caulfield12 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 LBJ (although it sounds more like a Hawkism) said, ‘Sometimes you just have to hunker down like a jackass in a hailstorm and just take it.” So that’s where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to start being smart and aggressive, enough of being vanilla, this management owes it to this fan base, we have waited enough, we deserve it, do not let them off, they r making a lot of money, us fans deserve to be proud , we are the White Sox, enough of this 2nd team stuff, LET'S GO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Thing with yanks Dodgers and Cubs and the big 2 is that signing either puts them in luxury tax situation for remainder of contract especially yanks and Cubs as all the young talent will need to be paid soon. Sure cub will drop a Lester and hamels but that money goes to retain current talent or sign a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 What about Kikuchi? He was posted on the 3rd and has to agree to a contract by January 2nd. That’s something that could have “escalated quickly over the last two weeks” and could be expected to be announced before New Years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is abreu to houston for Davis or fisher, and minor leaguer, that's my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I got. Yasmani Grandal because we are cornering the market on players whose names start with Y and Cubans ,He's also very close to Alonso . Would be so much fun if Alonso got us Grandal and Machado. If that happened I'd pick up his 2nd year right away. BTW I don't really believe this. When everyone was believing it I said not gonna happen because of the lost pick draft and Castillo being a Manny bud wasn't going to be knocked out of the starting catchers gig. But I gotta admit it's a fun thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
