    If I was a guy like Moose I'd be like "damn if I played in the 1970's everyone would want me . I hit the most HR's and RBI's of my career the last 2 years and nobody wants me."

  • I feared going into this offseason and the Sox would whiff like the Bulls in 2010 and then try to sell a mediocre signing as great. It's obviously just speculation at this point but... Moustakas

Not an option Hahn

Puke

This would be peak White Sox, but hey lefty power bat HRs baby!!

Well we aren’t missing on Machado sooooo.....

Why aren't the Yankees mentioned in that tweet?

They already have a power hitting 3b and a hole at SS for this year.

Imagine because they're set on the left side of their infield without Machado

This screams leverage over MM to try to speed the process up.

Yankees don't need him. They've got Andujar at 3B.

Which is exactly why them chasing MM is so silly to begin with. Also, it's good to be back...my account KidMcCarthy from over 14 years ago was not able to be recovered it appears. 

Any owner not giving their front office enough payroll flexibility to sign *Mike Moutakas* deserves to be scorned.

Well, Manny > Andujar > Moose. And they'd be able to deal Andujar for pitching or move him to 1B. Plus, they're trying to get Manny on their terms. They could get him if they really wanted him.

 Agreed. But pitching should be their top priority. Their infield is pretty dang solid. They are projected to win like 98 games after winning 100 last year. Crazy.

Without reading farther than this post I'll just say you probably derive much joy from stirring the pot with this.

This tweet only makes sense if Machado is going to the Yankees and it will be announced shortly.

Welcome back. You must be rusty . I hope you realize that Manny Machado and Mike Moustaskas are both MM .

An owner giving the FO money to sign moustakas deserves to be scorned.

That's not really fair, he's not a bad player, if your team has a gaping hole at 3b he's a solid player and he can probably DH and play 1b sometimes and be a pretty good 5th or 6th hitter. Out of last year's playoff teams he'd dramatically outperform what Boston got at 3b for example, due to injury in no small part. If someone like the Angels wanted to keep trying to win next year, he'd be a huge upgrade at that position. 

The problem is - he's not all that much better than Yolmer. Going from Engel and Yolmer to Jay and Moustakas might well have been enough for us to get to 63 wins last year.

Kinda screams agent trying to position his player as option b doesn’t it?

mmm hmmm

 

 

;)

If we can't land Machado, I would like to see the Sox add Moose and Pollock. Maybe lock in another starter as well.
