July 17, 20241 yr 59 minutes ago, JoeC said: Meh - this is a nothingburger of a deal. Like other have mentioned, this just means someone like DeJong is being traded, and the backfill prospects aren't ready (in the org's view). As long as this doesn't cut into Sosa's time, I'm OK with this move. It is, but haven't they tortured Sox fans enough? Now we get to watch this dope? No hit, no field, never healthy,owed minimum, that's a 4 tool player under the White Sox model.

No hit, no field, never healthy,owed minimum, that's a 4 tool player under the White Sox model. At least this way, we're (probably) not ruining yet another prospect's development by rushing them to play meaningless games on a team destined to lose at historical rates, guided by one of the worst field managers in history.
July 17, 20241 yr 7 hours ago, Dick Allen said: He can’t hit. He can’t field. He can’t stay healthy. A White Sox trifecta. So what else is new.

If this bum plays the outfield, they will be wasting at bats that could’ve gone to Colas. Edited July 17, 20241 yr by WhiteSox2023

July 17, 20241 yr Makes me feel old seeing this guy's name and realizing he is already 29. Feels like yesterday he was a top draft pick. Edited July 17, 20241 yr by ron883

July 17, 20241 yr Senzel still only has four years service time. Does that mean Sox get arb rights, or no?
July 17, 20241 yr 30 minutes ago, 46DidIt said: Senzel still only has four years service time. Does that mean Sox get arb rights, or no? Yes. He’d have another year of arb control in 25, if they want it. Also, Sox will owe Senzel prorated amount of league min. Anything they pay will come off the $2M the Nats owe.

July 17, 20241 yr 30 minutes ago, 46DidIt said: Senzel still only has four years service time. Does that mean Sox get arb rights, or no? I think you are correct. He’s not a free agent until 2026. But that isn’t a plus for a player this awful.

Anything they pay will come off the $2M the Nats owe. This move makes SOME sense then. could flip him or dump him after the year with minima risk.

July 18, 20241 yr Wasn’t he good as a rookie with the Reds… and an often discussed trade target for us the following year?
