Rodon is gone as the Sox are not going to tender him a contract. Now, like Yolmer, if he goes somewhere else and then comes back on a lesser deal, maybe, but my guess his days with the Sox are over.

Take him over Mazara at this point though.

Awesome articles on all fronts!! They were great!

Interesting debate but I know we just are wanting him to be healthy after that amazing start to his career!! We can never have enough pitching. Hope all of your families are safe and healthy! Peace

Really? I disagree. Hahn would have called medical staff and indicated that he wanted to know the status ASAP. It happens all the time. The longer this goes without info the worse it is. I’m hoping to be wrong. Hahn needs to address.

I know some think the opposite; however, the longer this goes on without knowing makes me think this is more serious than expected. It never works, look at Dunning, to say let's see if it can heal.............Starting to get worried. Hahn should have ordered the MRI immediately and we would have know something by now.

Rodon who has not pitched in months coming in here?

I am just summarizing my personal beliefs and rehashing everything else said by other board posters: No more Mazara and Encarnacion, why Ruiz? Robert should have caught that ball........Moncada is really bad right now......... We were tested at the end of 05, let's just hope this is giving the boys a little fire.

Yes, some of our players need some rest going into the playoffs and the priority should be setting/aligning our pitching rotation first, more than the division win. This year is much different without home field advantage.

Agreed. I cannot believe anyone would consider giving Kopech for Lynn. That is so crazy. Noooooooo

What is Bummer’s health status? Is he pitching in Schaumburg? Do the Sox need a LH reliever?

Amen!!! Agree with this 100000%

One of those players that Kenny Williams (KW) long coveted and finally got his man.

Dyson seems to be one of those KW guys. Why not? We have some slow guys who might be on base paths late in game.

Reiterating what everyone else said. How can the Sox have high hopes to sign International Free Agents and keep trading away space. Don’t get it.

First trade deadline ever where I am particularly concerned that the Sox will overpay and trade away some of the young core. Not this year, let the kids play. We do not even know if the season will end and there will be playoffs. I would not under any circumstance (I am sure some will say Mike Trout, but get real) do the Sox trade, Vaughn, Madrigal, Kopech, Dalquist, Thompson, Kelly or Crochet. No chance. Maybe Adolfo, but why, roll the dice, Sox are hot let's see where this team goes during this crazy time. Thanks to all of you for your interest in the Sox, it makes my day and passes the time well during these days that can be quite long. Peace.

Agree 10000%. This is the first time where I do not want trades made. Save our assets. Still not a guarantee that this season finishes. Kopech coming next year. What is status of Rodon and Bummer injuries/rehab? Also glad Hahn has options on EE and Chisek for next year.

He’s my hero for keeping Sox in Chicago.

Was hoping Sox signed Kipnis and not Cubs!

Cubs ruined him.

Burdi hit 99 mph a couple of times.

Are teams allowed to also negotiate the paying of college for high school and college draft picks and free agents who have not completed degree in addition to bonus?

Love the strategy. Shoot for the moon with some premium guys.

Fair enough but not really comparing abilities more so making a statement about my lack of excitement. However, we were lead to believe he would be a Scott Radinsky LH reliever.

Crochet is Royce Ring redux.
