I can’t see him ever getting another shot unless the Sox suffer multiple OF injuries. If Fletcher makes it through waivers and he's assigned to Charlotte, that makes Colas 4th man up on the depth chart. I just get the sense that the dude's headstrong and there's no way forward.

These damn rules get so hard to remember… Edited March 28 by WhiteSox2023 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 One of the things we noticed at the Home Opener was that our outfielders were all in great physical condition. Oscar Colas is not, he is a tank. That's not the kind of player Venable wants on this team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I believe the question is "how many times can we f*** an employee over before they can leave?" and the answer keeps getting better for the players with every CBA. Eventually I hope they eliminate the draft, everyone is a free agent unless signed to a MLB contract for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of the last "competitive" rosters we had were loaded with plodding station to station big guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you will end up like NIL with the SEC and Big Ten professional equivalents totally dominating....East and West Coast would run all over the Midwest and Rust Belt.
