Does this mean we will no longer hear "Cocaine" as a walk up song?

Agreed. I truly enjoyed the WTF moment when my phone alerted me of the Grandal signing. They do better more under the radar...but then again maybe that will be another one for Rick to blow up..."The White Sox will never be seriously linked to a player on twitter and then sign him"

One could argue Moncada>Machado and hopefully we soon see that Madrigal>Yolmer

Well said. I am very excited they got it done quickly. I can't wait to see what's next.

But the water smells funny and I don't know how deep it is.

IMHO, It would be amusing to see Gio Gonzalez actually pitch for the White Sox after trading him away so many times.

Since Grandal was so under the radar, any chance the Sox have put offers on the table for Cole or Strasburg, in addition to Wheeler?

I believe you, I was talking about myself actually. I was convinced he was the answer last year. In retrospect, we are probably better to have lost out on him.

Revisionist history in 3-2-1....I never wanted Machado anyways.

What if you are voted teacher of the year in years 2-4? BTW I love the Soxtalk dedication with how late/early it is over there!!

Is there a 6th year option on that?

I have the memory of a good closer....forget about last offseason...sign Wheeler soon and I will break out in a happy dance. Although this move was so under the radar that I have no clue what they are going to do next. But I am very excited to find out.

Did Rick send over video for Zack Wheeler?

Uncle Jerry heard you wanted a nice birthday present.

Nice to basically hear..."We really like Yasmani...so we signed him"

Obviously the $ will be spent is much better than "unprecedented financial flexibility"

?

When's the last time a reigning batting champ batted 9th? I'm not being critical, I'm just saying WOW!!!!

I'm sure there are plenty of posters here willing to help with that hat...pass me the salt, I'm in!!!

Wow, that would be a fun lineup to watch, especially considering adding Robert and Madrigal. Are the days of 7-9 in the lineup being near automatic outs coming to an end?

Do we have to wait until Uncle Jerry stops hyperventilating before we sign another free agent?

I'm good with a short term free agent fix out in RF because I think one of our minor leaguers will step up soon. Use that free agent $ that will be spent (I know there is more of it) on pitching.

While we are at it...give Steve that extra year Brooks and get him done too

Are you rooting for Puig for RF?

I agree Jack!!! Let's have a big exciting news conference with the new battery mates!!!
