The Twins are also shocked. So it's Grandal for Kepler now ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also means Giolito is about to be moved soon thereafter. That would be such a terrible trade for the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a deal with them at the deadline might be realistic but nothing is going to happen with them unless the Sox are overpaying drastically Unfortunately plot holes happen when you quickly race to steal someone else’s rumor without thinking it through properly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Twins were 20-28 in 1 run games and 5-10 in extra innings. They produced 2.5 WAR from their bullpen, less than half that of the White Sox. I know those guys are young and will help, but they sure look like they could benefit from bullpen help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also means Giolito is about to be moved soon thereafter. I don't think Reylo is going anywhere, his role is too valuable for what the Sox need right now (talented guy who stays healthy in a spot start/long reliever role, due to having question marks in the rotation and pen) plus I doubt he brings back anything of value (could be wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Giolito's fWAR was 1.8 in '22...down from > 5 in '19. He's just a different pitcher since changing to his short arm delivery. I don't know why he changed (maybe he's convinced it will preserve his arm health?) but I don't see him returning to 2019 form. I believe there is a greater chance he continues to regress. I also believe there are teams willing to take a chance on him and, given his California roots, the Dodgers and or Padres might pony up. I'd sure rather test his market now than risk his value continues to decline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I expect Gio will have a pretty good season next year - I like Gio in general - but If they got a good offer I couldn’t argue with moving him either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREEDY Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 During the rebuild, much of this board celebrated fake insiders for providing "us" entertainment. Happy to see the new majority put these losers in their place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
