But, yeah, I'm very surprised they haven't signed a trash heaper yet.
February 5, 20215 yr 9 minutes ago, Orlando said: I can’t believe he got an MLB deal. I can’t believe the Sox wouldn’t give him one if he really looked as great as all these reporters keep saying. Which means not only do the Sox owe him money, they would have also had to cut someone to make space for him.

But, yeah, I'm very surprised they haven't signed a trash heaper yet. I mean, I picked guys that were likely to make 3 million or less. So in that case, I suppose we take Rodon. I'm just not ever going to be nice to hard carl.

It's eating this flex fifth starter position which is about whether people believe that Rodon deserves that handed to him.

February 5, 20215 yr Bottom line is this one shouldn’t hurt. Way more likely than not Folty can’t help the White Sox.

We will see if that really is the issue. You would think if their scouts thought he was going to be the 2018 Folty, JR, I think would gladly cough up $3 million.They have to sign someone.

Maybe the guy wants a legit shot at sticking on a rotation for a full season, something the Sox can't guaranteed.

February 5, 20215 yr Rodon is on the team. That’s 5 starters. 8 relievers easily. If Folty struggles, he’s out of options. Cant be sent down. It’s just not realistic on a big league deal. Not here.

And again in order to do it, you are probably cutting someone else who could help the team this year in order to get him in on that major league deal.

Plenty of crap teams can guarantee a guy like this a spot in the rotation. It's not really that disappointing the Sox missed out on him. Edited February 6, 20215 yr by manbearpuig
