November 30, 20187 yr Which means Jose Abreu was also tendered, but it was so obvious it wasn't even news...
November 30, 20187 yr I like it? Or I don't? I'm not sure. I always said Avi was like a hot-ex girlfriend who was a bit crazy. When you think you were done with her she'd reel you back in. Every time I hated Avi he'd go on a mini run or do something like 2 years ago. And then follow it up with his normal junk. But then ride a hot streak again.. I think it's good to move on and delete him from all social media and my phone. Undoubedtly he'll marry onto the Astros or Indians or something and have a ton of success and be rich. I'll be upset. Such is life with Avi Garcia, the hot ex girlfriend.

November 30, 20187 yr I honestly find this to be nuts unless the Sox think his medicals are no good. You have at least 1 corner outfield spot that is a gaping hole at this point.

November 30, 20187 yr As the OG Avi hater, literally since the Peavy trade thread, this has been a long time coming for me. That said, even I can see the logic in giving him this last year to see if he gets hot and is tradeable, to salvage SOMETHING from the frustrating dumpster fire that was his time here. To me, this means that the Sox aren’t terribly confident about the health of his knee, or that they have plans for that 8 million bucks. Edited November 30, 20187 yr by Eminor3rd

You were definitely the president of that club. With that said, I'll miss Avi solely because that dude gave it his all on the field. I'll never question his work ethic.
November 30, 20187 yr Is it no longer the case that you're basically barred from signing your non-tendered guys until after opening day?

November 30, 20187 yr I'll miss Avi. A team that has their players sell out for power like Toronto should go after him.

November 30, 20187 yr Yes. It is a 100 loss team. A back up catcher who can't catch is gone. A part time DH who can't make contact is gone. And Avi Garcia who in 5 years has exactly a 0.0 fWAR for 4 of them is told to scram. White Sox fans have no reason to complain unless they really enjoy sucking.
