Dick Allen Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Wasn’t Goldschmidt having a tough time catching up to fastballs the first couple of months last season? Obviously he turned it around, so it most likely was mechanical. But it does make you wonder moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxwinner Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Theory: The sox were so confident after the November 19th meeting with harper that they have shifted their total focus to him and thus not quite as active in the starting pitching market.

fathom Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 reports on twitter that Tampa was trying to get Goldschmidt also. Wonder if they turn their attention to Nelson Cruz now, or even possibly Abreu? I know I mentioned him in the creative trades thread, but Jose Martinez would be a great DH for someone.

Balta1701 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I hear Heyman reported the Reds are in after Pollock and Keuchel, has anyone else seen that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 What a gross deal for Carrasco, and great deal for the Tribe. I did not, however, realize Carrasco will be pitching next season at age 32. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have elaborated whitesoxwinner that's my bad. I disagree with the part about them not pursuing pitching and focusing on Harper. They're on other players that aren't Harper and would include pitcher. I am not sure how much there is to do with Harper. Obviously it's one of the sport's biggest if not the biggest free agent pursuit ever. It's this or A-Rod back in the early 2000's. Regardless, Boras and/or Harper control the pace. I think the Sox just have a waiting game with sporadic efforts towards due diligence to make sure they're not getting played. I think most of the heavy lifting is done.

Do you think Boras will convince harper not to sign next week and wait some more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keuchel does have some Buehrle qualities that I could see them being interested in. Edited December 7, 2018 by fathom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
