I totally get your reasoning here. You outline why I reneged on what I was offering initially. I literally threw that together in a waiting room with only 3G as service when I was bored. Then you got SouthSideSale and Chilihead freaking out about a mistake that I already acknowledged. My post created two pages of discussion though...

 

It was a great post!

Read the last two pages of this thread. You don't know what insists means. It's weak that you're trying to make it personal. Sorry your ideas are far-fetched, over-repeated and irrelevant to reality.

 

I'm not making it personal because I don't even know you Not all of my ideas are far-fetched. That's the only one.

 

Go look at my mock offseason. It's not crazy. A few aggressive moves made. I don't have us signing $100 million free agents.

Sure seems like Levine spinning what Hahn said to fit his agenda for the story.

 

Pretty typical Levine "reporting". Takes quotes and then spins them with reckless abandon. Dude is one of the worst reporters in the city.

I said it was good except the contract. I read your whole post it was a great idea with all of the trades. I wasn't freaking out lol just had a couple small issues. That's also why it was a good post because it created two pages of discussion (aside from my nonsense which I acknowledged).

Agreed. This team does need a lot of work though that's why I expect an aggressive off-season.

Yep, I "freaked out" about Rich Hill no more than you "freaked out" about Nolan Arenado.

 

This is great discussion about great discussion.

In the uncorrected version of this story, he calls our GM "Rick Someone". Bruce Levine is on his own planet right now.

 

Yeah that was just silly.

Sox aren't shelling out big money for a 5 year deal on a shortstop with Tim Anderson making his way toward MLB.

i agree, even if he meant if

1. anderson can't make the ss or

This article brings up a good target for the Sox:

They should pursue Dioner Navarro to split time with Flowers. Pretty good K% and BB%, solid defensively, better avg and obp than Flowers. Would be a nice compliment.

I don't know why they didn't sign him two years ago after his nice year with the Cubs.

Pierzynksi returning to braves. Might take wieters out of play for them

Wieters is out of play for the White Sox too. Was as soon as that Qualifying Offer was given.

CSN reporter just said that Hoyer and Epstein are probably going to sit down around Thanksgiving and devise a plan for the off season, and that they were doing a lot of information gathering right now.

 

Sound familiar?

This is what teams do and what these meetings are for. Feeling everyone out right now. Preparing for the winter meetings in what 5 weeks?

Don't think the qualifying offer is totally going to deter the sox. They got a 10 pick which is protected and should be a comp pick for shark when he declines. Sox don't have enough prospects to get the players back to fill all the holes they have. Quintana is going to be probably have to moved in order to full the spots. This is probably the last year they can try to sign qualifying offer free agent .

I am curious if we'll make a run at a guy like Zimmerman or Maeda. We were talking to shark about a big contract so I'm wondering if they'll make a play for one of the starters. Price and Grienke will be way too much. I wonder about Zimmerman and Maeda who'll be posted later this month.
