ChiSox59 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Just now, ChiSox59 said: INTL bonus pool money going to PIT. What is the status of the current bonus pool money? Is this a situation of the Sox trading away dollars they effectively couldn't use, or is this them trading away dollars that could be used for Colas and/or Cespedes? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 1. I dont think you can trade int money so I'm confused. The period already ended. 2. The sox traded for dyson to run bases in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the 10th inning extra runner out there, and the extra roster spots for the playoffs, he could be a great tool as a PR and replacement OF. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a better use of a roster spot than Luis Gonzalez. But hopefully we didn't just trade away dollars we could use for Colas/Cespedes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either we didn't win the derby or we didn't need the dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 They either know they are not getting colas or Cespedes so they are spending there into money for somebody that runs bases although with Anderson and Robert on the team I see little fit for a guy who can’t swing a bat. This is super surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to have traded dollars from the current period that I thought was already over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy Harold Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) It seems to be current period $, which is fine I guess. If they ain't using it might as well get the fastest OF in the majors or whatever. Edited August 28, 2020 by Sleepy Harold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Soxfan Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Reiterating what everyone else said. How can the Sox have high hopes to sign International Free Agents and keep trading away space. Don’t get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am stabbing in the dark here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
