on a 1 year deal is meh if you can’t lock him up for 4 more or so afterwards. Seeing his name in the rumor mill again kinda gives me nightmares to last offseason though....ugh

Don’t split hairs over this like machado, get the deal done and move onto the next

Absolutely zero chance they would have let Abreu walk not when that’s a signal it’s time to contend. Jimenez they would have tried extending just because that’s the whitesox way and what they have him being paid will be bargain dumpster shopping here in a season or so. I’m not going to give this front office the benefit of the doubt you have to do more than extending Abreu and signing grandal to say the money was spent, because imo the moment you spend 250 mil you are going to spend more to make the team a contender. 250 mil and so far the only thing that has come back in new money is the 74 mil to Grandal. There is much more to be spent in my opinion

And last offseason had they signed Machado do you really think they would have just let Abreu walk? Highly unlikely

If you are factoring the Abreu or even Jimenez contract into the equation you are messing with the numbers just to say they got to 250. It’s deceiving on the fact they were under club control and if you had landed Machado you certainly would spend more money to keep Abreu around. So in my eyes that 50 million or whatever you want to classify it as does not count.

Meh, he seems like another random dude....we will see... if we land both before the winter meetings life is good for RH and crew to focus on the final remaining pieces. Idk, last offseason was never ending so to have a potential of grandal and wheeler signed before then would be a huge win for the Sox

McCann serves a purpose on this roster, the trade you could get in return for him would be less than his worth to us in my opinion. He will be Giolitos personal catcher and can fill in at DH occasionally

To be fair as much as I’d like to have JDM he is not a right fielder.

If you could get wheeler locked up before the winter meetings that would be huge so that way Hahn/Kenny can focus on the task of mind games with Scott Boras for one or two of his potential clients

Meh.....it’s whatever, the only way I get mad at this is if this is Hahn’s idea of the money will be spent....
