  1. That’s true. The Sox can only control their side of the equation and they could feel confident even if Hendriks doesn’t truly feel that way. They are also dealing with the same agent but it’s time to put the Machado stuff to rest. I would hope they learned their lesson from Machado. They went in hot with offers for Grandal, Keuchel and Wheeler (who may be the only professional athlete the world that actually left money on the table for geography so I can’t blame them for the outcome). I doubt they are pursuing Hendriks in a way that’s even close to Machado. They reportedly signed Eaton to afford him. They seem to be either completely out on players and vocal about it or in on players and serious about. I think half way pursuits are a thing of the past.
  2. ??? In response to this from CSFM: Give me ONE bold White Sox related prediction that you have for 2021. mine: Eloy Jimenez will hit 50 home runs (assuming there is a full 162 game season)
  3. Looked at his Twitter followed by MLB Network, Not Steve, Al’s Beef and Dan Evans. Also says he’s an attorney so I don’t know if he would just go and play insider. That gives them more credibility to me.
  4. So there is another insider? Who is this guy basically tweeting the same thing Beef tweeted earlier lol
  5. Has anyone seen confirmation of this? That’s horrible if true
  6. Jesse Rogers is saying this but even if you remove the food guys and Cishek, everyone who is connected to the Sox (Merkin, Nightengale, the NBC Sports guys and James Fox) say otherwise. They let us know instantly they could not afford Brantley which was pathetic that they did that but have not done so with Hendriks. I’m staying optimistic.
  7. I still believe they need to get a reliable guy like Quintana. Rotation is not deep.
  8. “ They didn’t need to beat out the White Sox this time, to land Snell, the 2018 AL Cy Young winner who is under contract for another three seasons. The South Siders bolstered their starting staff with a deal for Lance Lynn earlier this month. And while it’s indeed nicer to have four frontline pitchers than three, the White Sox seem confident in Dylan Cease and Michael Kopech at the back end of the rotation and that new pitching coach Ethan Katz can get them near the level of Lucas Giolito, Dallas Keuchel and Lynn, three top-seven finishers in the 2020 AL Cy Young vote.” Lol I guess their second SP acquisition was Ethan Katz working with Cease and Kopech
  9. Padres paid a decent price but to pull off trades for Clevinger and Snell in a matter of months and still have so much depth is extremely impressive.
  10. kiss of death for those that remember the Zack Wheeler report he had lol
  11. I think those are mostly good options but none are better than Musgrove
  12. I really feel like the Sox have a shot. If they didn’t, I think we would have heard by now from a Sox leak.
  13. Merry Christmas guys, I know it’s been a hard year for a bunch of people. I pray you and your families are healthy and have a great day! God bless!
  14. In the right hands, this guy becomes a legit #2-3
  15. Bernie was also CONVINCED that the Whitesox would spend on big free agents earlier in the offseason and defended Reinsdorf until they signed Eaton. So take this opinion with a grain of salt.
  16. And then he used Harold Reynolds as a hypothetical player when he was interviewed on MLB Network. Lol
