Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I would guess the 100 million dollar offer is from the White Sox, but who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets just hope this is the last year in at least half a decade where we straight up run out of starting pitchers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense without even using WAR/advanced stats. Say Wheeler makes around 30 starts and we win about 18 of those games (rough estimate). How many of the starts by those four guys did we win last year? Around 11 or 12? Sounds about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

centerfieldsixers Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 what I mean that the sox are the one who offered. Just gut feeling becuase that is how they operate. there not going more than 100 on a pitcher. Pressuring him to sign. agent uses media as leverage. no fake tweets here just offering subtle opinion For a Pitcher Your 2019-2020 off season Chicago White Sox...Whaaaat??!!??

BackDoorBreach Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I don't see the Reds going that high. Their staff is already pretty good and they need SS and an OF still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THOUGH, castellanos at cinci's stadium is some whiplash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I do not see or hear anything at this point showing the Sox as Wheeler's destination. Plan B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sockin Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Sorry to bring it back around to this but the Twins not having met with Wheeler just reminds me of the Padres not having met with Machado last offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
