Yeah the best fit for a guy with splits like his is the Sox. Don't care what he hits vs LHP. Plenty of guys have that covered.
August 1, 20223 yr Milwaukee has a logjam on the infield right now. Jace Peterson, Keston Hiura, and Luis Urias can all play 2B. Peterson is on the IL right now, but it seems like Milwaukee wants to save some money if they're trying to trade both Wong and Narvaez.

Interesting players on the Cubs include Contreras, Happ, Givens, Robertson, and in my dreams Hendricks. The WS have Sheets, Burger, Crochet, Lambert, Martin, Ruiz, and McGuire as nice pieces for a rebuilding club. What in the world is dreamy about a 33 YO SP with an ERA and FIP just below 5 since the start of 2021? Not sure why the Sox would want Hendricks. Outside of Crochet, what you listed off for the Sox is pretty close to worthless and probably isn't getting you anything from the Cubs you listed outside of perhaps Givens and Robertson.

Hendricks also has a bad shoulder and could be done for the year

They may have not used the sticky stuff for spin, but rather better location. If guys with sub 90 sinkers can no longer hit their spot, they get absolutely destroyed.

Quite frankly, I'm just grateful the Cardinals are in contention to prevent the Sox from landing Pujols, Molina and Wainwright for every prospect.

I think with the top 2 SPs off the board we're gonna see more movement in the pitching market. Rodon is the next big piece if he's actually going to get traded. Mahle, Quintana, Perez, and Syndergaard are in the next tier.

They already have a trading relationship with the Reds from the Gray deal earlier this year. Reds probably have a good idea of their system from their previous scouting.

I believe the White Sox could make no moves at all and still end up winning this division.

It'd be pretty funny if they ended up trading Austin Martin or Simeon Woods Richardson for a starter. It'd be like not trading Jose Berrios, but with extra steps.

August 1, 20223 yr Long time no see,hello imo a totally healthy sox team doesnt need any additions but with bummer out and hendricks shaky a bullpen arm would be my addition if i was hahn
August 1, 20223 yr 2 hours ago, GreenSox said: When I think impactful, I think of your guy in Pitt (and I know prob not enough). I fear buying high on Happ, who had 2 walks and 1 homer in July and whose numbers have started to recede to his usual average self. It's one month out of a season. There is always variance . He and Willson Contreras also crushed it in June. Contreras was really bad in July compared to Happ. If you worry about month to month variance in stats you'd never make trades.
