Jose's OPS is .771 Tampa Bay added a RH IB bat with an OPS of .707. I think Abreu was only available for prospects that mattered and teams passed.

Seems as though Jesus Sanchez was available. Probably not for Jose, but perhaps Jose and Colome. That is a deal I for sure would have done. Edited August 2, 20196 yr by ChiSox59

The Rays have too many pitching issues at present to mortgage the future on this season...and they know Colome better than the Sox, but, most of all, they’re not an organization that can afford to pay relievers $15 million over 1 1/2 seasons.

Out of the hours and hours I’ve been listening, I haven’t heard the White Sox mentioned at all. The irrelevancy is what kills me as a fan. No one cares. No one talks about us. I see I have not missed much, but glad to be signed back in again.

This is the biggest drawback of a rebuild. Nothing the team does matters much until it at least goes over the .500 mark. We care about the team's future, but even the most loyal fan finds the club unwatchable at times. As I said in another post, the Sox were in no position to be active at the trade deadline. Why should anyone talk about them in that context?
