Do you think Cashman is just going to punt the season and seriously risk losing his job if Cole is ruled out?  What are the other options here exactly?

He realizes he's a dead man walking and will not try to save his job.

Why would he do that? lol Sounds like he would have nothing to lose then if he's a dead man walking.

Who’s excited to overreact to Cease’s start tonight

Will Cease, Rodon, Cortez, Stroman rotation be enough to overtake the Orioles if Cole is out for an extended time?  I am not sure if Tampa has enough pitching after this offseason although they do seem to find a way.  Toronto is always a difficult team to figure out.

Do you actually believe someone at risk of losing their job would just sit by and do nothing?   How does that make any sense to you?

Trade him before the start!  Don’t risk potential injury or poor performance!

Me, me!

Footlong Comiskey Assface tweeted that the Rangers are involved, but I hate that account so I'm not going to post a link.

Speaking of the Rangers, I don't love that system outside of Carter/Langford/Walcott. And there's no chance Carter and Langford are on the table.

I think the Sox match up much better with NY.

Don't let Cease pitch tonight

 

Nah let him make the start. If teams are coming back, let him showcase one more time/. Plus, nothing may be even close to imminent so no point skipping.

I'm really hoping Cease got scratched tonight, most just because it might indicate a trade, but if they are deep into discussions with anyone the Sox should take all precautions and protect their asset.

If he pitches tonight then that would indicate to me that nothing is close.

I think the fact that Bob Nightengale is tweeting about the Yankees engaging Getz on Cease indicates that nothing is close.

I would absolutely love to be wrong on this. 

 

With Cease scheduled to pitch today, we get the rare Spring Training dugout #hugwatch usually reserved for the trade deadline.

This is more what I was getting at. You only scratch him if its on the verge of happening. Let him get his 3 innings in and call it a day.

"I... (nervous pause) am excited for a 2024 White Sox spring training game."

Yankees act like Jones is best OF prospect ever. Jones is not even ranked in top 10 OF prospects.  No Jones no deal. Not taking Yankee table scraps for Cease.

I know, it wouldn't make any sense if you didn't. Ive just been waiting to bust that gif out.

I will assume and hope tonight isn't broadcast anywhere. Probably for the best for some folks around here.

Rangers have always made a ton of sense and been a top 3 spot for me.

Barring an injury, it really doesn't matter what Cease does tonight. Its not like the Yankees are going to see him pitch 2 inning, give up 2 runs, and only K one guy and say "Actually, this guy stinks".
