November 21, 201312 yr QUOTE (DirtySox @ Nov 20, 2013 -> 07:25 PM) Miggy back to 1B, loads of money saved. Extending Scherzer? Get in the market for Choo too perhaps?
November 21, 201312 yr QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Nov 20, 2013 -> 08:33 PM) It doesn't really matter. As soon as Miggy starts to decline, they're done. Apparently they will just trade him when this happens.

November 21, 201312 yr Looks like they free up money to sign Miguel long-term and I guess ship him to first? Kinsler helps fill a hole at second.
November 21, 201312 yr Huge trade (no pun)! I really wanted Tigers to be stuck with the contract. I think as of very RIGHT NOW this is good for the White Sox but like others said it allows Tigers to make moves they couldn't make with Prince on the payroll.
November 21, 201312 yr I hope Fielder vetoes it...if the Tigers aren't sending money to Texas, this is a huge coup for them
November 21, 201312 yr Eh, no. There is more to that team than just Miggy. If he were a league average player, they'd be an 85 win team.

November 21, 201312 yr Also likely hurts the Sox with regards to Kinsler hitting our LHP better than Prince would. Kinsler seems to crush the Sox, but I haven't checked the stats.

November 21, 201312 yr QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Nov 20, 2013 -> 07:41 PM) If he were a league average player, they'd be an 85 win team. Miggy will never be league average. Injuries are your only hope.
November 21, 201312 yr Author Honestly, this deal doesn't impact the White Sox. Until the Sox turn over two-thirds of the lineup, and give a couple other guys some seasons of experience, they're an under .500 team.
November 21, 201312 yr I honestly dont know what the Texas Rangers are doing Kinsler is a horrible player at this point, and he's not cheap either.
November 21, 201312 yr So apparently there is money going Texas' way, but not sure how much as of yet. It has to be $30-40 million, no?
November 21, 201312 yr QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Nov 20, 2013 -> 09:41 PM) If he were a league average player, they'd be an 85 win team. well whenever he regresses to "average", they'll have even more money to spend on other players now. Or to lock up current players.
