Cease To Padres per Passan
For everyone but Dylan Cease.

Player Development Staff
Bazzana is the prize Oregon State guy this year. Chances are he’s gone by the time the Sox pick, but they could, and probably will, do worse.

Max Stassi Acquired
It’s being reported as “back up catcher to Korey Lee.” They’re going to lose a whole lotta games.

Max Stassi Acquired
They have picked a lane. They are developing pitching and supporting those pitchers with defense. I believe they are going to lose like 110 games, but at least they have picked a lane.

Cease To Padres per Passan
I think Elias came up in Houston where they gave up crap to get both Verlander and Cole from teams looking to dump payroll. Sox don’t need salary relief, they need players. I bet Cease ends up anywhere but Baltimore.

2024 White Sox Top 10 Prospects
Absolutely. If Jacob Gonzalez hits, they’ll find a place to put him. If he doesn’t hit, I am not sure he has another tool to even be a utility guy.

Ohtani Watch: Dodgers sign - 700M over 10yrs
10 Eric Feddes or 1 Ohtani?

2024 White Sox Top 10 Prospects
I think it is a stretch to call a guy who hit .207 “hit over power.” That is until you see the .261 slug.

Edgar Navarro outrighted
He cleared waivers so... forgotten, not gone.

Reds sign Jeimer Candelario to $45M/3 year deal
Straight up swap for Candelario. I actually think he has a chance to be good for the Nats Cincy jerked him around his entire career. Leave him in one spot defensively and give him some AB’s he might surprise.

Didn’t Senzel get released?

Grifol speaks ...
Pedro believes Chemistry is real and so do I. That’s why I’m going to spend most of this baseball season making meth.

Yankees acquire Juan Soto in trade with Padres
Change title. Soto was acquired with Grisham, not for Grisham.

Morosi linked Whit to White Sox in Dec23
Morosi isn’t saying he heard something. He’s saying it makes sense. I would argue that a retooling team trying to cut payroll should not try to get the last productive year out of Whit Merrifield for like $10 mil, but this is so White Sox.

Pirates land Gonzales from Braves
So… a salary dump of the salary dump.

Yankees acquire Alex Verdugo
Better the Yanks than us.

2024 - MLB Draft Thread
Mike Sirota would go great with Mike Soroka, and Mike Sirotka

Sox Sign Erick Fedde - 2 years, $15 million
Wow. That is a big gurantee for a guy who has never been successful in mlb. But probably worth the risk.

MLB 2024 Draft Lottery - Sox pick #5
2 biggest winners of this stupid lottery -- Twins and Cleveland. Biggest losers: A's, Nats, Sox.

MLB 2024 Draft Lottery - Sox pick #5
This rule sucks so hard for the Sox.

MLB 2024 Draft Lottery - Sox pick #5
Didn't Cleveland move into the top 6 as well?

MLB 2024 Draft Lottery - Sox pick #5
This is some bad TV. MLB just doesn't seem all that professional compared to ESPN. Also, it's sort of like watching a televised Bingo league.

Morosi: Wouldn’t be surprised if Robert is traded

10 for your personal Hall of Shame
I actually don't have a bottom 10. There are guys I was glad exited the team (Keppinger, Leury) but I agree with Gordon Beckham -- you gotta give props to anyone who had a dream and reached the majors. It's really hard to get there. I met a guy once who played at Wrigley Field with the Expos working at a resort in AZ. Years later, he felt it validated all the effort he put in. Also, I didn't want the entire bottom 10 to be on this year's team and they would've been.

Morosi: Wouldn’t be surprised if Robert is traded
I think Morosi is hunting controversy/clicks. Robert’s surplus value is currently more than some teams’ entire farm systems.
