Said that the Sox are tapped out and won’t be getting Cruz. Said he expects him to return to Minnesota "Tapped out" after a LOWER payroll than last year after apparently making record profits and basically only making 1 relatively large monetary addition (which frankly wasn't actually a need) and spending money on Eaton and Lopez. This franchise is a joke. Edited January 28, 2021 by RagahRagah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 18 minutes ago, fathom said: Twins thought they had enough offense going into 2020 and some regression and injuries happened and bang, their offense struggled and they couldn’t score in the postseason. If they start the season with Leury in the lineup and Lopez as 5th starter, then they failed this offseason. 100% agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is an excellent allocation of resources. Sign another corner OF, sign a legitimate SP who is actually good now like as in this day and age, sign a quality bat (maybe same as corner OF) and that's a team that is still deep but also allows key prospects an open door. There's no excuse for the dorf having the kind of offseason he's had after pocketing so much money for so long, running out shit on the field. People will defend him (not so much here anymore thankfully, but certainly in the media) but he deserves total blame for this shit offseason. It's easy as pie to fill in the blanks for the 2021-22 Sox. All of the heavy lifting has been done. All they need to do is patch a few holes with short-term solutions, and they can't even do that. Fuck you reinsdorf. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only explanation for why they dish out that kind of money for top closers as opposed to a top starter or position player: pay for a star but not hand out a 9-figure deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 To say the Sox spent $54 million on Hendriks is ridiculous. Signing Cruz (or any DH) would affect the 2021 budget, to which $11 million is allocated for Hendriks. Nightengale sucks, feeding info from the Sox or not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
