This same team probably thought Castillo was a TOR starter. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by WhiteSox2023

Not to mention I’m just not sure Taylor has the feel for pitching beyond being able to overpower hitters.Taylor and Hagen have the making of a dominant L/R backend of bullpen that can shorten the game to 7 innings. Keep that strength AND improve the rotationGetz says they are looking for starters on the market or via free agency. Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by Colome's Hat

Adding a Peralta or King caliber pitcher is enough to head into the season with, in my opinion.See what you have and add at the deadline if you're in the hunt and need another TOR arm.Having said that, if they DID add two top guys, I'd be ecstatic. Just don't think it's a total necessity.
