Baron Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Just now, Dick Allen said: With Robert in CF and Engel on the bench for the late innings, I am not too concerned the nextp Sox RF is gold glove quality. I'd rather them not have -20 to -30 runs in the two outfield positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the roster we have and the cap room Rick Hahn has created by locking everyone up Jerry should have no issues opening up the pocket book. Covid or no Covid.

Maybe you can give Colome a QO, but I think he'll get a big contract from another team given just how good he was this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy ended the year with an OPS below .790. Big deal Because the team showed they can hit LHP and really need better at bats against RHP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLessRob Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Bauer and trade for a RF, keep García and Colomé. Unfortunately lose McCann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his peripherals and hit data were much better this year. His exit velos and hard hit % improved dramatically. He doesn't strike out a bunch of guys, but he does induce weak contact.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Totally forgot Ozuna only signed a 1 year deal. I would say you really need to get one of Springer or Ozuna. Then go after a veteran SP (trade options probably), and a reliable RP like Hendricks or re-sign Colome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 We could have had Ozuna on a fair deal this past off-season, but now he's probably gonna command a big contract after the year he just had. But it all depends on how COVID affects the free agent market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalChiSox Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Quintana and Pederson. Cheap one year deals for both since both coming off bad years/injuries. Gives us payroll "flexibility" for the future. They will say we don't need anymore starting pitching than Q because of Kopech and expected improvement from Cease and Dunning.

Capn12 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Don't pay Colome what some other club is going to. Someone will pay him. Transition a home grown into the role (depending on injury status). Make Bauer tell you no, priority 1, 2 and 3. NO to Castellanos. Gracious...no no no. Peterson will be here I"m guessing. Try to bring McCann back, but guessing he gets an offer to be more of a role, somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably for the best, if we're being honest. The cracks show, when he has to take on a bigger role, and the cost associated for him, to be 'second catcher' isn't worth it. There are guys like Vaughn (and to a much lesser extent, Collins), that can DH/1st/etc in the rotation. Personally, I don't think Collins will ever do anything at this level. I think he will be out of the organization within 2 or 3 years, but we will see. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
