maxjusttyped Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 1 minute ago, Chicago White Sox said: What’s funny is not one of the prospects that Hahn gave up in the Shark trade were top 100 prospects, yet everyone here acts like they were surefire stars. It was far from a king’s ransom at the time. I think a lot of that came down to how Semien's skillset was perceived ~10 years ago vs how it would be now. Even if he were viewed as 2B only, a 22 year old putting up a 163 wRC+ in AA and then continuing to do well in AAA later that year would be a top 50 prospect at minimum.

Like I tell Jack all the time, take a breather from Soxtalk and go rub one out if discussing a White Sox team coming off two playoff appearances for the first time in like forever is so painstaking for you. You’re garbage posting right now and having to read nonstop bitching & whining is pretty annoying when nothing has happened. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like you need Kimbrel to backup Hendriks, you need Tepera to backup Graveman. Soler gives you that playoff experience you need, and Mendick is just ready to slot into 2B.

The last 3 seasons he has been hot garbage outside of an amazing first half with the Cubs last year. And that first half was driven by a career best BABIP and career best HR/FB rate.

I’ve ripped the front office plenty because they’ve made plenty of bad moves. But unlike you, I also give them credit for building one of the best teams in baseball.

You seem to want to be miserable right now and that’s your prerogative, but do us all a favor and stop the non-stop shit-posting.

He's the same idiot that traded Tatis and a kings ransom for a season of Jeff Samardzija. He is also the guy who acquired grandal, abreu, moncada, Jimenez, Robert, Giolito Cease Bummer and Hendricks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of you guys are acting like little babies right now.

Hey, I'm just parroting back things I've read today: We needed that closer depth instead of OFers a year ago with our top OFers on the IL. Now that they're back healthy, we won't need a RFer. Also, Bassitt is the best SP available on the market today, so even if you lose the trade, it'll be OK. And, Kimbrel's a HOFer, so keep him.
