They're busy trying to sign Kershaw.  

I was wondering if his name would pop up.  Replacing one injured lefty with another seems suspect.

Ah, I thought you meant the Sox were trying to sign Kershaw. 

So who ARE the Sox going after?

Players have generally been signing for $5.5M-$6M AAV per each projected 2022 fWAR share, generally $0.5M-$1.0M less than the crowd sourced estimates per fWAR. Half of the 2+ fWAR projected FAs are now off the board.

Updated through 7PM signings:

Crowdsourced or final AAV per projected 2022 fWAR  (Limited to the 33 FAs with a 2.0 or higher projected fWAR):

Can really envision the White Sox taking a low risk go at Duffy since already so familiar with Central.

Health...who knows?  But any pitcher in that $8-12 million range will come with warts.  Probably a deal based around a ton of incentives.

So much for this being the Winter Meetings and trade deadline all wrapped up in one day…

LOL at these two Ranger Tweets.

 

 

No interest in Cobb?  Seems about what the Sox need.
Of course it takes more work to deal with agents than for the FO with the #30 farm to make a trade.

I think this board shit their pants this week. Really think the only guy we may have been in on truly was Gausmann.

Other than that I think they’re intent on Conforto and Rodon. I’m more optimistic about his front office perception than most though.

Kap having any kind of White Sox logo/gear on him makes me sick.

It appears the free agents signings have taken a breather.

We’ll see. Things have calmed down a bit it appears but right after I say this, watch there will probably be a signing.
