Quite a few guys have been returned and even the original team has passed bringing them back. I think like 2-3 picks this happened to last year. So to me it's really just about the $100k. You bring a guy in, get him a try out, if you don't want him on the opening day roster, offer him back. There are 5 spots open. It's not like thereare many tough decisions currently. And let's be honest here, what are the odds that the entire pitching staff breaks camp healthy and productive? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Did they use Rule 5 even once during the rebuild? Never mind, Covey. But just once. Edited December 7, 2022 by GreenSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the white sox trading away international money in trades. Yes of course a Jerry Reinsdorf owned franchise is trying to maximize profits.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) I'd totally be on board with taking 1-2 guys. There's literally no risk.. If you take a BP arm and he sucks, he can go back to their team. If we take Misner and he can't handle the 4th OF role, he can go back to the Rays. If we aren't going to spend some money to improve the team, take a free guy(s) who is better than what we've already got.

G13 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I would sign Jayson heyward to be our 4/5th OF. Before u laugh, think about it. You'd be paying the minimum, he is left handed, still plays great defense and great clubhouse guy. When healthy, same if not better BA then bellinger has had the last few yrs. I'd rather have him at the plate or in the OF, instead of leury legend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Any chance teams stick around later since these meetings were a day shorter than usual and the draft is later in the day? It is 2PM out there. Maybe fly home later tonight or first thing tomorrow. Edited December 7, 2022 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
