Won’t be surprised at all if they trade Vaughn for a SP and resign Jose. Also won’t be surprised if Jose does move onto another team and Vaughn remains with us. The 2023 off-season is going to be very revealing for sure. If they go into the season with 4 glaring fucking holes again… they are fucking clueless or don’t really give a s%*#. They don't give a s%*#. I find it hilarious that the word f*** is so versatile that random variations evade the swear filter. Lol. f*** those fucking fuckers and their fuckery.

Capital G Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) 22 hours ago, Chimpton said: But neither Eloy or AV can be relied on to last a full season without spells on the IL whereas Jose has been fairly robust over the seasons, and as for not being able to hit 20 hrs this season, neither did any other White Sox batter, so should we get rid of them as well? Ok sure you're right about Eloy for sure. But Jose isn't signing to be a part time player. If we keep him and start him bc of what ifs then he'd start and put us back to having terrible OF defense. Your 1B needs to have more than 15 hr power. Eloy was hurt, EV played his first real season, Robert injured, etc. As you said, Jose doesn't miss much time. Yet he hit below 20 hrs.

I know where you are coming from as AV needs to be moved to 1B if he is to contribute properly and Eloy needs to be DH if he is to avoid missing half the season by getting himself injured again. I am just concerned that we may regret ditching one of the most consistent hitters in the team, he could bounce back with more power next season. Basically, this whole mess has been caused by bad roster building by the FO that has resulted in so many 1B/DH types and Grandal who is basically a DH now at best, along with Eloy. Realistically I know that not renewing Jose is the easiest option, but it would be hard to see him for another team next season especially if he still produces.

Also a starter only goes 4-5 innings. That means 2-3 at bats are against guys that throw 95 then after you foul two off get you out with a cutter. Granted some of these relievers are hacks but more often than not they either walk a guy or strike out a guy. Jose has more than 15 HR power. He will prove that for his next team if it's a live ball.

Agreed for the most part but Judge didnt seem to care, imagine how many more dingers he would have hit under normal circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox offer was 7/175 until Machado got the $300M offer from San Diego. Then, the Sox "offered" him an inferior deal that they knew had zero chance of being accepted so they could look slightly less ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
