Guessing he's more of an insurance policy

This is a move for that (it was rumored a few weeks/month ago that this would happen).

January 23, 20197 yr 1 minute ago, Chicago White Sox said: $1.5M? Are you serious? $1.5M base, incentives up to $5M. Wow - I know both of us really like Pomeranz for this team. Just don't get why we wouldn't gamble on something this cheap. Sox seem pretty content in rolling with one Banuelos/Covey/Stephens/Adams for the 5th spot.

If a guy is trying to re-establish himself, pitching in the NL in SF is far more desirable than pitching in the bandbox on the South Side vs. AL opponents.

That is more than likely a recipe for disaster.

January 23, 20197 yr That incredibly low dollar amount also indicates that there weren't very many teams who thought he had much in the tank.
