I’d rather just keep Eloy and hope for a bounce back than do that. If McCarthy is all they can get, you might as well just give Colas another chance at that point.

I’ve just accepted that it’s going to be the Braves and it will be Grissom, one or AJSS/Waldrep, and probably a lotto ticket. And then I will do mental gymnastics believing that it is a good return, even though they could have done better trading him elsewhere.

You know it’s a boring offseason when the 2005 White Sox are a topic of conversation.

Hopefully Yamamoto chooses in the next few days so we can finally get a resolution on this.

Yeah who cares about offense! It’s not like you need that to win any games or anything!

We have another month and a half of this? Good god.

Poop.

That is a lot for 1 year of expensive Glasnow so that probably helps the Sox as far as Cease’s asking price goes.

Braves must really be high on Kelenic.

PCA sucks. No thanks. If they deal with the Cubs I want Horton and Caissie.

Holding out for the right offer is the right thing to do in this situation but man this waiting period is frustrating.

I like feisty Caulfield. Brings an edge we haven’t seen on this board since Peavy44.

Any chance the Dodgers might include Sweeney in a package for Cease?

None of those names do much for me. Sox can do better trading him to someone else.

Need a new rumor here badly.

I wouldn’t say Stassi is a “good player” but yeah there isn’t much of a reason to complain about this.

They would become so irrelevant that there would actually be reason to believe they would leave for Nashville.

This is just a crazy take. If Ohtani came to the Cubs, the White Sox would become even more irrelevant than they already are. In fact it would probably cause them to have to move eventually because absolutely no kid would choose to root for the Sox and that becomes a factor down the line.

If Ohtani came to the Cubs, you might as well start calling the Sox the Nashville White Sox.

You want Ohtani to be a Cub which is equally insane.

WHAT???

Marte, Lowder, and Petty would be awesome but not sure if the Sox could pull that off.

I’m talking about their infielders. Where are guys like Norby and Ortiz going to play a year from now? They are completely blocked. I think they might even end up with excess outfielders, but their infield situation is ridiculously crowded at the moment.

They have so many position players who are blocked in AAA. How does staying the course instead of trading some of them for pitching help them?
