might as well throw in Gio Gonzalez into that mix as well.

good point. LOL

i sometimes HATE coming to this board and read people talk shit about our guys. Giolito has found something positive in his pitching, he's having success with it, so i just don't understand why Sox fans can't be happy about it and support what he's accomplished since coming back from the hamstring injury. i understand how difficult it is to be a Sox fan, but a lot of you SERIOUSLY need therapy. ?

agreed. i just don't think he's THE ace we need to anchor this pitching staff for the future. and if he's not then, then he's expendable imo.

with Rodon going down, for what i'm guessing is the rest of the season, does it make sense at this point for the the Sox to just add a veteran to the rotation like Keuchel after the June draft? i feel like we're just treading water again with all of these injuries.

love how bi-polar this team has been so far this season. of course i turned the game off after the top of the 8th and they come back. happy to see them stick it out and steal another walk-off win.

i'm not digging through 32 pages of comments, but i'm sure someone already asked - why did Renteria not go with Herrera in the 8th?

Gio to sign with the Yanks on a $3M deal... do we not have $3M in the coffers? seems like Gio is a low risk, high return type of player at this point... hmmm...

well worth the money if you base it off what Machado and Harper just got. Trout is way better than both of them.

what color were his mitts during his time with BAL and LA...?

but a 31 year old pitcher just coming off a 1-year deal with 2.62 WAR is going to get more than $13M

i would love to have Keuchel in our rotation, but i don't see us acquiring him. he made $13M last season and i just don't see us spending anywhere near that to sign him.

bring Gio back already. please and thank you.

if the "market" (or lack thereof) this year dictates it, why not? he'll still get a big contract this season and still be worth over $200M next season and may have more suitors next season. *shrurgs*

OR the more likely MM signs a 1-year deal with someone and tries his hand at the market next season in hopes that it's better.

would LOVE to hear Paulie call games for us if he were interested in the job.

this.

i think he has a great baseball voice, he just needs to temper some of the b.s. about his toys and giveaways and sometimes concede the arguments he tends to get into with Stoney.

THIS is exactly how i feel when i hear them interact with one another.

maybe i'm alone but i'm not a fan of Benetti... dude talks WAY too much. sometimes silence is great.

what a shit show this is becoming. i mean i care about the team, but this is becoming such a turn-off to sports in general. squabbling over money that these kids aren't even going to be able to spend in a lifetime.

but his trusted source contradicts Passan's report... WHO DO WE TRUST?!

"sources" ?

god i hope so. because i find it EXTREMELY difficult to believe the Sox only offered $175M and someone out there should be held responsible for posting these lies. or maybe the White Sox are setting a new standard and starting a new trend to ensure that these crazy contracts stop getting so high.
