Look at Ray Ray Run Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Maybe we can get some updated "top 5 payroll in November" updates after all these players sign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they won't even shop at a mid priced store, they're clearly not interested in winning championships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 1 minute ago, Sarava said: Isn't Scherzer supposed to be down to the 2 LA teams and the Mets, and the the LA teams wont give him a 3rd year? If this is about money/years, then he's probably going to be a Met. It still seems crazy to me that Cohen would push a $300M luxury tax payroll, but who the fucks knows at this point.

I think they’re going to trade for pitching after the lockout is over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarava Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I mean, if Scherzer is indeed out for the Sox - our options are getting very limited in all 3 positions that needed to be filled by impact players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your guy Harold told us the Sox were going to be in on Scherzer and spend like a big market team. Kind of running out of options to do any of those things. Sox going to end up with Danny Duff, Jonathan Villar, and Eddie Rosario. Edited November 29, 2021 by Look at Ray Ray Run 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with the #30 farm system, they will either have to trade off of the ML roster, or give 2x the number of prospects as they are currently at their low value. Maybe he can finesse Kimbrel into a starter, but I'm not holding my breath. Edited November 29, 2021 by GreenSox 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so if a team who was willing to spend got involved the Sox would be out and not act like a big market contending team. Got it... so same old White Sox?

fathom Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Just kind of funny everyone wants a major move and then given the Sox history, it’s likely that player underperforms and we all despise him. Conforto is definitely someone that many would easily hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team really just needed to balance out some weaknesses, which you can do with brute force like signing a Semien, but there are other ways out of this.

He’s not the three outcome hitter that Sox typically despises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
