Kind of weird, right? What's the point? Is he just a clubhouse douche like I seem to think he is?

Probably felt like not paying him for the next month+ is better than paying him to eat innings

Checks out, but why not just cut him after his previous start? He's scheduled to pitch tomorrow.

I’m not running with anything.  It’s clear that the Brewers won the trade.

Well they are getting more out of Vaughn than the Sox did with Civale. He helped spur that long win streak when a bunch of their guys were on the IL so yes I agree you AND the Brewers are going to make the playoffs.

No question as it turned out they got the best end of the trade. All the Sox got was another stiff who ate some innings. 

And I'm not saying they should have kept Vaughn, he needed to get out of this insane asylum as soon as possible to try to get his career going again.

"Over his time with the White Sox, Civale made 13 starts and had a 2-7 record with a 5.37 ERA, 55 strikeouts and 26 walks over 67 innings.

While he has a career-worst 5.26 ERA so far this season, the Cubs are hopeful the 30-year-old right-handed pitcher can boost their rotation for their stretch."

 

Bringing back Bryse Wilson clearly a big win...right?

Saved some money on Civale I guess.

Civale would’ve been a decent bullpen option. Better than some of the guys out there for sure. Not sure why they let him go, unless they did him a favor in allowing him to be in the bullpen on a better team.
