I'm getting mad LaMarr Hoyt vibes from Kimbrel in the throwback uni!

Yermin is under contract with Big League Advance for a loan he took out with them earlier on in his career. It was documented in Real Sports, can't find the HBO link, but here's a write-up: https://www.southsidesox.com/2021/6/22/22545598/white-sox-yermin-mercedes-hbo-featured-on-hbos-real-sports. In these contracts, these athletes agree to give a percentage of their "total career earnings" for typically one large cash advance. I'm willing to bet this retirement fiasco is just a scheme to wiggle out of this, before coming back from retirement and cashing in.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Dec 9, 2017 -> 08:25 PM) Red Sox still linked to #WhiteSox slugger Jose Abreu, but keep an eye on Cardinals. @scotgregor: https://t.co/zObvTOxJTk https://twitter.com/dailyherald/status/939661213394280449 Wonder what key piece puts it over the edge for each team? Boston = Devers St. Louis = Reyes

Free Agents Hector Rondon Michael Pineda Jarrod Dyson Trades Abreu to STL for Carson Kelly, Jake Flaherty, Sandy Alcantara, & Jonathan Machado Garcia + Davidson to ARI for Pavin Smith & Anthony Banda Draft Nander De Sedas – SS Roll into the 2018 season with the best farm system in MLB – by a long shot – with strong competition in several key positions.

Viciedo to SEA for Tom Wilhelmsen and a low A prospect Danks + Thompson/Beck to LA for Crawford + $$$ Sign Brandon Beachy & Rickie Weeks

Decline on Floyd & Konerko...(hopefully Paulie just retires) Try to move Dunn & Danks (maybe could see Dunn moved but it's highly unlikely for both to be moved) Extend Sale, Beckham, & maybe Quintana /or Reed Sign Tim Lincecum & Delmon Young

That's such an underwhelming return for Rios. I don't have a problem if the Sox are calling this a salary dump, which it is, but please hold someone accountable. You can't keep making mistakes on top of other mistakes and hope your fanbase doesn't catch wind of your flawed organization.

Rios + cash to PIT for Hanson & Kingham Ramirez to STL for Martinez & Adams until tomorrow.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 09:58 PM) White Sox: Garcia, Middlebrooks+Allen Webster Red Sox: Peavy Tigers: Iglesias Would like that better.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Jul 28, 2013 -> 03:11 PM) @ChrisCotillo: Source: #WhiteSox have discussed Carlos Martinez, Kolten Wong, and Michael Wacha with the #Cardinals in potential Peavy/Ramirez deals. For a Peavy/Ramirez deal to STL, I can see this combo: Choose one of: Matt Adams Carlos Martinez Kolten Wong Michael Wacha Choose two of: Tyrell Jenkins John Gast Carson Kelly Michael Blazek Choose one of: Seth Blair Charlie Tilson James Ramsey Eric Fornataro Jordan Swagerty Tim Cooney Wong, Jenkins, Kelly, & Blair for Peavy/Ramirez would be my pick

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Dec 29, 2012 -> 09:16 PM) Kubel seems to make pretty good sense to me based on who's available. No reason why there's not room for him. If none of them got injured at all (very unlikely) and playing time was split exactly evenly between Konerko, Dunn, Rios, De Aza, Viciedo, and Kubel, that would be 135 starts per player. I agree, but at the right cost.

Flowers need sunlight to bloom. Say no to AJ, it's time to close that book.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Nov 29, 2012 -> 11:42 PM) Heard that a guy the Sox are considering as a Floyd replacement is a certain former 1st rounder that may be non-tendered by a division rival tomorrow... Chris Volstad? 1st Rounder in 2005, possibly dropped by KC.

Trade Floyd to MIL for Martin Maldonado & Mat Gamel Sign Brandon McCarthy, Youkillis, Mike Adams
