Two-Gun Pete Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 13 minutes ago, ChiSox59 said: The Crochet to minors ship has sailed. I think they'll work to stretch him out some towards the back half of the season. Make some spots starts. Work multiple innings. Call in the Kopech role from 2021, but hopefully they commit to it a bit better. Not convinced Crochet is going to be a SP, but I think you at least have to try. While I definitely would have had all of Vaughn, Kopech and Crochet in the minors to start last season, they didn't, and they are not going to change courses on that at this point. Yeah, it seems we're all in agreement: That it was obvious to everyone that those three should have been sent down last year, That it could be beneficial to send those three down this year, but It probably won't happen.

Marqhead Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Man this board is way more interesting when we’re talking about potential Sox moves instead of fucking labor disputes. I give the return of baseball kumbayah effect two weeks until everyone is at each other’s throats about how Hahn did/didn’t fuck up his off-season moves. thanks to everyone who’s been posting all the negotiation updates, has been very helpful to stay up to speed with a number of different sources. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 One thing I am unclear on in these in-between years. If you signed a QO-offered free agent under the last CBA, would you still lose a draft pick under this new one (knock on wood)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will probably take me weeks to remember what even happened before december.

Would have to imagine a guy like Conforto is still subject to the previous CBA with respect to draft pick forfeiture. But obviously there isn't complete clarity on that at this point.

hogan873 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 So, we were all glued to Twitter and SoxTalk yesterday (especially last night), and we'll be glued to both today. Then once the lockout is over, it's going to be a feeding frenzy for signings and trades, so we'll be glued to Twitter and SoxTalk again. If the lockout ends today, I'm not getting much work done the rest of the week. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A writer in an MLBTR article (I'll try to find it) seemed to indicate that anyone unsigned would fall under the new CBA rules but we shall see. I guess they could agree that it would be fair to start next offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all I ask from Rick in the next few weeks. Well that and an outfielder. I'll echo this and add some more specificity to this: this doesn't mean that Collins can be the starting catcher. Please God let us sign a legitimate backup catcher, and keep Yaz healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I think it gets done today or tomorrow. No way the owners make those concessions only to not get a deal done. The owners are still winning big here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freezing it at 220 for 3 straight years won't work. Maybe 220, 224, 230, 235, 240. Prearb pool also needs to go to at least 30m and min salaries will need to go to 700 from 675. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would hope those are minute details that could be hammered out fairly easily now that there has been actual movement on the recalcitrant side. Even the adjustments you listed above are wins for the owners IMO. Just not the union crushing wins they originally hoped for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think a free agent signing falls under the CBA when the signing occurs, not when the player becomes a free agent…. But I’m sure more specifics of those types of situations will be ironed out and will become known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
