Timmy U Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 Seems like the Twins are trying to compete, which is more than you can say for the Sox. I'm not even an advocate of them doing much, but how little they're doing to bolster the 2026 team is shocking even to me. Don't care about Josh Bell specifically, but when you can't spend $6 mil on a lefty bat, it's just sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox might not be getting out of last place again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've been fine with that here. $7 million guaranteed. If Josh Bell gets this much, just think what Ryan O’Hearn will get paid. Sox likely getting priced out of the FA market.

Lukakke Appling Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 (edited) Not sure if this helps or hurts Robert’s value. They’ve been about the same hitter the past two seasons, but Robert brings more to the table and will start the season 5 years younger. Is that worth the difference? Who knows. If anything maybe it’ll put some pressure on the Mets. Edited December 15 by Lukakke Appling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 At least we’re seeing some movement. I expect at least one free agent signing for the Sox this week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 Garcia will slot into RF for the Phillies per their beat writer. Despite citing the OF as a possible need for the Sox, Garcia was never going to be a realistic option for us given his free swinging ways. IMO, this only helps the value of Robert as mediocre corner OFs are getting decent sized salaries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBWSF Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 I just wonder if Getz has actually tried to sign some decent free agent and those free agents have declined to come here simply because they don't want to be playing for the White Sox.

Maybe. And maybe the tier that Getz is targeting is waiting for more valuable players to be taken off the board first, or for the teams closer to competing to decline them.
