Yep, I'm sure TLR would prefer Paxton, Tanaka, Q,Richards, etc. The money just wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Our stars are already here. Wainwright is fine as a 5, and you can’t deny he’ll be great for the clubhouse. Same for Yadi if they can convince him to be a part timer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we see again and again the Sox have about $7 million left they want to spend. Wouldn’t sign Q for 8 but will sign Cruz for 15? Right.....my only hope is if it’s Wainwright for 5 we can also swing Tyler Flowers at backup C still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantee on that. Range of possibilities on both of those pitchers is wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainwright is much more likely to be DFA worthy in June than Quintana is. It's not even close. All over $3M, which is nothing to a baseball team.

Wisebri224 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Also Keuchel metrics were awful too but he just knows how to pitch. If Wainwright is our #4 that’s fine. If Cease and Kopech both get rolling that’s even better. I’m good with this signing IF it actually happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry, but I don't think either guy(especially Lynn) is as awesome of a get as everyone here. I think Lynn is more likely to be what he's always been (a 3-3.5 win guy) than what he was the last couple years. Hendriks is 32 and even though he's really good there's still the risk he becomes Kimbrel. This is the White Sox, where Murphy's law is the law of the land.

If they cost the same, I would have rather had other guys but for half of Richards, that’s not bad. The value aspect is only relevant if the other 10m is actually gonna be spent. 10m is not enough to pay for Cruz and with the SP filled Madrigal isnt gonna be traded so La Stella isn't gonna sign here. So where is the rest of the money going? /Spoiler: JRs pocket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I’m fine with Wainwright as the #4/#5 starter. Solidifies the rotation with experience, and he’s pitched well recently. It’s not exciting, but it’s help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
