MLB Trade Rumors claim to have confirmed it’s a MiLB deal.

Didn’t see this anywhere, but he’s apparently with the Sox now, though there isn’t any confirmation anywhere. He’s got in his bio “Chicago White Sox,” and his wife posted an image of their little girl wearing a Sox shirt. I guess this is a MLB deal?

Was he the guy who said they showed him advanced swing data when they were checking in on him?

Cespedes is likely a 4th OF if he ever makes the majors but his bat is downright atrocious and right now I don’t see it playing in the majors. I don’t think we ever see Veras advance beyond AA. Lack of innings, way to many walks and he’s supposedly had a velo drop.

Am I nuts or do the Sox still need to get rid of someone? I count 41 on the 40-Man roster even with the Liam transfer.

Just another example of the classic JR completely lucking into a great player only for his "just good enough" mentality to take over. Everything this guy is involved in is a giant Fugazi or smoke and mirrors show.

None. Case in point, Bulls have barely sniffed success since he left.

I think they've made the decision to market the quiet, keeps to himself, and "safe" player that isn't going to sleep in the clubhouse during games, slap the s%*# out of the team's SS, enjoy the late-night party life in South Bend, or start raking up the baby mommas. What the worst he can do? Throw a fish back into a lake without removing the fish hook?

Good to know! That probably explains it.

Jose Urena was signed and assigned to Charlotte. John Parke was released.

I’m more shocked he hasn’t opted out of his deal. His performance totally warrants a shot from someone.

I hate to even put this out there, but I don't like this idea, but I wonder if he was involved in the Salvador Perez discussions.

This is great. I don't believe a word Hahn says. Don't forget this guy is a lawyer first and foremost. I'd love to hear someone followup on the accountability question and ask Hahn to DEFINE what accountability means. They clearly don't have an understanding of how when you suck at your job, you deserve to get fired.

Please no. I can't stand DeRosa. We did the whole unwritten rules/old school mentality with Tony. We don't need that crap again.

Oh there are. Trust me on that. Hahn is a bigger scumbag than people realize.

Who in their right mind quits a job with zero accountability for your actions? You can literally do anything you want.

This report is nothing new to us, it’s great that it’s finally being aired out in public. Push this straight into the face of this FO and let them drown in their incompetence. The more lack of action this organization makes, the more asinine and moronic JR looks nationally. He deserves to be treated like the laughing stock of an owner that he is.

Wonder what Jose thinks of his teammate Josh Naylor then.

I like this move. Kid had a ton of potential few years back. Maybe he can become a cheap option for next season.

He already pitched last week and was lit up.

f*** these idiots.

Me too. Goes from the contending Dodgers to this shitshow.

I don’t believe this. There is zero benefit or logic to keeping someone employed if you know you are going to fire someone. And if that’s how Jerry chooses to operate then he’s an even worse, brain-dead sack of meat than I thought before.

Does anyone get the impression that the FO made it a focus to bring in more pitching this go-around than when the rebuild first began? It feels like there’s more SP options than last time. Maybe that’s because the farm already had some guys in Schultz, Mena, Cannon, Burke, and Thompson?
