2023 MLB offseason signings and rumors thread
I bet some team will take a flyer on Bauer. Where do you think he ranks with Deshaun Watson?

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
Sounds like Francona.

Hahn content with 2B options
There's only one way to find out if our rookies can play at major league level.

The case for Elvis Andrus @ 2nd Base
We gotta find out if the rookies can play. Romy G and L Sosa.

2022
Lots of low points last season. Engel dropping the flyball with two outs in the 9th was the worst. However, I can sense optimism returning here.

BA White Sox Top 10
Arizona or Kanny for 2023? Chappelli.

That's all you need to say.

Jack certainly doesn't

Jason Benetti & Steve Stone back - options picked up
Most of them talk too much.

Great song. Thanks.

Liam Hendriks coming up in trade discussions
Escobar is a bad idea. Josh Harrison got most of the PT at second, and he had a horrible first 30-45 days, possibly due to injury. After that, he was okay. In fact, he was about the same as Escobar with a few less homers. Escobar is another NLer well past 30 who will create a lot of negative posts on SoxTalk in 2023. Plus, he's expensive. I would rather play our rookies.

Is Wil Myers the guy who got hit in the head by a fly ball in the playoffs?

2023 MLB offseason signings and rumors thread
Not so with the Madrigal and McCann rumors. I don't think those two came from SoxTalk.

Those so-called Insiders would be better off if they read this board.

Danny Mendick to Mets - 1yr $1M
Then why sign him to a 3-year deal? The whole thing has stupid written all over it.

Jesse Rogers: Sox Sign Benintendi - 5yr / $75M
How's his arm? Seriously. I vaguely remember his making a really weak throw while with KC. Looked awful. I still like the signing, tho.

Chapelli is 21 today.

TA likes ominous tweet: The trade Anderson thread
Your double negatives aside, racism is not the reason. Agism would be closer to the truth. Old guys often don't like the forced and possibly rehearsed celebrations. That's all. Skin color not particularly relevant, IMO. Maybe it's your prism that is fucked up.

What happens to Crawford?

TA likes ominous tweet: The trade Anderson thread
Same here. Unnecessary, too. Routine bat flipping makes as much sense as a pitcher doing a series of back flips whenever he strikes out a hitter.

Sox sign Victor Reyes MiLB deal, ST invite
Did they actually say that? That they would bank rebuild money ......
-
Fire Rick Hahn
This one of Balta's better posts. Sox should get some sort of compensation for being stuck with Hahn.

Remember, the Pirates get an extra draft pick every year.
-
White Sox pick Nick Avila in Rule 5
Yes. He's probably better than a few already on the roster.

Does anyone here remember what other offers we had for Sale?
