What happens if Romy and Sosa just suck? There is nothing wrong with bringing in back up plans. Those guys are gonna get crushed by big league RHP.

December 22, 20223 yr Crazy day…catching up on this thread. So many of you just jump off the cliff the second someone says something slightly negative. So comical. Relax peeps. Sox aren’t giving away Liam.

December 22, 20223 yr 1 hour ago, Chicago White Sox said: If you need salary relief, trade Liam to the Jays for Jansen and you just cleared $10M. The Sox do not need to give him away for nothing. I can’t even imagine the contract he’d get right now if he were a free agent. 4/$80M is probably the floor.

Going into next season without a high floor option like Segura or Escobar at 2B would be insanity.
December 22, 20223 yr Just now, Chicago White Sox said: Come on - this is clearly a complete and utter BS rumor.
December 22, 20223 yr Just wanted to see the board explode over the worst rumor in internet history ???

December 22, 20223 yr Yeah, the Mets' colonoscopies and footlongs are now claiming Eloy. And Mauricio and Vientos (Mets' versions of Sosa and Romy) the plum prospects along with McCann and Escobar, of course.
December 22, 20223 yr Pretty sure my old rule of “as soon as it seems complicated nothing will actually be happening and everything else is made up by fans” rule now applies.

December 22, 20223 yr 17 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Don't give this rumor any thought. At least not for the names being referenced by the Mets.
December 22, 20223 yr 19 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: That is putrid. Eloy + Liam = a fucking haul. Using that for salary relief is fucking criminal.
