How many left handed starters will the White Sox see this year?
29.1% of SP’s in MLB in 2019 were lefties. That’s 47 games over a full regular season. Probably somewhere around there. so 47-0 with those. Just have to go 53-62 against righties and boom 100 wins.

MLB 2020-21 off season catch all
Psychologically probably isn’t the best feeling, but likely hasn’t made much impact on his life with it being the off-season. With Spring Training approaching hopefully he settles in somewhere, because this is where is can get disruptive.

Sox signed RHP Alejandro Mateo. Minor league filler.

Did We Go Cheap Not Signing Another Bat?
Yes

2021 Super Bowl LV Chiefs v Bucs
Couldn’t give less of a shit about the game, just happy to see the pride of parkdale doing the halftime show.

Did We Go Cheap Not Signing Another Bat?
If the question starts with “did we go cheap...” and “we” means “white Sox” the answer is “probably”

Hector wrong. Again. - Cruz back with Min
Blue Jays don’t need a dh. Unless they can convert excess OF into an arm, they’ll be rotating their outfielders. I was hoping to have a similar scenario for the Sox, but isn’t looking likely.

Jameson Taillon traded to Yankees
Pirates have a fantastic history, better than ours. But come on man...imagine being a die hard pirates fan right now. Must be torture. I feel for them, that’s all I’m saying.

Jameson Taillon traded to Yankees
Being a sox fan feels hard sometimes. Imagine being a pirates fan. Man, gotta feel for those guys. I’m a taillon fan so I’d like to add him to the mix, but as always depends on the cost. He isn’t really what we need right now, which is dependable innings.

Lucky for him the other team wasn’t interested.

Dodgers sign Bauer (3/102, opt-outs, 40-45-17)
I wouldn’t be shocked if he doesn’t have any concrete offers and just conversations.

the old Corbin Burnes thread, we have a new Burnes thread
I worked in the blue Jays front office in 2009. Harry Einbinder had an office to my left. Kevin Briand was across the hall. And, no joke, paul Beeston shared a wall on the right. At no point were the white Sox serious suitors for halladay and blue Jays scouts were bearish on beckham.

I have a hard time believing there’s reachable middle ground on what the brewers want and what the Sox are willing to part with. It’s fun to deliberate in the boring times of the off-season, but let’s get a (realistic) starter and a backup catcher.

Twins probably going to sign rosenthal or some other good rp. but, really....nothing he said can’t be pieced together by anyone who follows the game closely.

Garrett Richards to Boston, 1 year $10 million.
“Can’t we sign a starter who is always healthy and good for next to nothing?!” come on

I don’t understand what’s so hard to understand. You pay him accordingly. If he wasn’t hurt all the time he’d make bank...

Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
Sorry fellas not sure what I did wrong here.

The difference is piazza hit the snot out of the ball. And grandal is a good catcher. It’s a bad comp by a bad evaluator or talent.- TA Switches Agents
Wouldn’t be shocked if he renegotiated his contract at some point. - Sox sign Hendriks: 3/$39M - 4th year optional with $15M buyout
