They extended Sale and Buehrle. Quintana. They all say hello back. So do David Robertson. Let us know what they offered Samardzija. Should Reinsdorf offer Jon Cannon 15/999999999999999 just to prove he wants to win? This is a stupid narrative. All owners "allow" their GMs to offer free agents deals.

David Robertson was paid like a quality elite closer.

Credit for Shark offer, which would have been horrendous?...not to mention the acquisition cost for just one year.

Ummm...no.

They let a long line of pitchers leave the organization without replacing them.

The one they QO'd (not Rodon) led to Kimbrel/AJ Pollock/Benintendi.

Not to mention Keuchel (very last pitcher from that FA tier) and Mr. Steak & Potatoes by way of St.Louis/TLR and Texas...capped at three year deals that went bust.

Amazing that in our elimination game the Sox pitching was great. That was a hall of fame home run Ramirez hit....cannot blame Burke at all for that one.

Completely agree...............Too bad we had 20! K's

The new CBA will probably force jR to spend some money. A couple of good starters would be nice.

I see Kay mentioned here a lot... Kay is not ogod. He will give you a quality start every now and then, but overall, he is at best a 5th starter.

Hovers around 5.00 Era every season.

He should not be in the OD rotation IMO. Either he goes to the pen or should be traded. At a $5M salary, he’s still potentially rostering as a swingman.
