At this point, which relievers? I'm sure they're not just going to give the guy away for Jimmy Lambert, ha

Roster Resource currently lists the bullpen as this: I would say Touki is the long-man and Barlow is in the pen instead of Crochet. Edit: damn, image did not post. Here's the link: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/white-sox

So that just leaves Oakland and Sox as only teams to not sign anyone to a $100M+ deal?

As one of the hand wringers, thank god.

People in the Cease thread were saying we had enough pitching (it's not true) and that's why we should be targeting bats as first 1-2 or 3 pieces in a Cease deal.

If they want to go with someone with experience, I guess maybe Barlow?

I like this move more if Benintendi wasn’t on the roster.

Speaking of: https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/02/dodgers-looked-into-trades-for-shane-bieber-jesus-luzardo.html You could probably assume Cease as well.

He’s gotta be the backup IF at this point right? He could steal at bats away easily.

I like both of these moves. Haven’t said that much this offseason.

Got another lefty who hit good last year.

I think he’ll be parked in AAA until he goes to Japan or some s%*#.

I’ve been thinking they will. No idea obviously but I’ve felt a 2 year deal at the start of ST so they can 60-day IL him right away.

Yeah this is guy is done here.

So him or Deloach as starter in RF? Man it sucks Benintendi is on the roster haha

A platoon with Pillar in RF. Wouldn’t mind Phillips still making it over Sheets.

They’re not going to spend much more, if any.

Right. If it’s not Colas, which seems like it will 100% not be, it’s one of these guys.

Was going to say, most teams have had an underwhelming offseason, Dodgers and Braves. Am I missing any other obvious ones?

Just like every other signing for the most part

“That was then. This is now.”

Yeah that's kind of what I meant. Not saying go out and sign stars (well, because they don't).

Well, yeah. That's more what I meant. Better 1-2 year deal type guys.

As soon as they were locked into not picking higher than 10th, they should have committed to spending.

Or Eloy...
