Just saw this proposed on MLB network, but something like this is also a great framework for Crochet.

I was under the impression these were mostly older kids (seniors 22/23 years old) without any leverage.

Honestly, I was really hoping they would have him traded by now, but getting top dollar is more important than when, so if this is what it takes, cool.

Jerry has his checkbook out already.

That's what I keep reading anyway.

He obviously is begging to come here. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5648504/2024/07/22/yankees-juan-soto-future-championship-chances/

As with most of this roster, hopefully sooner than later.

I am pretty sure the latter is closer to the plan than the former, but you never know with the White Sox.

If they aren't, the White Sox are in deep, deep, DEEP trouble. Their top position player prospects took steps back this year, or at least didn't take any steps forward. if they aren't trading for these guys, they have nothing on the horizon which is going to cover all of those holes.

Looking at the Braves, unless they are willing to take pitching, they aren't a good match.

This. Somewhere around the end of the top 100, and another kind of a just missed guy should be the headliners of a Fedde deal. Between his performance and his absolute bargain of a contract, dude shouldn't be cheap. 2 end of the top 10 guys is more like the price of Kopech.

That's fine. I know not everyone does. I just don't see the players we already lost, plus the development time already lost for kids in the system for the couple of guys that actually do generate some sort of modest return. it makes sense at a place like SS, where we had no one, but the parade of terrible OFs to block guys like Colas, Fletcher and DeLoach never made sense, especially when Getz himself traded for those last two guys. There is a whole list of relievers out there that Getz release who would have also really helped the Sox, such as a Declan Cronin, or even Bailey Horn who we traded a guy for, and then released in short order.

Especially since they had earlier said they were pushing his schedule ahead to try to get him back quicker anyway.

There has been nothing about Getz tenure in his 11 months so far that looks anything different than the previous one, except he completely lacks the patience to wait out a move or a plan. I see it in the Cease deal, the roster churning losing young players who could have helped the team this year in favor of guys we ended up releasing anyway, and even the draft seemingly overpaying guys they didn't need to so as compared to the rest of MLB. Maybe that changes over time, but I haven't seen it so far.

I would first perfer they didn't rush guys, and then second that they didn't put people's medical details into public to make them look bad when it comes to certain players.

I can offer you hiring the next guy in line from the biggest failure in baseball.

Hopefully Captain Panic figures this one out, it's only the future of the franchise at stake. No biggie.

The clash of themes being presented here is my favorite part of this. 1. They anticipated this. 2. He's healthy 3. He can't handle this. I have no idea why the White Sox like to embarass certain players so much, but here we are again.

We could 100% regret that one, but the hamstrings thing gives me pause with the history we have here.

Cags 45 Hagen 46. This is going to be one of those long running Soxtalk debates.

So much for rushing them back before the deadline. I did also like the subtle victim blaming of Moncada where the Sox are saying he's not really hurt, he just thinks he's hurt, so he shut it down that is later on in this article.

Unless that is over 150k per signing, that doesn't count towards the caps. And I would be shocked if we spent a million on those signings. I would guess it is more like 100,000 between the nine players.

Who should he have gone to next?
