They're really valuable. This team is competing, not rebuilding. To hell with worry about losing draft picks. Sign players to win now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a one year deal. Guys like Smyly were getting 11 last year on a lot less results the previous year. I don’t see an issue moving that. Can’t trade Rodon until June if he accepts the QO without his consent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarava Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 1 hour ago, Y2Jimmy0 said: Rodon was one of the best pitchers in baseball. Not enough innings but he was worth 5 fWAR. Are we just assuming that Kopech replicates that because I’m certainly not. Rodon was awesome. But the Sox need someone that will be awesome in October more so than May and June. Does anyone feel confident that will happen with him? And for Kopech, no...you have to look at him as a #4 and consider anything beyond that a bonus. I've been saying since the Sox were eliminated that they need to work on acquiring a TOR starter or starter with TOR potential soon, and if you need to dangle Andrew Vaughn towards that, then you consider that IMO.

Chicago White Sox Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Confirmed players being extended a QO: Nick Castellanos, Reds Michael Conforto, Mets Freddie Freeman, Braves Robbie Ray, Blue Jays Corey Seager, Dodgers Marcus Semien, Blue Jays Trevor Story, Rockies Noah Syndergaard, Mets Other players that could receive one: Carlos Correa, Astros (will 100% get one) Jon Gray, Rockies Clayton Kershaw, Dodgers Carlos Rodón, White Sox Eduardo Rodriguez, Red Sox Chris Taylor, Dodgers Justin Verlander, Tigers Less than three hours to go! The longer this drags, the less convinced they will QO Rodon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the idea is you can’t turn around and trade a guy who accepts the QO right away. The power shifts to player, at least until mid-season.

SonofaRoache Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Hahn already said at his presser that they want Rodon but will see how his market plays out. Doesn't sound like he will get the QO if that is indeed true, because I think he'd accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
