If he had a Reynaldo Lopez-esque season, it's possible

The more I think about this, the more I like it. Lance Lynn has been a top 5 pitcher in the entire MLB the past 2 seasons. He is a bona fide #1 starter. This is a HUGE addition to the team. Our starting rotation is playoff caliber now. Very strong 1-3 pitchers. The Cubs traded Gleyber Torres for half a season of Chapman. THAT is an overpay. They would do the trade again if they could, too. Furthermore, it's possible the Sox could lock him up another year or two. He's old and he may want to take the guaranteed money.

At age 34, I wonder if Lynn would take a 1-2 year extension now or if he would gamble on another great year.

Has anybody even posted highlights yet? His fastball is his bread and butter, clearly. Still throwing 96 mph. Hopefully he can keep it that high at 34 years old. He's also obese.

This has the Fernando Tatis Jr trade written all over it. Dunning becomes Bieber, Lynn flops.

How would you all feel if they followed this up by signing Joc and Hendriks?

OP confirmed to be Not Steve Cishek. Book him, SS2K5

How much better can it get* Knowing the White Sox, the Ted Williams' frozen penis discussion might be the highlight of this off-season.

Because he is a cheap, mid-tier free agent on the wrong side of 30

This. I also expect Yoan to bounce back this year. I wouldn't be surprised if he posts an OBP similar to Grandal's. Moncada should be our 2-hole hitter.

Would you like to make the bet a little more interesting?

I don't buy it, unless he plays the OF. A DH is a poor area to spend cash. They need pitching and a RFer.

Not until 2023

They hired his brother in law/BFF and one of his other BFFs to make up for the cost difference though

It's such a shame that this happens. Much like Jerry Krause, Dick Allen clearly deserves to be in the HOF WHILE ALIVE. Such a shame it will have taken them dying to be elected.

Nimmo! Nimmo!

This isn't what I said. If we pay him the most, he will come here.

PS5 and the new Xbox are for plebs. You can play every game with people on other platforms on PC. You can get better bang for your buck even if you buy a prebuilt PC. I want the Sox to get a well built PC, not a PS5 or Xbox.

Where's Avery Weems at?

Welp, this coincides with Jimmy's article about Joc. We can only hope they sign Joc and get another pitcher...

Jeff Passan carrying water for owner Jerry Reinsdorf. Sad!

This is great. Take my like, even though it threatens my chances of winning "poster of the day" for most liked content. Remember to hit the heart symbol on the bottom right corner of my post if you enjoyed the content or found it thoughtful. Thanks folks.

No, they froze his wang too.

This is false. I considered it this year, but never made the actual switch.
