I bet Collins stays over Seby but I will guess that Collins gets dealt somewhere this off-season based on nothing. And then have a better defensive catcher as a backup next year.
I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you as I have no idea what the Sox opinion on both guys is at the moment. I personally just don’t see the point of keeping Collins over Seby.

Sheets will go down because he has options.
Yes. Especially with Goodwin destroying righties this year. I think we’re all happy with Sheets first impression here but he’s the logical one to go down here.
Also, is there any reason to keep Collins over Seby? Is it cause he hits right handers ok? I just don’t get that at this point.

Cleveland just handed that game to us and I’ll absolutely take it. Also, I think Rick fired up Liam in the best way possible. That dude was jacked up tonight lol.

Nick was polarizing til the end here. Wish him nothing but the best and think he’ll be a good(not great) player for a long time in this league.

And we got Cesar for next year too if we want so no it didn’t open another hole, at least not until 2023.

I'm a fan of Madrigal and I think Codi eventually in the next year or two goes back to what he was last year but I'm happy we're going for it this year. Trading Nick and Codi doesn't kill anything going forward and acquiring Kimbrel really helps with our chances this season. I'm all for it.

I like Burger but I don’t think he has as much value as some people seem to believe he does.

I think we'd all prefer our rebuild go the way of the Astros rather than the Cubs.
I’ll take either.

I think that's a fair way to put it, but I think we should all expect more than just "the minimum."
I'm not asking them to make moves like the Dodgers did, but I feel like they are going to rest on the "Eloy/Robert/Grandal are going to be our deadline moves, we really didn't have to do much" line and I just can't agree with that. Don't just be OK, get greedy. Go for it. Be loaded with talent.
They just don't operate that way...
This is exactly where I’m at. The fact that the other AL contenders have added some heavy hitters makes it more difficult to accept the bare minimum.

I’m fine with this. He’s an average starting 2b and as much as I’d love a big fish I really don’t think we have the trade assets to pull that off. Go get a few arms and go from there.

Imagine if I told you yesterday the white Sox were going to get Escobar and Gallo without giving up Kelley or anyone on the hit league roster (no Robert either just to avoid that loophole). Wouldn’t you be in? For almost whatever it takes?
Even Add Kelley and I’m fine with it.

Boooooooo. No removing players except for trades
Should be a rule less than a week from the deadline. Don’t care how hurt you are, have to stay in the game damn it!

But seriously, everyone here has seen Vaughn play defense. No one is solely relying on fangraphs to judge his defense though it’s always nice when stats back up your eyes. The fact is, even people that wanted nothing to do with him playing lf(myself included) will tell you he’s been much better out there than expected and he’s absolutely serviceable out there in his first year ever playing the position. You’re being stubborn just to be stubborn.

I always judge my outfielders defense by shoe size.

I wouldn’t shut him down but skipping him every now and again and maybe go to a 6 man rotation for a bit if the division lead affords it. I think you somehow need to manage his innings while not completely stopping him and starting him over if that makes sense.

Ha I forgot about that. That was a really funny DJ moment that hawk didn't appreciate
That 1-0 game actually took place on my birthday during my Freshman year in Carbondale. 16 years later, I still remember Jacque Jones ruining my 18th birthday. What a dick.

Just now, Chicago White Sox said:
Fully agree. I do like Sheets but selling high on him now would likely be the prudent thing to do. I still think a Gallo or Marte for RF is a must.
Not sure if I agree that getting a Gallo or Marte is a must(I'd obviously love to have either) but I completely agree with what you said about Sheets. If you can sell high on Sheets right now or in a few weeks, go do it.

If the right deal can be made for a lefty masher...it doesn't matter if they are a 2B or an outfielder...you make that move. Eloy or Robert can definitely have a setback, and not one of the prospects is a sure fire thing. LOVE that Eloy is ahead of schedule, but this team still needs help....especially because Grandal being out for longer than 5 weeks is surely possible.
Yup, completely agree.

Tony is exactly why I am shocked Eaton got let go. Those two were made for each other.
I almost wonder if Rick saw Eaton batting leadoff yesterday and said nope fuck this, we ain't doing that anymore.

I think Vaughn is gonna be just fine against righties. Like we should maybe keep playing him against them.

I got an alert today saying "Another Sox OF to the IL." "Adam Engel lands on IL".

He’s 8 billion times better behind the plate than Collins. All Collins brings to the table is he’s ok against rhp.
