TheFutureIsNear Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Nothing to get upset about but he wouldn’t have been a bad stop gap 3B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct why should I get upset this shows that the White Sox are getting Machado, not a chance these guys will never choose the whitesox, NEVER. YOU CAN PUT THAT ON THE BOARD.

Buehrle>Wood Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 28 year old utility player with a below .300 OBP the last two seasons. Meh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

username Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Yolmer has been significantly better the last two years by fWAR, has more control and is younger. I am muy confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opinion, just looked at the Astros fans responses, all realize they just stole him, we need to improve in anyway we can and this would have been an improvement.

We have a better, $5M reserve IF in Yolmer plus an interesting kid in Rondon. There is no fit here for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackout Friday Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Come on guys, he’s got a point. Only the White Sox should acquire players because resources and roster spots are unlimited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrathofhahn Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Who cares about Diaz? He isn;t even good. Trent Thorton is more then I'd be willing to pay. Would you give up Ian Hamilton for Diaz? I wouldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What stats, 1 stat, by a few points, Diaz has a better ops, hr., Batting ave. , less strikeouts, all I was saying was he would have been a positive pick up without giving up anything, we need to improve our major league team, and he would have been an improvement for the whitesox.

No offense, but reserve infielder should be amongst the lowest of priorities to improve this team. We have a couple capable options and any potential upgrade would represent diminishin returns. We have much bigger fish to fry and should be allocating our resources to those spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes our roster sucks and many many guys that sign with other teams or get traded might fit us . That doesn't mean Hahn is a sleep at the wheel . It just means there are 29 other teams that will be making moves We can't moan about everyone other teams get and we don't . It's a total meathead reaction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
