Clarkin?

I’ve definitely done a 180 on Adolfo the past 2 seasons. Really hope he’s able to contribute when it comes time to compete. His hard work shows.

I’d offer 8/$260M, front load the 1st two years to be around or just under $40M/year, and offer enough incentives/performance kickers that bumps to total value to $300. Over the course of the deal. Get it done Hahn!

This is all true, it’s their shtick and they have every right to be that way. I do think they do need to dumb it down just a bit though if they want to be taken seriously as a Chicago sports outlet. Good luck landing any Bears interviews with rants like that. There’s certain things you should and should not record yourself saying. Be mad and upset, but be smart about it. The less you look like Chris Russo and Dan Clark the better.

Absolutely this ^^^

Plus the 40 is full and no corresponding move was made.

Remember the name. Can't imagine we'll see him do much, but here's to some success for his feel-good story. Maybe Fry can give him advice.

A lot of team this year ran with 13 pitchers.

Really hope that's true. I can't see the Yankees bowing out of the sweepstakes though.

I believe Eloy's arm is questionable/mediocre. Avi has a cannon. Probably why Eloy doesn't profile for RF anymore.

Great listen, A+ interview. Really thought out interesting questions and a much needed break from the Harpchado madness.

He had FB velocity drop? I was unaware of that. Thought his stats were due to injuries he had last year. That's a little more problematic. Ottavino must be asking for the moon.

Yea, I believe so. But isn't that a different situation? Hermanson's back exploded and Takatsu was toast. Sox didn't really have a choice other than closer by committee and Jenks ran away with it.

Herrera wouldn't be a terrible signing, but his massive drop in K/9 is a little alarming. Still only 29 though.

I'd be fine with it if it is reasonable. He has some red flags, but it wouldn't be the worst thing to happen. Edit: NVM. I didn't realize he has a qualifying offer attached to him. Screw that.

I would add Adam Warren to that list too.

So we’re a bunch of assholes because we got excited about a Machado rumor? What does the LA D-bag think of the Yankee fans that were ready to burn down the damn city with their negativity? They assholes too?

Colome is 3 years younger and theoretically has much more left in the tank. I think it comes down to if you think a 33 year old Ottavino had a career year or finally figured it out. Ottavino would be a riskier move. Despite that, I still want him, hahahah

If you were about to board a plane to sign a $200-300M deal, you would’t be flying coach. What a weird attempt for attention from a random twitter guy.

Yep, Lorenzo attempting to get higher bids seems more realistic.

I doubt David Robertson was the sole person responsible for not dishing out the shares. Why are none of the other players being held accountable? Were they not a part of the decision as well? Really seems like the team was trying to get back at some of the staff by sticking it to them.

I think you are right. Wouldn’t be surprised. He’s been known to do that.

Weird. That seems complete opposite of what I would have expected out of him. At his first Sox Fest appearance shortly after he signed, he bought a kid a Sox jersey. Seemed like a class act. There has to be something more to this than one player holding court over where the shares went.

Yep. I think people also need to remember WSD is also a homer fan, so he is going to be very positive towards their chances, but I do think he has legit sources. I’ll take it either way! Same with Bucket. When he opens his mouth, you best listen.
