MLBTR Offseason Outlook on White Sox

No one that the Sox are probably interested in — Bellinger, Bader, Hays.  Hays would probably be reasonable moneywise.  But if the Sox are targeting Kepler, I’d rather not sign anyone and wait for Montgomery to be ready.  Luckily, this is probably a bogus rumor from a nobody.

It looks like Getz would like to not start May in a 7-23 hole, again. In which case, I would imagine Kepler/Hays/Tauchman would work as a RF placeholder until B. Monty plays his way onto the parent club.

In that case, I don’t have a ton of hope that Bleday will hit but he probably makes the most sense because he could move to CF once Robert is traded and Montgomery is ready to take over RF.

Nothing to this, just posting for the spectacle of random trade ... I won't even call them rumors. Brain worms. 

 

The Mets and Braves are in a bit of a trade “battle” with the White Sox. Both teams vying for Shane Smith. Mets also have interest in Jordan Leasure.

Michael Harris is the only guy from the Braves that would make any sense at all in this type of trade.

Yeah... that seams highly unlikely. Sox want pitching for Robert, yet are going to trade away pitching? No chance.

I normally get mad at spelling errors but seams is acceptable on a baseball forum

I normally get mad at grammar errors when people don’t use a period at the end of a sentence.  🤣😉

It's cold AF here and dark. A warm summer evening with some brews and baseball sounds nice.

Yeah would have to be a hell of an overpay honestly.

A Robert + Leasure to the Mets trade could be interesting, but not for Luisangel Acuna.
