Would you be seething if nothing happened and we went into spring training as is?
I think you’re going to be seething either way. I can’t think of a plausible scenario where you won’t be seething to be honest. A lot of us are disappointed right now.
I’m starting to think that Hahn really does have a deal in place for David Price and he’s just waiting on the Sawks to throw in more cash. I can’t think of any other reason he’s not signing any of the guys left.
The White Sox would have to offer WAY more money to get Ryu or Keuchel... and I still don’t think that would get them. I can see both of them leaving White Sox money on the table to be with a team on the west coast or a team ready to contend.
I bet we could have gotten a boatload for Moncada... probably a young stud MLB outfielder and some cheap pitching. Make Gio available at the deadline since we won't be able to pay them. Keep recycling talent for younger, cheaper talent.
Gotta respect the owners who put winning ahead of profits. I think Sox ownership will continue to have a low payroll as long as fans keep showing up and spending money.
I can't stand Artie Moreno but I have to respect the Angels for at least trying. I hope they succeed and get Trout some help. I'd be glad to see them get Rendon, Ryu and Price.
