Witt Jr. will never be a Sox player unless he’s pushing 40 and that’s when Sox fans would joke about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoesox Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 so if they sign a 1b/DH,doesn't that signal that quero is being traded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably would take them signing 2. Or signing a corner OF making Benintendi DH more. I think personally, I would roll with the 2 Catchers since you can DH. The infield does get crowded adding a 1B too. Edited November 14 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a guy like O’Hearn will be better for a year but he’s 32. Moving Quero to make room for O’Hearn would be dumb as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 I think he would be a decent signing. He‘s been good the last few seasons. Wouldn’t be long term and gives you someone to potentially flip later as well potentially. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somebody thinks they can Ron Washington Sosa into a viable 2B, that's a valuable bat. Between Meidroth, Antonacci and others, we have 2B covered for 2026.

Timmy U Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 Looking at the teams listed calling on Quero (Nats, Padres, Astros, Rays, Rangers) I have a hard time finding matches. If the Nats would give up Lile, I could see that. Would you take a flier on Crews? I have never been a believer. Maybe Evan Carter from Texas. Theo Gillen from Rays is a few years away. Everyone the Padres could offer is way far away. It’s easy to say, “Let’s trade Edgar, but there’s no Create A Player option. Who would you actually want for him? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 23 hours ago, Baron said: Signing Ryan O'Hearn would not be a misfit toy signing, dumpster diving or business as usual. Not sure how it's not business as usual. It would be signing a 32 year old coming off a career year... A guy who has graded out as a negative defender every year of his career, and by a good bit. Someone who between age 24 and 29 basically was worth 0 WAR over 450ish games. He won't demand a big contract, he's a strong-side-of-platoon bat, and he's projected for a little over 1 WAR. This is absolutely business as usual. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a big leaguer and they need more of those, so it wouldn't be a bad addition to the team but him falling off a cliff wouldn't be surprising either. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd prefer Crews to Lile because Crews could actually stick in CF and replace Robert/let him slide over to a less strenuous position. Lile has obviously been better at the MLB level thus far, but it's a small sample size. I don't think Washington would give up either guy though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure? He’s a 32 year old veteran 1B/DH that has only accumulated 3.1 bWAR in his entire career. Of course, he’s a former Royals player so that probably explains Getz’s interest. It would definitely be a “business as usual” Sox signing. Edited November 17 by WhiteSox2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Fuller guy def more of a factor than any made up Royals connection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
