Perfect Vision Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 So Blue Jays and Cardinals have signed starters today. Either could possibly still be in on Ryu or Keuchel, but less likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Friday Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Didn't know where to post this, but for whatever reason the website doesn't work - at all - on my cell phone anymore. It's a regular old iPhone so pretty common. No idea why. Works fine on my laptop. I assumed the site was down for the last couple weeks until today. Anyone else have this problem?

I think the Sox simply don’t want Collins as the primary backup, so they’re not going to trade McCann for scraps just because they signed Grandal. McCann has minimal trade value, so why not just keep him instead of acquiring a piece that will never matter? Grandal spending more time than he had at DH and 1B could help him stay fresh late in the year when he’s struggled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then I looked back at his stats and saw that Carlton actually started 10 games for the Sox and had a 3.69 ERA and thought "hey I'll take a flyer on that" ?

That twitter chain just shows how miserable White Sox fans are. On twitter, they honestly appear to be the most miserable group of fans in professional sports and it's nauseating to read.

Southwest Sider Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Cashman was on MLB Network yesterday talking about the Cole signing. He used phrases such as (and I'm paraphrasing here) "Ownership wanted to do this for the fans." "Ownership is committed to winning at all costs." "We know there is significant risk in this contract, but it takes risks to win championships." And so on. The White Sox cant be the Yankees.. but they aren't even one tenth of the Yankees. The Yankees are the deer you just ran over with your car, the Sox are a fly you ran into. The Sox have built this reality that they live in. Is Sox Twitter too toxic? Tough shit, maybe they should stop being such a risk adverse piece of garbage franchise and give the fans something to be excited about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
