Was going to say the same thing — Thaiss getting a ton of run. Also, Jankowski and Taylor both starting in the corners. Ridiculous.

Maybe they don't like how he handles a pitching staff or something, but I'd rather see him DHing and Benintendi in the outfield, then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold seems to be implying they are trying to move him. Are we still eligible for potential compensatory draft picks if we call up Teel now?

But you have said numerous times that Canario would be a terrible acquisition because of his strikeout rate. Why do you want to acquire him now? In any case, I doubt you are getting more than Canario for Thaiss in your hypothetical trade. Edited March 31 by WhiteSox2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you want to acquire him now? I don't see how they fix Canario at the major league level. Maybe they give him the runway to fail for a few weeks, then he slips through waivers. The post said Canario (plus), meaning Canario and somebody else for Thaiss. The lede of the post was to bring up Teel, where he leads the White Sox to a World Series victory, then all the players cry because it means so much to them.

The lede of the post was to bring up Teel, where he leads the White Sox to a World Series victory, then all the players cry because it means so much to them. That’s the key — trying to slip Canario through waivers at a later date if he does struggle. But jeebus, we have Jankowski and Taylor starting games. Canario would have some runway right now. And I bet Canario doesn’t cry when he strikes out. Edited March 31 by WhiteSox2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No team, much less an expected uncompetitive team, should be starting Jankowski and Taylor in their corners. That’s just ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) So we have four guys on the bench today: Maton, Baldwin, Lee, & Slater. If you are going to DH Benintendi, then Baldwin should be in LF. I don’t really care how bad his 2B defense looked yesterday, the kid isn’t going to improve or get comfortable at any spot without reps. Jankowski should never player over him IMO. Beyond that, I’m mostly ok with the lineup. Lee shouldn’t be used as just a platoon bat, but I can kind of understand getting Thaiss in there again with the offense struggling and him coming off a hot game. That being said, that same logic should apply to Maton and Amaya. Again, I have no idea how Maton is defensively at SS, but if capable at all then he should be splitting time there with Amaya (and ideally Baldwin, although I have him above in this hypothetical).

Chicago White Sox Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Has Amaya really started every game so far? I’m sort of blown away by that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tauchman is going on a rehab assignment so Jankowski’s days are numbered. Just wild we keep starting him when we have other options.
