bmags Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I don't want any lip about this, there's nothing to talk about right now. I mentioned a flyer on De Leon a while back. You may remember him, the Twins wanted more than him for that one second baseman I forget, and so the dodgers instead just traded him for that other second baseman I forget who was terrible. This was years back. Rays trade. Anyway he basically has been injured for four years. He got back to the Reds last year and pitched for a handful of innings, walking everyone. But there were some encouraging signs there in ye olde baseball savant website, as Cooper goes on to point out: Is he the solution to all lifes problems? no. But if I saw a "sox sign Jose De Leon to 1.5 Mill contract if he makes it out of ST will I be strangely pumped? You betcha, soxtalk. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagahRagah Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Jose De Leon? Before I read the actual topic that headline made me like... wat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 This is the exact kind of deal I would like to see when I say the Sox have some room for some MiLB signings with major league dollars attached and an invite to spring training. Keeps the roster slots, but allows you to bring a potential arm to the deal. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drafted him in Fantasy that year. Dodgers - very good at scouting. But kinda bad at 2b scouting on other orgs. TP I feel like if we were co-gms we'd end up with an offseason of Springer, Yates, McGee, Kikuchi and Jose De Leon, a very confused fan base. That'd be a fun team though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Maybe Tony will think it’s the older Jose DeLeon and be interested 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I have always liked De Leon. I too would support it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had high hopes after those 2015-2016 seasons, and even though he hasn't been good recently, it was still cool to see him have some success in the big leagues, though he clearly didn't help bmags' fantasy team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zisk Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Our Jose lost 19 games twice in a season. Once finishing 2-19 for the 85' Pirates. Had Quintana type luck most of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Hawk did, it was after he claimed Bonilla in the rule 5, from the Pirates. And DeLeon turned into the One Dog, so it wasn’t that terrible especially considering if he was still around maybe Frank Thomas or Robin Ventura aren’t drafted.
