August 3Aug 3 Just now, joejoesox said:I would be shocked if teal makes it back this year, would not be shocked at all if he gets hurt againI guess we will have to see. I know Bart isn't the guy everyone wanted but he's a huge upgrade over Romo! I know that's not saying much but it will help
August 3Aug 3 I don't think the downgrade from hopefully Stephenson to Bart will cost the White Sox a WS.

August 3Aug 3 Just now, kwill said:Well, The Sox really must feel Teel is coming back sooner rather than later.I don't think so. I think the price for the next tier of catcher is probably higher than we think.

August 3Aug 3 We gave up next to nothing to get Bart. He is hitting .226 and has a positive WAR. .680 OPS. Romo is at -.6 WAR hitting .134 and has a .500 OPS. This is an upgrade. He is a positive defensive WAR too. Romo makes Bart look like Ivan Rodriguez, he never needs to get a Major league at bat with the white sox again. Just land a SP and this was a great trade deadline. But dont go do a massive overpay. We got a SP, solid RP, a backup catcher and didnt break the bank in any way.
August 3Aug 3 I think the sox got better in their bullpen today.They improved catching just with the subtraction of Romo I think Castillo is going to help down the stretchI don't know what to make of Doyle other then buy low.

You shoulnd't need to give up stuff for a backup catcher.
