Until proven otherwise I’m expecting them to massively overpay for Salvador Perez in a trade (hoping not to the point of Montgomery) sign 4 or 5 players to $10 million contracts, and declare that they think they’re competitive for the AL Central right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is 100% no chance they trade Montgomery for Salvador Perez. Even the White Sox aren't that stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine any scenario where any prospect more valuable than Wilfred Veras is traded for Perez. I'd actually like the guy on the team but you'd have to be foolish to give up anything of actual value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I'll have more on this in the next few days i.e. By the Numbers but seriously there isn't one single area that I can find where the Sox can say, "OK...at least we are in good shape here..." The offense is a joke (more than half their games this year they scored three runs or less), the pitching is a disaster with few starters and a bullpen made up almost entirely of cast off's, retreads and has been's, terrible fundamentals from "baseball-stupid" players, an incompetent, dysfunctional and inept front office who is new to the carnage, an ossified owner who has already put limits on the free agent situation publicly and a poor minor league system. What could possibly go wrong in 2024? 😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt that they trade any of their top 5 prospects for a player who should be a salary dump. But, of course, he won't be a salary dump. I'd say they'll trade from the prospects Pedro doesn't like: Colas, Sosa, and/or some 2nd tier guys. Even that is too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
