Just seems to be a lot of speculation that something big is happening from a ton of accounts I follow, they're probably all foodie burner accounts to be honest.

Chicago White Sox Posted December 7, 2022 Author Share Posted December 7, 2022 Tuesday night is usually peak craziness and s%*# is completely dead right now. Hopefully something pops up in the next hour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Jerry is going to read Bob the riot act after Smithers hands him Bob’s article tomorrow morning. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/its-a-feeding-frenzy-for-free-agents-at-mlb-winter-meetings-opinion/ar-AA14ZaFE Quote And if a team like the Padres, who play in the 27th-largest market in the country, can be willing to have a payroll exceeding $250 million, hey, no excuses for anyone else, right? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 The good news is spring training isn’t for 10 weeks. Most teams are in the same position as the Sox as far as acquiring players for 2023. s%*# may happen tonight or tomorrow. Certainly the next three weeks will be active for everyone. Let’s see what the roster looks like on 1/1/23 compared to the rest of the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Aside from the Cubs, Giants, and Phillies, the winter meetings have been pretty quiet. No major trades. A few big signings on Monday (that were probably already in agreement before the meetings started). Hopefully the Sox have been laying some groundwork for a trade or two. There's no way this team can go into spring training without some substantial upgrades and expect to compete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted December 7, 2022 Author Share Posted December 7, 2022 Judge signing will get the OF market moving now. Need Correa, Boegarts, & Swanson to sign as well along with a Murphy trade to really open up the trade market for us. Seems like it’s going to be a minute before we see Hahn do much.

ChiSox59 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Is today a full day, or is it like pre covid that the hotel empties after the Rule 5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I’m wavering and it seems like Swanson may get paid a lot. But still think teams will treat him like a distant third and not just give him the same glob not good enough for the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 The rule 5 is going to be incredibly important to the white Sox offseason, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides teams that got signings done, you also had teams like the Giants and Padres who were clearly making strong offers for guys. Plenty of activity for the year.
