Sleepy Harold

That makes a lot of sense to me. If he was hurt, which he was, and tried pitching through it, his stuff shouldn't be anywhere near his norms, which it wasn't in 2020. If he's working his way back from surgery, he's probably not topping out at max velo at this juncture, as he's building back up strength & what not. I think it'd be way more alarming if it said he was hitting 89 or something.

I'd guess the MLB would file that under the "You Can't Do That" department and not be very pleased with the White Sox.

Good news from the White Sox perspective

No, he still falls under the INTL signing rules.

The previous signing period ended on October 15, and the new one beings on January 15. Nobody could sign between then, so everything is just waiting for the next period to open. Teams most likely had their agreements reached before the period got pushed back, so the money has (for the most part) been spoken for for months.

Badler broke it, but James did recently mention some Sox interest in Cespedes. It was either on Twitter or on the FutureSox board, don't exactly remember which one.

I know, I'm just playing around.

It's all coming together now ??

Ahhhh so fathom is the hater of us shorts, good to know!

"As many as 20 teams" sent reps to watch his workout. I hope one was sent from the Sox.

Look at you, taking shots at my fellow vertically challenged brethren.

Here is the snippet regarding Colas.

Badler sheds some light on the Colas situation now, saying that it is possible he waits for the next signing period.

Merk's on the case now too

correction here, the burger got the age wrong.

Interesting if this is indeed the approach they take.

Per his agreement, they'll make him bat lefty bc of Org need.

It was a misappropriation of funds then, and looks even worse now.

Colas still has yet to be cleared to sign, but had the signing period not been pushed back, it could've been more possible than it seems at the moment. Unless Oscar wants to wait until next Jan to sign ?

Mentions that Cespedes looks likely to sign with the Sox for around 2M.

Beef!
