Winter Meetings Dec. Trades FA Signings Thread
SoCalChiSox replied to caulfield12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
How much room would that give us to spend right now? Note: If we can swap out Robert's 20m for Meyers 5m or so that would also help alot. -

Winter Meetings Dec. Trades FA Signings Thread
SoCalChiSox replied to caulfield12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If they can sign O'Hearn and trade for Meyers that will then allow them to move Robert and his salary which should open up more payroll for other FAs. -
12 WAR is not good value for 155m. 30m a year for a RH 1B/DH is an awful deal for BAL but perhaps Elias is under pressure to show he is willing to spend.

Woo hoo Go Canes! It should have been Miami and ND, not Miami and Alabama, but I'll take it. If Alabama got left out it would have been the death of Conf Title Games and alot of lost revenue for these conferences where ADs serve on this committee. Follow the money. I'm happy for my Canes though. But imo UM and ND should have been the final 2 on the merits. -

It's always great to see Miami beat FSU....but a poor 4th quarter and let them back in it. Shouldn't be that close when it was 28-3, but seeing Nole fans go home angry in Trailerhassee is sweet. -
Colson....another bomb.....#21
-
Glad Colson got to 20 and we got a W finally. Even though we couldn't avoid 100 losses, at least we are likely to get to 60 wins which is a nice improvement
-
Sigh.....well we didn't deserve it anyway. Still dumb to take that penalty. At least we will beat CIN in a couple weeks because Burrow will be out several weeks. We will get killed by the Chargers next week tho Tough way to lose Chiefs losing makes it easier.

Nice bounceback game by Nix today....but our D is getting shredded and that was before Surtain got hurt. Offense carrying us so far....opposite of last week.

Yeah I've noticed that too. I think Purdue-USC was also delayed. Thankfully, the Canes absolutely obliterated USF even after the long delay. Got Florida coming in next week......who actually played much better than I thought they would at LSU....they probably would have won if Lagway wasn't throwing so many picks. -

Lightning delay in the early 2nd quarter. Miami 14 USF 3 Hopefully this delay won't last too long -

White Sox @ Detroit; Smith vs Flaherty 5:40pm CST
SoCalChiSox replied to Kyyle23's topic in 2025 Season in Review
Yep...these are the core positional pieces. -
I know Bowden is a clown, but in his recently published Top 50 prospects, he has Braden at #21 overall with the highest hit tool grade I have seen for Braden so far at 55. I thought that was generally supposed to be his weakness with the high K rate as FG has it at 40 and Pipeline at 50, so it was nice to see the 55. Here is the writeup: 21. Braden Montgomery, OF, Chicago White Sox (Double A) Age: 22 Bats: B Throws: R Height: 6-2 Weight: 220 Scouting Grades: HIT: 55 PWR: 60 RUN: 50 ARM: 65 FLD: 50 Montgomery is a complete player who will contribute with the bat and the glove. In the outfield, Montgomery is a sound defender with a right fielder’s arm. (He was a two-way player early in his college career.) Offensively, he’s going to hit for power and can steal a base, having fully recovered from the broken ankle he suffered during the 2024 NCAA Super Regionals. The switch-hitter has a great work ethic and feel for the game, as well as special leadership qualities. He was one of the headliners along with catcher Kyle Teel in the package the White Sox received for Garrett Crochet in the offseason trade with the Red Sox. He’s on a quick path to the majors and should arrive early next year. For more, see https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6587372/2025/09/03/top-mlb-prospects-rankings-griffin-wetherholt-mcgonigle/

Nice win

Really excited about young positional talent. The number of players historically that can play a solid SS and plausibly hit 40 bombs in a year is probably very, very small. IMO, this lineup will be ferocious when Bonemer is at 3B and Braden in RF.

It's par for the course for Cristobal. Thankfully, he built a roster strong enough to overcome his caveman tendencies, at least this time. They will still end up losing a couple games to inferior opponents this year just as we usually do. -

Thank God we survived Mario trying to throw it away by being overly conservative. He's a great recruiter but awful game day coach. Thankfully, the Canes DL ate Notre Dame's OL alive on the last drive. Go Canes! Hit. Stick. Bust Dick! -
