The dumbest possible trade that made no sense is off…shocking

Dang? I saw it in another post. Still don't remember it though.

Defensive catchers have a ton of value and the Sox keep drafting offensive catchers that can't F'n hit.  

 

Pilkington being anywhere near a viable piece and given up for a guy whose cheap option the team didn't even pick up is so white sox.

His framing numbers are really good. He was worth +15 runs on defense last year in only half a season's worth of playing time. He can't hit for shit, but he can catch.

He’s not in the Top 7-8 in their pitching depth chart…it’s simply that they prefer to let Logan Allen continue starting in the minors.

 

So... who's getting shipped out for one of the A's pitchers? If the Sox were interested before, I'd imagine Lynn's injury would cause them to increase their offer some more.

He might be in the OD rotation if he were still here ?

Phil Rogers still is paid to provide his opinions?  How?

It’s more like the baseball equivalent of TMZ speculation…

How do complete hacks like Phil Rogers still have jobs in the industry?

Really not sure what the Padres need with him. They have a surplus of pitching

They’ll probably trade Hosmer and Paddack to the Cubs now

What is a fair return for Vaughn?

For Madrigal and Suzuki...lol.

They need a closer, but Suarez likely gets the first look. Still have Pomeranz and Pagan, among others.

The real question is what old TLR connection still out there that they will bring into the fold?
