Still say Schwarber will go somewhere he gets 400 at bats. Too bad, he’d be a great weapon against RHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we sign Schwarber, but if we’re willing to push back Vaughn’s start date with us to 2022 (assuming everyone is both healthy & producing) I think he’d be highly interested in signing with us. And the cost would probably be like $7M on a one year deal. Edited December 18, 2020 by Chicago White Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, because how to use a computer is a much more sensible gauge of intelligence than actually using logic. This quote is so laughable.

Don’t know how to post tweets here outside of a phone screen shot but did you see Stone responded to a tweet from someone and said he thought they were still going to make a splash or two? His definition could be different than a fan to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulture Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I don’t get the concern over having too many good playerss. Grandal Collins Abreu Vaughn Madrigal Moncada Anderson Garcia Jimenez Robert Eaton Brantley Engel That’s thirteen guys you can roll with for two years. Dump Eaton after ‘21.

And so we’re paying Brantley $12M+ to be a rotation / backup piece in LF & DH. Who is our RF in this scenario?

bmags Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I just want to reiterate as we get used to the bore of FA waiting to the point we even remember what it's about: If we do get a Hendriks and he's of the quality of the last two years Going into a playoff series with Hendriks, Bummer and Crochet, 3 guys that can be multi-inning fireman, is sick as hell.

And let’s be honest, Kopech will likely be in the bullpen as well if we make the playoffs next year. And maybe it won’t be 2021, but I still believe Burdi has the chance to become an elite reliever in time. His stuff is beyond phenomenal, just needs to learn how to harness it. But imagine this pen come October: 9th: Hendriks 8th: Bummer* 8th: Kopech 7th: Crochet* 7th: Heuer 6th: Marshall 6th: Fry* 6th: Foster Plus you’d also potentially have Lopez, Burdi, Johnson, Lambert, Cordero, & possibly even Stiever in the mix as well. That’s potentially a best-in-class bullpen you’re looking at there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopech is too good to push into the 8th When Bummer/Crochet/Heuer are all nasty already. The management of Kopech is the most interesting component of 2021 imo.
