Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 This is a move I really don't like for the 2nd starter spot, but in reality it's probably not much worse or better than any of the other bums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my mind he pitched 5 games for the Yankees and gave up 50 runs. In reality, he pitched zero games for them lol and was actually solid in Milw.

maxjusttyped Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 1.4 fWAR in 87 innings. Decent enough peripherals, actually better than Keuchel's. They could do worse as Nova replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Sure. Why not. Hope we grab another arm too though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Nice - totally cool with Gio as our #5 for the first couple months. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysterySource5000 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Now this would be funny...once...twice...third time he will actually pitch for us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 His FIP's the last three years: 4.04, 4.16, 3.93. He's actually fine as the second acquisition. I would have preferred a higher ceiling younger guy, but I get banking on the safer veteran to fill a hole for a few months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Welcome back. Solid veteran (presuming he is our #5/depth move). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I'm excited to finally see him pitch in a Sox uniform. No problem with this as one of the moves for SP. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 I like it. We need a lefty in the rotation and he adds depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could do far worse from a hopefully fifth starter I like the move, as Gonzalez is probably the best backend starter still on the market and gives us a left hander in the rotation. Should not be more than a reasonable one year deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
