Good. Hopefully this moves them off of Wheeler, leaving it to the Sox and Reds for him.

25/25/20/20/15/15. Boom.

It's down to the Sox, Reds, and Phillies I think. Get it done Jerry.

That's SoxTalk in a nutshell for ya.

Let's say the Sox offered $100 million a couple days ago, which it seems likely that they did. Wheeler's camp wanted to wait a few days to see if they would get a better offer. They did, from the Phillies, which is why everyone is freaking out right now. Wheeler's camp is probably going to circle back to the Sox tofay to see if they'll beat the Phillies offer. If they do, Wheeler will sign with the Sox. I'm not going to freak out until Rosenthal or Passan say he has officially signed elsewhere.

Why do the fucking Phillies always have to ruin everything

The panicking can stop. We’re still alive.

I feel like Olney’s tweet is a plant from Wheeler’s camp to get the Sox to raise their offer.

If anything I’m more concerned with the fact that Pederson would be a rental. As far as the platoon splits go, Leury could just play RF against lefties. He hit .311 with a .786 OPS against them last year which is more than respectable. And it’s not like there’s that many lefties anyway.

Look at who retweeted it

Wheeler’s other brother retweeted one of Mike’s other tweets lol

He isn’t following that many people either, so it’s kind of puzzling why he would be following a White Sox account. Good catch.

Jace Fry for Joc seems like it would make sense for both sides.

No posts in this thread for 15 minutes? Are you guys ok?

Olney’s tweet makes it seem like it’s a done deal. Hoping for the best.

Hector was right about the Machado stuff last year. I think he nailed the Sox offer perfectly

Do you guys think Joc would sign an extension if the Sox traded for him?

Blackmon is a product of Coors. Guy had a .731 OPS away from Colorado last season. No thanks.

Ryu can never stay healthy over a full season anyway. As long as the Sox get Wheeler, I don't care if Ryu goes to the Twins.

Hopefully Wheeler circles back to the Sox should a team outbid us. I think he probably would.

That is the logical way of looking at it. But with this front office, you never know.

Garfien is really pushing the Hamels to the Sox thing. I don’t get it.

Please tell me you’re not bullshitting us...
