  1. Jack also has the White Sox fan disorder overlay on top of the other stuff. There should be a diagnosis code in the DSM-IV for Chicago White Sox fan disorder. That by itself would probably reduce someone's GAF score from normal to at least 60 just by itself and maybe even into the 50s.
  2. If they could get someone to eat like even 5m of the salary that would be so awesome.
  3. If they could turn him into a platoon LH 2B that would be incredible and to get the salary off the books instead of LH would be great.
  4. Chisholm for TA+. RH, bring me the savage Jazz Chisholm at once!
  5. How does Gleyber address the need for left handed power? I'll hang up and listen.
  6. But u can't have it both ways dude. By that logic the Sox should never sign anyone because they will suck and if they then don't sign anyone, people will complain that they didn't sign anyone even tho those same people are saying if they paid for someone it would be a waste. You can't have it both ways, dude. We have a 2.5-3 WAR LH savage player that will also allow Eloy to prolly play 120+ games and likely hit 30+ HRs again without losing multiple outs in the field. All for 15m. Even Eeyore wouldn't complain too much about this deal.
  7. He was smokescreening like I thought. They were pushing Gallo too hard which made no sense if he was the real target since the FO likes to operate in secret.
  8. Jack you have to enjoy *something* when they at least try to significantly address issues and spend legit money otherwise what's the point dude unless this is just a shtick to get a reaction out of people like Ron.
  9. I bet Hendriks to TOR for Jansen (in some form or another) is the next move. Balances out payroll and addresses C for the next two years. Foodies are also implying a BP trade is coming soon. At that point just add a 4th OF and low salary LH platoon 2B and they're prolly good to go I bet unless they get something huge for TA.
  10. Yep.....at GRF he definitely can give them more power than he's shown...and the upgrade defensively in LF from Eloy is massive. Eloy at DH only should hopefully be able to play 120+ games even with some inevitable injuries. If he can play 120+, he should go back to 30+ HRs...esp with this staff emphasizing power over contact.
  11. 15 AAV is perfectly good for a 2.5 to 3 WAR player. Only thing is the 5th year...but honestly no one decent is gonna play here unless you put a cherry on top of the sundae. FO did good here.
  12. Solid move. LH bat, high OBP and good D. Should be 2.5 to 3 WAR player so 15m AAV is fine for that. Did very well vs ALC. Maybe the power might come back in our park. They prolly had to add that 5th year to secure him, but at least they are actually addressing multiple needs for once, and it's better to slightly overpay (in the form of years) than to do nothing at all. You have to give FO their due when they do something good and I'm happy to give them credit for this. Good job RH, KW and PG. Now I'm bracing to see which player is going to be moved to balance the payroll. I'll bet Hendriks to TOR.
  13. Colas is the RF for 90 percent of the season so they only need some 4th OF to hold the fort for a month or so.
  14. If they can't finalize the deal with 10D, they can still trade for Kepler because it's clear MIN has already moved on.
  15. That's in line with most estimates. I bet 4/64. They prolly need to shed one of TA/Gio/LH pronto tho due to budget.
  16. Nice. I'm mystified that we can't afford anything one minute but somehow are prolly gonna shell out 4/70 or something in that area the next second. Either they have something lined up already to shed payroll or someone persuaded JR to ease up a bit. We know KW loved this kid going back to the draft and PG prolly also gave him a stamp of approval I assume from KC. His stats vs ALC are very good.
  17. Dude you have to call the dog 10D if we actually sign him...the kids will give u a strange look at first buy who cares
  18. That's what makes me think it's not Gallo tho. They are being too obvious about it and we know RH doesn't like media to blow up his work so maybe Gallo is just the smokescreen.
