Probably where his girlfriend or wife is from. Except $25 million of the $100 was incentive-based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a safe bet considering what AZ's offer was and Bumgarner's own preference to stay in the NL and West Coast. If he were to sign with the White Sox, they would have had to overpay. It's just the state of doing business with a team that hasn't been to the playoffs in over a decade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.S.D.D. Or they could go even cheaper and just choose to run with their current rotation and pray for the best. We seriously might see Dylan Covey in the rotation again. Fuck Jerry. If Dylan Covey gets any starts next season that aren’t due to multiple injuries to the rotation, Hahn should be fired. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Covey will not be in the rotation to open the season. I really wish that comment would disappear on here and twitter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 At least the market is moving quickly. We don’t have to speculate for much longer. We will know whether or not they are serious about contending soon. If they don’t land a good pitcher, I will lose it guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I hope that Bumgarner had no interest in leaving the NL West, otherwise this is just ridiculous for the Sox to not bite at that price point. I would have given him a 4 year deal at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, I’ll need to see some proof. I have a hard time believing a guy would turn down an extra $15 million dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 (edited) Madbum would not be good at GRF. Fine not doing this. But ya, it’s getting thin. Doubt Ryu is in the cards with the teams that still need SP. Keuchel and a 1 year deal is probably what we get.
