Seems like alot of folks are putting Hicks in bullpen. Tho plus is Sox blowing past the 20 million from Robert. Also have to clear 3 spots on roster now

So is Hicks the starter or reliever?

I know that but they have extra what we need in outfielders and we extra infielders and catchers they need.

Would rather be trading to get one of their outfielders than the pitching they have.

Also was worse as a reliever last year than a starter

Really dont know how he can be counted on as a starter anymore. If for some reason hes being involved in talks with white sox, it has to be a bullpen piece but again they need outfield and starting pitching more. Trading any little value we have again a possible starter when there is so much free agents is poor use of goods.

Probably because its alot of money for what's left

With as much pitching still out there really don't understand trading what little we have in value. Still think signing a pitcher is better. Outfield market is way thinner which I could see a trade for.

Lee ain't getting you that much back unless a throw in. Sosa and quero are pretty much blocked. Lee could move to back up if its quero.

Sox are already looking at a glut of infielders, do they start looking at trading some to fill other needs? Sosa is definitely getting to be odd man out. Vargas potentially too. Getz has already said to be looking at trades. You have Sosa, Montgomery, meidroth, Baldwin, Vargas, Acuna, and Murakami at major league level. Antonacci, Carlson, bonemer, and Roch hopefully drafted. DH is going to be rotated with benintendi and catchers until they decide to probably move quero.

Jerry's so cheap, he didn't want to pay the buyout so they picked up the option and was able to swindle some team to take lubob and his full salary for a couple bags of balls with players attached to them. Sounds like a win for uncle Jerry.

https://www.mlb.com/news/tatsuya-imai-kazuma-okamoto-meeting-mlb-teams A report from Yahoo Japan indicated the White Sox were emerging as contenders for Imai, though Feinsand reported that Chicago is a longshot to ink the righty. The White Sox have already landed one marquee Japanese player this offseason, signing 25-year-old slugger and two-time NPB MVP Munetaka Murakami to a two-year deal on Dec. 21. The Yahoo Japan report also mentioned the Yankees and Phillies as teams in the running for Imai.
