This deal doesn’t make much sense if we aren’t going to go get some pitching. You can have the best player in the game behind the plate but if you got scraps throwing the ball you only can do so much

Hell yes. Step one. Let’s keep this going!!!

Grandal and Odorizzi still wouldn’t do it for me. You have get another quality pitcher for that to be a justified offseason in my opinion, if you miss out on a Rendon, Cole, strasburg, and wheeler.....not after how we fell flat on our face last offseason. However I agree i don’t mind the 2nd round pick attached to him

Odorizzi in my opinion is not premium talent and if that’s where the money is going to be spent at I will be highly disappointed

It’s going to be tougher this offseason to land a big fish with so many teams in the mix......that’s why landing Machado last offseason was critical

Why would this be an issue if the players celebrating are his own teammates?

Yep. That combined with the yanks interest in Garrit Cole on top of it....but at least we have a seat again this year ?

Who knows..... just know of him from the Pederson trade that fell through last season....

How’s that any different than other “premium” talent we try to go after?

Don’t know if he means aggressive via trade or free agency but if he’s referring to a trade just be prepared to be let down this offseason once again

This. Hahns hand will forever be tied to sitting at a Marshall’s clearance rack vs being able to spend like a major league team needs to do

It’s the whitesox so we pretty much know this already, but fun to speculate what a real owner/GM could do with this team.

I agree, he can platoon at DH when Madrigal needs a spot and would give you a lot of flexibility on the infield. Adding another big time bat is going to be crucial to this team contending this year. Both Madrigal and Robert will have their initial struggles. Rendon would help minimize the effect on the lineup

Because why not

If you can agree to the framework of a trade and get a new contract in there where an opt out is only available after year 2 or 3 I’d be all about it

He not a fan of the DH and that’s where I hold issue to anything more than a 1 or 2 year deal MAXIMUM with him. No reason to offer him anything longer than that

“The money will be spent” ?

Time to back up the brinks truck for Rendon.......one could only dream

Oh boy....that time of year again. Cole is the obvious choice here but strasburg is more realistic of the two. With that said I don’t think the Sox land either of them.

He’s going to use the company line of Robert looks tired, he’s had the longest season of his career we need to rest him and Madrigal still needs to work on his power that will never come ?

Can’t wait for everyone batting below 5 to be replaced already.
