Hopefully his free agency was a huge wakeup call.

Cool bring Rodon back. Katz better be a miracle worker or we're in trouble with the rotation.

You know your two stronger points you refuted with the actual facts about Cease.

So during the deadline we'll acquire him after Eaton gets hurt at some point.

God they wanted to give him 10 million and he wanted more. Yep no thanks. See you next year and try again.

Damn exactly what I was about to say. That and his fastball is hitting 88MPH. Rodon just needs to move on.

It's a repeat of last year. Difference is Lynn is in the rotation so that helps.

Huh? There's a difference between these guys aren't ideal for the starting rotation and these are the worst guys in baseball. We had the latter. Both of those guys didn't give us a chance to win games a good portion of their starts. I don't see how that magically changes.

That and maybe it's just me. But I'm not all the sudden expecting a change of pitching coach to turn Cease into a Cy Young pitcher and a repeat of Giolito. Cease has alot of issues to fix. What happened to all those people who were more than willing to let Cease battle it out and struggle in the playoffs?

Hector should be on the banned list of "insiders". He was obviously just throwing stuff at the wall and the food guys should be included too.

Can Hector go away for a while? Good lord this guy.

Cue the food guys "The White Sox had discussions with Marcus Semien at one point". "This might have been to distract the Twins "Eyes Emoji".

And this is ultimately a good lesson as to why the food guys aren't the end of be all. Right after Steve Stone tweeted that about Nelson Cruz the food guys did a 180. They have no info on this matter. None.

Honestly just their White Sox takes in general have me cringe sometimes. Makes you wonder.

Well it's probably because they have no solid info on it. They've been playing the "We're not afraid to get things wrong" game but clearly are. I'd rather them just not have the incarceratedbob twitter timeline and more solid info if they indeed have any.

Just reading what this has evolved into and from what I can recall. It looks like these guys want a piece of credit if Hector is correct. They've been saying no no to Cruz for months and as soon as theirs some differentiating opinions they start to hedge. Maybe they have good info? Who knows. But they've been throwing enough shit at the wall to make me ultra skeptical.

True. I just love how it could be a trade that shouldn't involve the White Sox whatsoever and they manage to fit them in. It's pretty painful actually.

Do you ever notice how according to the food guys the White Sox were in on every trade and free agent that signs?

Just not having to pitch against him would be helpful.

They are going to need to score as much as possible

I just found it amusing you put potential all star next to every prospect. That goes for another player in the league. Half or more of those prospects won't be all stars. We're at the point were they can deal those guys as long as we win. Not all of these guys are going to be playing for the White Sox.

You probably should of just went with that. First premise was silly.

Now. If rumors were true look at what Lance Lynn would have costed then and now. I was in favor of getting him anyway but the price would have been Kopech or Andrew instead of what we gave up.

Every player has AS potential on any given year. Does that mean keep the same team every year?
