My issue with Odor is he just hasn't shown any upside in recent years. He's a negative defender since 2019 per DRS (OAA was more favorable towards him until last season), and while his career OPS against RHP may be .725, from 2019 to now it's been .678, .737 (2020 short season), .625, and .645. That's putrid production.

Cancer sucks, f*** cancer. I wish Liam nothing but the best and hope he has a speedy recovery.

Odor's savant page induces nausea. A NRI? I guess, sure. Dude had a 645 OPS vs righties last year and was a bad defender, and also has been below lg avg hitter since 2017. I'd much rather let Lenyn run with 2B than have this as the alternative.

The "Basically Stay Healthy" plan, the White Sox should be blowing his phone up then.

Of everything that went wrong last season, the team's handling of injuries (for the majority of the season, not so much post-TLR) is still the most puzzling aspect to me.

Official now

That over parts of ten seasons is absolutely putrid.

Some video on the Sox upcoming signing

They do in the minors with relative ease so I don't envision it being an issue.

Yeah the pitch clock in action is fantastic, wish they would've done it sooner.

Yeah as like a gimmick jersey or especially a giveaway I'd be all over those, and I couldn't care less about the Bulls. I'd rather see those than the '83s at this point.

You'd think the stadium would have to be OAK or TB.

I remember going to the first TB series in April after a Sox win (think they were 6-3 at the time) and thinking to myself, "Ok, maybe this actually is a good team", promptly followed by that losing streak and the excuses of "it's cold/it's early/injuries/etc ". Thankfully the minors kept me distracted from the clown show that was the ML club. Seeing the individual progress down there and making my first trip to the affiliates was memorable in an otherwise trainwreck of a baseball season.

Blasphemy, TA is a C in my heart

Here's another horrendous trade idea from a Mets fan in case anyone wanted a good laugh this morning.

If Rick could pull this off, I'd be down.

a minors deal or NRI, sure, shouldn't be anything more than that.

He was 7 on FGs list last year, he was in the 20s if I recall correctly on Pipeline when the trade went through. FG seems to be the biggest fans of his.

Colas has received positive reports in the scouting community about his defensive ability this season. He's someone who can handle CF but someone you probably don't want to depend on as your everyday CF because he doesn't have the speed you'd like your CF to have. He wouldn't be Rob Mackowiak out there. With that being said I wouldn't want to depend on him as the backup CF. Someone needs to be brought in to take care of that. I'd want to let him focus on RF and learning to hit at the ML level.
