White Sox Acquire Kyle Crick
South Side Hit Men replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I’m happy with it. No risk, possible reward. He was a 1st rounder and was solid a few years ago. Many pitchers leave Pirates and vastly improve with additional coaching. Hoping Katz can turn him into a bullpen piece this year or next (should be a low cost arb piece if he can show improvement this year). -
Because all games today are this evening, and they didn't want teams with afternoon games to pull / not start players under consideration.

Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
South Side Hit Men replied to Baron's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Yes, but it’s better he saves his Australian pal as the closer for low leverage 3/4 run leads, than Kimbrel and Kopech (sadly stuck in Tony’s bullpen spiderweb), who could pitch in far more important situations. Still think he’s headed to Boston or the two teams that don’t give a rats ass about the bullshit “luxury” tax (NYM / SD), with NYY being a long shot if the Cubs eat the entire salary (they too fret over the luxury tax despite record revenues). -
Wonder who is going to pitch for the Twins the rest of the season besides Maeda and if they hold onto him, Pineda. Can see Happ DFA’d soon, even though they are desperate for arms. If they trade Buxton your looking at a possible 100 loss team. Of course, the Sox only have one more series left with them.

Is Vaughn turning into a legit ROY candidate?
South Side Hit Men replied to Greg Hibbard's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Andrew Vaughn up to 12th in WAR among all rookies per Fangraphs, with Madrigal one of the twelve ahead of him. Baddoo or Haase may be his biggest competitors for AL ROY honors. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&type=8&season=2021&month=0&season1=2021&ind=2&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&startdate=&enddate= # Name Team G PA HR R RBI SB BB% K% ISO BABIP AVG OBP SLG wOBA xwOBA wRC+ BsR Off Def WAR 12345678910...

Eloy's Groin Injury Thread
South Side Hit Men replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I'm thinking he comes back this weekend, probably give him any extra day off so that he is 100% clear on Saturday in whatever role. Tony didn't seem to upset about it, just hadn't checked with the trainers after the game. -

South Side Hit Men replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Tony said post game he has nothing "official" to add at this point. They will give it 24-48 hours and see how he is. -

Billy Hamilton, still awesome! -
Would really like to see Hahn come back tomorrow with Kimbrel for nothing major, per the Athletic Boston seems to be the one team in the running. Not sure why the Dodgers wouldn't be interested. https://theathletic.com/2738577/2021/07/29/rosenthals-mlb-trade-deadline-news-latest-from-major-league-sources-on-craig-kimbrel-kris-bryant-max-scherzer-more/

White Sox acquire Tepera, Bailey Horn to Cubs
South Side Hit Men replied to KrankinSox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Honest question: Who is on the hook for Tepera's incentives, the Cubs or Sox? Want the answer more so for Dallas Keuchel or other future acquisitions/trades. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/07/cubs-trade-ryan-tepera-white-sox.html Already earned $1.1M this season. He will get $50K more after spending his 120th day on the active roster. He will get $100K more after two more games (reaching game #45). He will get $150K after reaching games 50 (7 more games) and 55 (12 more games). He will get $200k if he reaches 60 games (17 more games). -

It took brass balls to open the game thread with that lineup. -
White Sox perspective https://theathletic.com/2739085/2021/07/29/white-sox-acquire-cesar-hernandez-from-cleveland-to-fill-second-base-need-as-al-central-race-peters-out/?source=rss&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Cleveland perspective Miller is getting the first shot, Gimenez will not come up at least until after the Toronto series, since he is applying for permanent US residency, and cannot leave the country during the process.

Hoping to see Lopez (4-5) Heuer (6), Crochet (7) and Ruiz (8) today. -
White Sox acquire Tepera, Bailey Horn to Cubs
South Side Hit Men replied to KrankinSox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
They could use a 1-2 more relievers (7-8 inning guys), transition Kopech to long relief / starting. Happy with the deal, glad they didn't send Lopez. -

I'd keep Jake Lamb over Goodwin, Tony won't play Lamb in CF. -
7/29/21 White Sox @ Royals @1:10
South Side Hit Men replied to wegner's topic in 2021 Season in Review
Yes, but the Sox needs him to pitch the 8th with a four run lead. Win today, Kopech can start when/if Tony ever leaves. -

Well, it may get ugly early today. Wouldn't mind seeing Carlos have a 4 inning outing, save his arm. -

Carlos starting at the 92-93 MPH 4 seem range, hope it rises early with the heat. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/gamefeed?date=7/29/2021&gamePk=633141&chartType=pitch&legendType=pitchName&playerType=pitcher&inning=&count=&pitchHand=&batSide=&descFilter=&ptFilter=&resultFilter=&hf=pitchVelocity#633141
