You are on top of things as usual. Were these higher or lower than expected ? I would imagine it's negligible either way.

I knew it was going to be that much, but god that's a lot of money for Colome.

These are the projections from MLB Trade Rumors from back in Oct.

 

White Sox 

  • Alex Colome (5.118) – $10.3MM
  • Leury Garcia (5.025) – $4.0MM
  • Carlos Rodon (4.168) – $4.5MM
  • Evan Marshall (3.090) – $1.3MM

So Colome got a tad more, Marshall a tad less.

Surprised Sox were willing to go over the estimate on Colome.

Yea. I'm kind of terrified of Colome in the closer role for this season.

Definitely too much for Colome but it’s not like Betances was signing here so it’s fine.

This is about the only thing that scares me about the roster right now. 

Closer

His projection, for reference

Nomar Mazara (4.000) – $5.7MM

Evan Marshall clearly just wants to chuck some apples and is ready to go.

Nice. Down to just Leury.

 

edit: oh and Rodon.

Closer

Probably the one area that could be a hole if Colome isn’t as dominant as he was last year.  No idea if the Mets would trade Diaz but that would greatly improve the bullpen by pushing every other reliever down a slot.

Everyone is signed.

I'm intrigued by the classification of Garcia as an "infielder" given that he has been more of an outfielder to this point

Well he's probably our OD 2B at the moment, so I am guessing that is why he is classified as such.

Final tallies:

  • Colome ($10,532,500) +$232,500
  • Garcia ($3,250,000) -$750,000
  • Rodon ($4,450,00) -$50,000
  • Marshall ($1,100,000) -$200,000
  • Mazara ($5,560,000) -$140,000

A total of $907,500 in "savings" today compared to estimates.

You’re gonna pay a premium for a one year of a reliever, so this really isn’t too much IMO.

Why do I feel like Evan Marshall will be an 05 Cliff Politte this year?

I feel the opposite and he will be a bust this year.  I think we got the best of him last year.
