MLBTR Offseason Outlook on White Sox

This Tucker market seems ridiculously below expectations.  I really Ishbia was in charge right now because we should be all over this guy at the price points and length being discussed.

Sounds like he may decide on a team today.

    Santos, Houser and Robert trades are all fine imo. Fedde/Kopech wasn't great, Cease was bad. 

  • The National Equirer is more accurate than that guy.

    You are a White Sox fan, so it is probably more like a -1 WAR 37 year old 2B who will play 1B poorly.

Yeah, he isn't getting as much love as he should. He will still get a massive contract though.

Oh well, I will nitpick Tucker. If you go by FanGraphs, he’s never had a 5-war season. And his defense is a negative, at least per the war factory. .  last year, he had the  same number of homers as our very own Lenyn Sosa.

Just to up the stakes a little, Tucker is the best available FA hitter for the next couple of years. The list of hitters that will be free agents the next two years is pretty ugly.

OBP is still a thing.  So is Tucker’s usual SLG.

Yup, theoretically when you payroll bandwidth you got to take advantage of when really good players hit free agency because they may not be later.  Unfortunately that won’t be us, but conceptually I’d seriously consider if I were the owner of the White Sox.

Even with that nitpick, and using fangraphs, he's the 10th ranked player via WAR since 2021 and he's only 28. He's a + RF'er too, despite fangraphs weird negative grade and he's a really good base runner.

The Tucker market is beyond weird, but then again many of the big money guys went later into the off-season so who knows.

Would be a good opportunity to swoop in and take advantage.

If Schultz, Smith and Taylor (at least 2 of the 3) were ready to dominate as starters, I could see it.

Isn't it fun to always talk about players we will never get?

Now the Cubs can trade Matt Shaw, they have his replacement

 

 

Trey Mcgough (Eloy trade) decided he doesn’t want to be retired anymore and signed with the Mets.

Gardening is tough, and the ladies at the retirement center had a couple of years on him.

Ol’ Cohen seems pretty jazzed about it. I can’t think who else it might be about. 🤔
