1 hour to go, this has been incredibly underwhelming so far.

Hey .226 is better than what we have

Was hoping for more impact, but the cost is basically zero.

Underwhelming

He's a +0.4 WAR player this year. Better then anything we have and upgrade over romo while Teel gets healthy

Hopefully this means Teel is closer then we think.

Problem is, these "the cost is basically zero" trades aren't going to move the needle for their playoff chances.

I would be shocked if teel makes it back this year, would not be shocked at all if he gets hurt again

Yeah, I've kind of written him off for this year. Great if he comes back, but I'm not expecting him to.

He's such a popular trade deadline day name!

I 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

The entire AL Central has added less than the Skubal trade subtracted lol.

I don't think the downgrade from hopefully Stephenson to Bart will cost the White Sox a WS.

Well, The Sox really must feel Teel is coming back sooner rather than later.

Getz headed for a C/C- deadline week...

Alright now let's trade Quero in the Detmers package

That's quite fair and well put.

If Stephenson doesn't get dealt, we will know why now.

I don't think so. I think the price for the next tier of catcher is probably higher than we think.

Yeah the Adley trade made that pretty clear

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.

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 stretch

I don't know what to make of Doyle other then buy low.

I actually think he's done quite well. Only one I'm confused by is Doyle.

I mean, obviously we gave up nothing to buy bart. You shoulnd't need to give up stuff for a backup catcher.
