Why is that hard to understand? So if he gets $15M over 3 years its a great move, but $20 over 3 the sky is falling? That is a difference $1.675M a year. Less than 1% of the Sox projected 2022 payroll. Absolute chump change for a big league team. All things being equal, I too would prefer 3/$15M over 3/$20M. But its negligible and the Sox aren't signing Leury to play RF or 2B everyday - two positions they are certain to still fill before Opening Day, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 12 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Leury has a career 76 wRC+ against RHP. Yes he was solid last year, but he’s got a ways to go to prove he’s anything but a token “switch hitter”. Fair. Romy also has a long way to go to prove he is even a major leaguer. So there's that. He's also still in the org. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have you forgotten when they folded like a cheap suit with Machado but were willing to spend money to bring in his friends? Point is, a franchise this cheap needs to conserve every dollar for maximum impact, especially when they've underestimated the market already. I'm waiting patiently for multiple left handed savages and no Leury ain't one of them. Neither is Segura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EloyJenkins Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 did this need to happen before the freeze? Seems like it could have been secondary to RF. I wonder what is up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulfly Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Have a feeling it's for way too much money. This is the most White Sox shit ever. Hahn saying to the Tigers, hey, I can sign big time players too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the trades and many signings prove that. But Leury can play SS and CF (and 2b, 3b, LF and RF). Shouldn't need any other utility players on this roster.

ShoeLessRob Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Just cause he CAN play the OF doesn’t mean he should. He looks like a fucking little leaguer chasing fly balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maloney.adam Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Leury was on fire at the end of the season. He deserves it even though some of you are against the signing. He’s versatile and a good utility player. This means Romy and Mendick will not be used if it‘s not necessary and if they need to use them than you know something isn’t going right.

If that playoff expansion happens, I'm bettin we'll see plenty of Romy and Mendick during the regular season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
