This. His age is literally the only thing he has going for him. He is a bad baseball player. Let the rebuild drag on. This front office is a joke.

If this was the case then you would think they would have tried working a 3 team trade if you are getting at sending Mazara to Boston.

I wasn’t the one who said this offseason was crucial to open our window. I wasn’t the guy who said starting this next season the goal was to start winning and get to the playoffs. That word was mentioned by the Sox at the end of last season and going into this winter. Mazara does not accomplish this. He’s a bench player maybe on a contending team not a starter on one.

At that point you slam the window shut not extend it. As of right now the window is cracked open. It’s the GM and ownerships responsibility to kick that shit open and they are playing scared. #2ndplaceteams

My problem with this is this move is something a team looking to start a rebuild makes not a team looking to signal you are about over with the rebuild and are ready to win. Simple as that.

This this and this

Wow....woke up to the garbage happening already. If this is the only move we make this organization a in a lot of trouble. Nothing like kicking the can down the road another season or two because you are afraid to spend money.

Hopefully Hahn is drunk, either way I’m not staying awake to see if this goes down tonight. Hoping and praying I see him traded to the Marlins when I wake up

It’s flat out embarrassing. I cannot love this comment enough.

That blog maybe someone needs to text it to Hahn and tell him to stay away from the bottle

I don’t see the fit regardless of player’s position and being a left handed hitter, his stats are underwhelming and anything other than a fringe prospect would be an overpayment. I would rather take the wait and see approach then bring him in and give up a decent prospect for a guy who you won’t control for any real length of time

Best case scenario he explodes and walks in free agency 2 years from now, yet once again doing nothing for the window of contention, why that is so hard to understand I don’t know. When you can sign a for sure thing offensively and have them for the majority of your contention window without having to give up anything? The move makes no sense unless you are trying to be cute and save some money

Giving up anything of value for this guy when he’s simply been meh and is a free agent in 2 years, does nothing to push you into your contending window and will cost you your 2018 2nd round pick if the rumors are true. Terrible in just about every aspect other than he fills a position of need and is a left handed bat. Underwhelming acquisition at best

What’s he saying lol

For being given the opportunity to play everyday in right field of all places and as part of a platoon package with Garcia it’s a bad deal

This. Nothing screams kicking the can down the road for contention more than a move like this and being content with it. me yelling at management right now....no marbles

Yes this is what I was getting at. If u get Mazara and that’s your big splash for power then management has a lot of explaining to do

Congrats you spent 74 mil on one player you did something that 99% of baseball teams have done in the past..... and missed out twice on 2 other premium free agents that were your top pieces to help transform this rebuild.

So let’s say you do this trade for Mazara and if you bring in a piece like Castellanos or JD Martinez to be a DH type player where would that leave you with when it comes time for Vaughn to come up and you have to move Abreu to DH?

More like management needs to grow a pair of balls step up to the table take a chance and land a proven free agent by paying the money out versus shopping at the dollar store

I get it. He is good at hitting vs right handed pitching and is a left handed hitter, but this is just such a Whitesox move, very frustrating to see mediocrity continue with these guys

If his role is a utility player then I’m okay with it but if he’s your everyday right fielder as of today/tomorrow when castellanos, Calhoun, and Ozuna are still out there this is a failure by management

Who cares when there are other high quality free agents out there. This dude does not help you win anything. Yes he’s only 24 years old but he’s not moving the needle one way shape or form

What the hell is this? I go away for like 2 hours to do some work after non stop checking all day and see this? Hahn and co must really not give a shit. Trading for this guy with the options still available in free agency is a slap in the face of all whitesox fans when they say the money will be spent.
