After Kopech is dealt, there will be an opening.

Yeah why not.

Kevin Pillar is having a nice season

I went into this being surprised if they are able to trade him for anything so no, not worth it at all.

Not really hindsight as a lot of fans did not want him. No probably not worth it but signing him moved the needle in neither direction.

They're not getting a haul for 37-year old rental.

Well this year, we can't root for the draft pick. And no one has mentioned it being about draft picks. For me, I've just grown numb and don't care about the results. I want the decision makers at the top to be humiliated with as many losses as possible.

He was a free agent after they traded him. Could have signed him in the offseason though.

Agreed here. About not debuting until next year. Going to be another bad season.

I didn’t even realize he was gone

Eloy sucks.

DeLoach was sent down.

You want guys to get reps before coming back so it makes sense that, in baseball, guys go on a rehab assignment. I do get the thinking in that "if he's 100%, let him play at the MLB level" if the team is shitty anyway. But I don't think Luis is there yet.

Both are DH’s honestly.

Counterpoint: there’s a lot of bad to insert into the lineup.

Per Grifol, he’s going to miss ax extended period of time. Will be so happy when he’s gone.

Wouldn't be upset if they sent Vaughn down, played Sheets at 1B and then played Pham, Fletcher, DeLoach, Benintendi ? in the 3 OF spots and DH. Get Julks in against lefties since he is here. I guess when Robert comes back, you'd have to send down DeLoach or Fletch.

Yeah I'm not a fan of paying that over 3 years but if he was willing to do a team friendly deal that guarantees him some money (he does have an injury history) for about 5 years, I'd do it.

Thought this as soon as I saw he was DFA'd.

The time he said that a fly ball pitcher (on the White Sox) at Guaranteed Rate Field is a good thing still haunts me.

Eloy to IL, Sheets to DH, DeLoach in RF, Fletcher remaining on the bench? Oscar Colas: same age, also hits left-handed, has higher OPS. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/05/white-sox-promote-zach-deloach-mlb-debut-eloy-jimenez-injured-list.html

Crochet is a starter now. Vera has been starting games over parts of 4 seasons.

Yeah if he doesn’t get called up this injury, he has no chance here.

You have a 1B in RF, an infielder in the OF, and Pham who shouldn’t be in CF, in CF.

A starting pitcher who has thrown 70 innings over 4 years. Good riddance.
