Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread

Featured Replies

So Blue Jays and Cardinals have signed starters today.  Either could possibly still be in on Ryu or Keuchel, but less likely.

    They aren’t. Their fans are just morons who don’t know anything about baseball.

    The Sox aren’t pulling Moncada or Madrigal late in the game for a defensive replacement unless it’s an absolute blowout.  Also, his ability to switch hit is not valuable when he’s not good from either

Didn't know where to post this, but for whatever reason the website doesn't work - at all - on my cell phone anymore. It's a regular old iPhone so pretty common. No idea why. Works fine on my laptop. I assumed the site was down for the last couple weeks until today. Anyone else have this problem?

MLB Trade Rumors decided to write a story based on Heymans tweet earlier:
https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/12/latest-on-james-mccann.html

 

Think it means anything?

I think the Sox simply don’t want Collins as the primary backup, so they’re not going to trade McCann for scraps just because they signed Grandal. McCann has minimal trade value, so why not just keep him instead of acquiring a piece that will never matter? Grandal spending more time than he had at DH and 1B could help him stay fresh late in the year when he’s struggled. 

Is it me or does Gerrit Cole look like a d***** clean shaven and yankee pinstripes.  looks awkward. like Giambi when he signed

Biggest Yankee makeover of all time was Johnny Damon.

My guess is Braun/Smoak platoon at 1B with Garcia, Cain and Yelich in OF

King Felix news.  Sox fan replies are not surprising.

When I think of King Felix and the Sox, my mind wander to another great pitcher with the Sox past him prime...Steve Carlton and how awful and sad I remember that being.  So then I looked back at his stats and saw that Carlton actually started 10 games for the Sox and had a 3.69 ERA and thought "hey I'll take a flyer on that" ?

That twitter chain just shows how miserable White Sox fans are.

On twitter, they honestly appear to be the most miserable group of fans in professional sports and it's nauseating to read.

It’s so toxic, and it’s a shame that any tweet relating to the Sox gets derailed

Honestly, I stay away from twitter for the most part...it gets toxic enough around here sometimes.

Cashman was on MLB Network yesterday talking about the Cole signing. He used phrases such as (and I'm paraphrasing here) "Ownership wanted to do this for the fans." "Ownership is committed to winning at all costs." "We know there is significant risk in this contract, but it takes risks to win championships."

And so on. The White Sox cant be the Yankees.. but they aren't even one tenth of the Yankees. The Yankees are the deer you just ran over with your car, the Sox are a fly you ran into.

The Sox have built this reality that they live in. Is Sox Twitter too toxic? Tough shit, maybe they should stop being such a risk adverse piece of garbage franchise and give the fans something to be excited about.

Smoak nothing exciting, but super cheap deal.  $4M in 2020 with a $1M buyout on a $5.5M team option for 21.

Every GM says that exact same thing every chance they have. Yankee fans have been b****ing about how cheap Hal is for like 5 years now.

Except not all GMs back it up with big free agent signings.

Difference here is the words actually get backed up:)
