    Nope. It's all about expectations coming in. They are rebuilding so you expect the early losses.
  2. Bob Sacamano
    Right. But with Rodon, you likely also have to wait until his last year. As a Boras client, he will gamble on himself and his health before signing a extension of any kind. Makes no sense for him not to wait.
  3. Bob Sacamano
    Oh he signed an extension alright. Would argue that it is not team friendly, however. The team still has to pay to retain his clients (with his injury history, one can argue it was an overpay).
  4. Bob Sacamano
    The counter-argument is "you don't trade Abreu for a buy-low" but Jose hasn't been hitting and is barely a 1B so who knows really.
  5. Bob Sacamano
    Both of these.
  6. Bob Sacamano
    My point is the Sox aren't involved in every two team deal. It's always, "If this team trades for Player A, I wonder if Player B will go to the White Sox," drawing a correlation out of nothing.
  7. Bob Sacamano
    Why does everyone on here jump to the conclusion that the Sox are somehow a part of every deal in some way?
  8. Bob Sacamano
    We want them to do well but its more likely they struggle their first time up in the majors (regards to Kopech, Stephens, Eloy, etc.). And as someone said, trading off a few relievers will make the pen awful.
  9. Bob Sacamano
    Not really. Those guys along with Rodon can finish strong and we can still finish poorly overall. The bullpen and others starters can suck.
  10. Bob Sacamano
    Actually, there were a lot of people on here saying he could be next Kahnle.
  11. Bob Sacamano
    He'll be playing whatever position the team that pays him the most tells him to play next year.

    I sat through a 20-1, weekday May/June game against the Twins in a year we were supposed to be good. Definitely the worst for me. Also, Jake Peavy rejected a trade to the Sox that very day.
  13. Bob Sacamano
    Not all of those are examples of what is being discussed here. Just the ones with the same day extension and the extension window before trade (Santana). The scenario is a 48-hour window like the Santana deal.
  14. Bob Sacamano
    Yeah that's usually how it works. A deal contingent on extension. Theres only a couple of these I remember happening in the off-season.
  15. Bob Sacamano
    You don't really see that happen mid-season. At least I can't remember a time. The only time I could ever see that allowed is if the negotiation window is over the all-star break and the player is off all 4 days.
  16. Bob Sacamano
    It definitely doesn't happen mid-season for obvious reasons but off-season is possible for that type of move.
  17. Bob Sacamano
    You could pick up the option and deal him. Or, in this proposed scenario, Garcia is a free agent after 19 so you keep Marte anyway.
  18. Bob Sacamano
    Ah I thought it was Ron's idea originally months ago. My bad.
  19. Bob Sacamano
    Of course Greg would be the one to agree with the idea of moving Tim to catcher.
  20. Bob Sacamano
    Not everything is reported. Look at how how wide open our pen was. There's no way they didn't check on every reliever with past success, recent struggles.
  21. Bob Sacamano
    You mean to tell me he'd want to pitch on the team that just won the world series? Crazy.
  22. Bob Sacamano
    Who's to say they didn't try?
  23. Bob Sacamano
    A CG might end up being an 8-inning loss.
  24. Bob Sacamano
    Wow you've completely flipped in the matter of like 2 days.
  25. Bob Sacamano
    He's the reason I refuse to buy anymore jerseys with a player's name on the back of it (unless it is a legend or HoF player: Beuehrle, Thomas, Konerko, anyone from 05 you can rationalize, etc.).
