Jerry dips his toes in and squeals, “TOO SPENDY!!!” and meets Getz over by the dumpster as he lights up a cigar to discuss what cheap vet they can add. Edited November 26, 20241 yr by WhiteSox2023
November 27, 20241 yr Juan Soto might never see an at bat if he signed here. He literally might approach 400 walks per year. He’d be a half-billion dollar 8-10 HR guy and may not drive in 30 runs. We would likely witness one of the most unthinkable stat lines in the modern era. .280/.850/1.200/9 HR/27 RBI/40 Runs? Pitch counts would be down league-wide from the number of times they’d point to first.

Pitch counts would be down league-wide from the number of times they’d point to first. Teams could get 2 outs on one pitch! IBB to Soto then first pitch double play. In all seriousness though, the guy knows the zone so well that he would probably walk at least 200 times.

December 2, 20241 yr The Sox payroll has been in top 10 and bottom 10 probably more than almost every team. They average in the upper half. https://www.stevetheump.com/Payrolls.htm Easy to follow charts.
December 3, 20241 yr Lmao if we couldn't stomach Machado at 300m no way we're going after Soto. The deals guys are going to be getting now gonna make Harper and Machados seem like bargains.

They could have signed Betts and Bogaerts for almost that total and you still walk away with a generational type player + plus Xander.

Yeah and five years from now when the going price is a billion, people will look back on it and think how cheap this deal is.

I think the contracts handed out by the Dodgers, Padres, Mets, Yankees, Giants*, Angels**, and Blue Jays can put this stupid argument to rest. *Don't forget that they had Correa until his medicals were busted. **Results may vary.
