Capital G Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I can just picture the OF defense lol Unless we play him at DH and run out Sheets/Vaughn in the OF? (Still not ideal for OF D). Just throwing that out there as I dont see us signing him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While his bat would obviously be welcomed in the lineup (handedness be damned), we all know that improving the defense is important too, and Castellanos is not going to help out in that regard one bit.

Sarava Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Castelleanos would be one of the Sox better hitters. That said, barring some shakeup trades like unexpectedly moving Vaughn and Shields, they can't bring in another right handed OF/DH type that sucks at defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxForce2 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 You could probably hide him in left with acceptable results, but that would pretty much entail trading Eloy. Considering performance/cost efficiency over 4-5 years and still not addressing the RF problem - not all that appealing an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt that he can play Right, but S. Marte has never played the position. He's been Left-Center-DH his entire career. It still begs the question of what to do with Grandal, who I doubt will catch 100 games next year. The point being that if you're bringing in Castellanos you pretty much have to trade Eloy, unless you're willing to tolerate an outfield of Eloy-Robert-Castellanos. Not exactly a Pitcher's dream of an outfield. IMO, in something resembling reality, bringing in S. Marte would be the option over Castellanos. Eloy's jug-headedness in the field really complicates the Fantasy alignment of Sox player positioning.

ChiSox59 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Honestly, I wouldn’t be that surprised. He sure fits the bill of a guy the Sox have traditionally liked. But I hope they’re smarter than that - he’s an awful fit. That all said, if they signed him I’d certainly love the guy and get behind the team. But I know it’s not an optimal move by any stretch.

A-Train to 35th Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) PASS.........we need defense not another DH. Marte is the answer, but the Sox won't sign anyone longer than 2 years and Marte already turned down 3 for $30 Edited November 5, 2021 by A-Train to 35th sp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
