Please explain because Lance and Liam celebrate more and arguably more demonstratively. Hmmm, what could it possibly be?🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind players doing that. I just enjoy seeing more outward joy and animation on the field, rather than the stoic and soldier-like approach. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Payton also played 40 years ago when it was OK to end people's careers because you didn't like them being too happy about something.

Seems like you are talking about today rather than forty years ago.

No player in recent memory has been beloved more per WAR than Anderson. Maybe Palka but that was mostly just weird sox internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-Train to 35th Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 The only problem I have with TA is his glove. Liam and Lynn are not everyday players so to compare them to TA is not fair. We see TA everyday, which is one reason he generates more negativity. I say just catch and throw the ball and the negativity would go away.

wegner Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 With the money being spent on SS in free agency, I do not see any way that the White Sox will sign TA after his deal is done so I understand talking about trading him if the return is good. However, who would we replace him with this season? This team is supposed to be trying to compete. Montgomery should be the future but that is what, 2 seasons away? Elvis was great for us last year but signing him and expecting him to repeat that seems to be foolhardy. Sure, listen to offers for everyone including Anderson but you better not pull off that trade unless you are getting back a nice haul imo. Tim has been the straw that stirs the drink of this offense. Look at what he did in that 2020 playoff series against Oakland. He did his job getting on base at a tremendous clip but the run producers did not do the job getting him in. We will miss him when he is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the plan is to keep him for the two years of team control at a bargain basement price and then let him go when he hits free agency and bring up Colton Montgomery. Their not trading TA anytime soon, maybe in 2024 at the trade deadline if they were smart, instead of letting him walk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they're going to move Anderson yet, that would be an unavoidable admission that they are rebuilding. They can't frame that move any other way and be believable, even "we brought Andrus back" doesn't come off as convincing. You can certainly imagine a scenario where Montgomery is ready enough by next offseason that they feel more willing to make such a move then.

ShoeLessRob Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 When they don’t make the playoffs the next two years they will ultimately let TA walk in free agency without getting anything in return. It’s the White Sox way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
