ChiSoxJon Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Wonder if he comes back for less, very open to that and have a quality bench asset If not, best of luck to a great guy I've been watching since A ball 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why expose him to waivers instead of just non-tendering him? Especially a week before he even needs to be offered a contract. This comes off as a needing to clear a 40-man spot.

chitownsportsfan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Maybe a trade happening where non 40 man prospects are shipped out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Maybe this is to do Yolmer a solid. I would imagine someone is going to claim him and probably try to work something out before they have to tender him. There are several ways they could go if a roster spot is immediately needed. It also wouldn’t surprise me if Yolmer eventually found his way back at a lower figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GermanSoxFan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 So I guess this means Leury is the opening day 2B when Madrigal is sent down to prove he is ready for two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much more likely Leury is in CF and a veteran bench piece we add is playing 2B For the first couple weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you planned on non-tendering Yolmer on Monday, then he’s without question the guy you cut to open up a roster spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once he finds out there isn’t $5 million or so out there for him, he might be of a different thought. He was a 1.0 WAR player hitting as bad as he has for years even with a juiced ball I am as sick of him as anyone, but if you go by WAR at all to pay guys, he isn’t going to take $2 or $3 million until he has no other choice. And if that’s all that is out there, coming back might be his choice. Edited November 25, 2019 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is Madrigal is extended in the last days of ST just like Eloy. Just need to see him have a solid Spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but It would be a miracle if a guy like Viera made it to spring training still on the 40 any way. There are several in the same boat.

I think they have a list of all players they will tender and the order in which they do doesnt matter. As Dick said, this could be doing Yolmer a solid.

As Dick said, this could be doing Yolmer a solid. Yolmer is the only guy we’re non-tendering, so your point isn’t really applicable. However, there are four or five pitchers on the 40 man roster who are candidates to be outrighted when we do add players but there’s simply no reason to cut them lose yet if we plan on non-tendering Yolmer in a week.

oldsox Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Sox had two other utility type infielders in 2019 -- Goins and Rondon -- and Yolmer was much better at both Short and Third than both of them.

GermanSoxFan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Well good thing then that neither of these three will be on the team next year. Yolmer could still be back btw. no team is going to tender him a contract for his arb price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way thinks Yolmer is terrible, he’s just not worth $6M+ to be a reserve infielder behind Moncada, Anderson, & Madrigal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
