The Beast

I have a feeling Mitch’s competition will be out of Tennessee. Either Tannehill or Mariota.

Put Mahomes on the Bears with this team and they wouldn’t be rolling like the Chiefs are with how many holes this team has. Mitch is a symptom of the problem but he is not the main problem.

Hopefully I’m surprised, but I don’t think the reliever or bat will be among the top remaining free agents or even players like Betts or Arenado.

Are you sure? I didn’t get that vibe from his tweet.

Does anyone know how the vesting option works yet?

Which is why he’s a softball coach now and not working in analytics in MLB.

Then fans should abandon a bad product then and speak with their wallets.

Then Hahn should be ripped in the media and at SoxFest. They can’t keep bringing in and using the same crap mediocre players (you all know who they are) and expecting to win, unless their goal is to collect second and third place finishes...

What’s likely now, Ryu and Keuchel, Keuchel and a rental and Price and Keuchel? I don’t see many more options has to bring in two pitchers. I don’t think there’s many of us that want them trotting out Covey every fifth day.

Encarnacion doesn’t matter without pitching. I just meant they can’t have too many 1B/DH/C options on the roster.

Evidently, but he was garbage when they called him up the first time. Let’s hope the momentum the second time carries into this year even though he may be at AAA.

But why Encarnacion, is the team supposed to be immobile with catching, 1B and DH types?

Good to see you posting back on here again. I read for the same reason you do, for the hot stove news nuggets and conversation but skim through the mass hysteria. From what I saw when Collins was up, he was a pile of hot garbage. That doesn’t mean he was as bad at AAA, but it does indicate this will be a make or break year for him as he will be 25. I don’t understand why Encarnacion would be added to the mix, especially before they address their pitching flaws, unless they are intending on dealing Collins or McCann. There are a lot of holes to fill still.

If that’s the best news the dude is going to report on, this offseason is going to suck. They better sign some pitchers before they really look like shit with their lack of moves and spending (Grandal should have just been the start).

Agreed, especially with how many rumors aren’t true.

And as usual, the White Sox don’t do shit or miss out.

I like Bumgarner, just not to the tune of $100 million.

Why does Covey deserve more starts after how bad he has been in his tenure with the White Sox?

How bad would Bumgarner and Keuchel be?

Can someone show me the Tweet or proof we have that the Sox offered more money?

We need to recruit him to Soxtalk.

Let’s hope we don’t have the dude who had weird updates on Machado start posting with rumors again. I wish I remembered that dude’s name, but it was a waste of time following his leads. The Sánchez move has to mean something like a Wheeler signing, right?

I don’t think the money spent on Machado should include Abreu, they probably budgeted for him years ago. You would think they would think in terms of new money and that they would be able to get Wheeler and other players. There is so much payroll flexibility.

It looks like he’s the incumbent hitting coach and coached with the Angels and Brewers before. Too bad his career didn’t make him an every day player but he played a decent amount. Wonder what he would have been with the White Sox if he hadn’t been traded.
