WhiteSox2023

PCA.

Seriously, Vaughn. Why didn’t you do this with the White Sox you chump? Once again, WE, the Brewers won the Civale trade.

I looked at the list and it’s ridiculous. https://www.mlb.com/amp/news/mlb-free-agents-2025-2026.html

Getz has about a 90%+ rate at “sneaking” players through waivers because most of the players are bad and no other team wants them.

You should already know the back story. This isn’t confusing. Wilson was the final piece of the Cease trade and was acquired solely to be flipped for additional prospect(s). He failed miserably after the Sox acquired him in 2024 to the tune of a -0.6 bWAR and was untradeable. Wilson was then signed for $950K in January of this year which is barely over the minimum. A month later, Wilson was DFA’ed so the Sox could claim Brandon Eisert off waivers. Not one team was willing to claim Wilson at only around $200K over the minimum salary. So while it’s nice that Wilson can now serve a role as a cheap reliever on a non-competitive team, he was acquired to be flipped but he wrecked his own value immediately after coming to the Sox from the Padres. Meanwhile, Liam Hendriks was a very well paid and good closer on a competitive Sox team. Not really a good comparison.

Fluke year. Wouldn’t go near him. Regardless, he’s going to want to sign somewhere to play CF anyways. Robert is getting his option picked up.

Brother Rice @ Notre Dame College Prep (Niles) Looks like they will stream the Sophomore and Varsity games back to back starting at 5:00 PM. Here’s the YouTube channel for the live streams… http://youtube.com/ndmediacrew

Hill will be non-tendered. I think Tauchman and Wilson will be tendered contracts. Regarding Wilson’s arbitration estimate, $1.5 million is only like twice the league minimum and Getz has to hope he has a great season so he can finally be flipped for the fourth prospect of the Cease trade. 🤣

I think Tauchman is a lock. The Sox can’t sign another RF as good as Tauchman for $3.4 million, even with his injury issues, and cheap is the key. If he makes it through Spring Training unscathed, he’s starting in RF on opening day 2026.

You already mentioned this but all the free agents are too old for this team. I would sooner see the Sox look for a team that wants to dump a bloated veteran contract and have that team pay the Sox in prospect(s) to take on their bad deal.

This guy sounds familiar. I think he may post here. 🤣

I believe the most money the Sox have eaten was when they cut Keuchel early in the 2022 season. They had to pay him around $13.5 million remaining in the final year of his deal and a $1.5 million buyout, so around $15 million in total.

Nah, he’ll be too depressed to post.

It’s going to happen again. Nothing can stop this Cubs train now.

Because Murphy already knows it’s over. No matter what decision he makes, the Cubs are completing the historic comeback.

You could throw Curt Schilling and his bloody sock on the mound for the Brewers. This series is ova.

And this ballgame is ova.

It doesn’t matter now. There’s no stopping the inevitable Cubs comeback.

Cubs gonna put the game away here.

Well, they still have a chance but you can’t win if you can’t hit and score runs.

This is choke city.

And that’s why you don’t give up valuable outs. Murphy is just another old school manager apparently.

Murphy is playing the long game in the 5th inning.

Not sure I bunt there down 3 runs but I guess Ortiz was up.
