The 2022 White Sox: A seat at the table

Gallo for cash considerations. Seriously, the guy looks more like a DFA candidate than trade candidate.

Just an awful signing.

I know he just grounded out, but any reason why Vaughn was bumped down to 6th?

I don't see them making a splash but also don't see them standing pat. Middle reliever and Q (or another back end arm) for a small price is what I'm kind of expecting.

The potential extra year of Pollock + Yankees being heavily right-handed makes it seem like not a fit. Not a one-for-one deal anyway.

Would not trust this coaching staff.

Yeah it would have to be for either Soto (2 years of control) or Reynolds (3+).

A team could have him do that in the minors though so he would not accrue any service time.

Yeah those look about right. But please no to Gallo.

Just not enough depth to pull it off. Not enough top talent. If Sox make a trade with the Nats, it’s going to hurt.

5.5 seasons but agreed. And trading other young guys on top of it.

They want 4-5 top prospects/players with low service time (think 5+ years of control).

Fair take

For the currently free agent Justin Upton?

And then didn't Jimmy chime in saying he heard the same? Or was it Dave responding to Jimmy after Jimmy posted it?

Hopefully he comes back and is somewhere in the middle of second half 2021 and first half 2022. I wouldn’t expect his numbers to be as good as last year but better than he’s been the first half of this year.

And he's only thrown like 3 innings professionally. He's basically the Cuban Matt Davidson.

Yeaaaaah they’re not trading for Soto guys. You can bet on that.

Not exactly the kind of move the Sox would make either to be honest.

Agreed

I just don’t think it would scare many teams away, including Corbin that is. Just lowers price for said teams with better farms. Dodgers would be fine.

What rumored deal?

Homer for the first time

Yeah, that’s not getting it done.
