Avi Garcia tendered a $3 million contract
QUOTE (daggins @ Dec 2, 2016 -> 05:49 PM) People like to rag on Avi because he's terrible at baseball, but what they forget is that the White Sox are also terrible at baseball. This is great, have to give credit where credit is due

Players non-tendered
QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 2, 2016 -> 06:13 PM) Sox should jump on that. Castillo has good power. I agree, he couldn't be much worse than what we were trotting out there, don't know how he is defensively, but at least he can swing it a bit.

QUOTE (ypres @ Dec 1, 2016 -> 05:06 PM) How does Houston getting Encaracion help us? In theory, it would make one of their young hitters expendable and they have a need for a front-line SP.

White Sox Not Willing to Trade with Cubs
QUOTE (Ro Da Don @ Nov 29, 2016 -> 09:39 PM) Maybe this whole thing is being overblown. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/11/29/whi...l-some-context/ People overreacting??? Doesn't sound right.

White Sox Not Willing to Trade with Cubs
QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Nov 29, 2016 -> 08:03 PM) Uh, no he isn't...LOL..I have listened to Boars and Bernstein for years . I met Bernstein and had a good talk with him and no he isn't a "Sox fan." He and Boars have mocked the Sox for years and hate Ken Williams and Ken Harrelson. Show me evidence other than Bernstein or someone else simply claiming his is Sox fan. Have you seen him at a game? Have you seen him wearing a Sox hat around town? Heve you ever heard Boars & Bernstein have anything but snark to say about the White Sox? link? As have I, It's been mentioned numerous times on air. All the envidence you need for that is in their podcasts. Because you mock something doesn't necessarily mean that you aren't a fan of said thing being mocked. Hating KW or Hawk is pretty common on this board if you've read some of the past threads, so none of those posters are Sox fans?? what good do any of us have to really say about the state of the white sox in the last decade? There's not really a whole lot to go on at the current moment. Does someone have to scream from rooftops until they're lips turn blue that they're a sox fan to prove their fandom? Some people aren't the go-hard fanboys to wear gear all the time. This argument is dumb and doesn't have anything to do with the White Sox, which is what I'd rather talk about anyways . Young Danny B

White Sox Not Willing to Trade with Cubs
QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Nov 29, 2016 -> 05:48 PM) Bernstein isn't a white sox fan. Never has been and never will be. He is a sarcastic wise guyl though. If I am a GM on any team I do not want to deal with Epstein because he wins every trade and will not give up his best prospects and players. That's fine but I don't want to be on the losing end of a trade with the Cubs. I still don't know how they got Addison Russell and Jake Arrieta. for dregach. Yes, he is. This has been stated multiple times.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Nov 29, 2016 -> 04:24 PM) That move doesn't make any sense unless they really are looking to move Bregman for a TOR pitcher. You have 1B/DH/C between Encarnacion, Gattis, McCann, and Gurriel. He's a FA, which could make a trade for an frontline SP more likely if they're able to sign EE (cough cough, Sale or Q plz, cough).

Bleacher Report: Jose Quintana, not Chris Sale, is the most valuable o
QUOTE (raBBit @ Nov 22, 2016 -> 03:01 PM) I was told the Sox are planning on trading Sale and keeping Q. Makes sense, I don't really have a problem with keeping Q around for now. Somebody's going to have to lead the staff in 2017.

Frazier wants to stay, doesn't want Sox to trade Sale
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 21, 2016 -> 04:23 PM) I am all for taking on a bad deal or malcontent if it means improving the prospect return. The White Sox should absolutely be willing to take on guys like Pablo Sandoval, Yasiel Puig, or anyone else if the sending team is willing to include higher level prospects in order to take the player on. Yeah that's how I feel as well, especially if the remaining commitment is 1 to 2 years and the team "rebuilds" there's really no harm in it. I need the winter meetings to be here, all this speculation is killing me!

QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 21, 2016 -> 03:48 PM) ...do we take back headley? if it meant getting/was the difference between getting a Torres/Fraizer/Rutherford back in a deal then sign me up...Headley's not very good but he's versatile (me trying to talk myself into the idea)???

Frazier wants to stay, doesn't want Sox to trade Sale
QUOTE (Dunt @ Nov 18, 2016 -> 04:55 PM) They finished 16.5 games out of first in their division, what the f*** is this dude talking about? I wouldn't expect him to put the team on blast on the airwaves considering he stated he wants to stay here, but yeah "close" is definitely a reach....close to the bottom of the AL would be more accurate, maybe that's what he meant .
