That’s about the only way they spend their allotment if they are at this point with plenty of money left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Paddy has struggled to fill his classes after the CBA has changed, but is still the highest performing member of Hahns front office so he has no standing to push him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luis Reyes has to be $1 million plus. His profile is very interesting. Alvarez is $300K and Uribe is $200K. RHP Luis Danys Morales is signing for like $3.5 million with Oakland. Sox offered him $2.5 million and said they’d trade for more space too accommodate. So they have at least $2.5 million 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if they are good, or who has agreed to deals though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PolishPrince34 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) Houston Astros have around 38 players in their organization with Cuban heritage. They have now overtaken the White Sox organization with most Cuban players. I can’t find the article, but wasn’t there around a dozen Cuban players eligible during the summer for this signing period.

"fair" is still up for dispute. One of the articles I just read was talking about how there were already deals for north of $3 million in the classes of 2025 and 26.

Dick Allen Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Since I was told I shouldn't complain because there is nothing I can do about it, maybe we should discuss reality. Whose contract(s) can the White Sox dump for bonus pool money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalChiSox Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Sounds like they are gonna fo another trade with Texas for salary relief and/or a marginal roster player at a position of need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Luis Reyes is signing for $700K, Rafael Álvarez is $300K and Uribe is $200K. Not sure on the others but Sox should have like $3 million left. No idea what their plan is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
