I retrospect waiting until the last week for this may have been a bad decision

I would say counting on Dallas Keuchel/Vince Velasquez/Reynaldo Lopez as your "depth" is the worse mistake, but we're splitting hairs at this point.

Caulfield must be so happy right now.

AJ Preller was smart enough to course correct after watching Arrieta and Velasquez get lit up last August and September.

That's it.  You can never have too much starting pitching.

And now they have the leverage to dump Hosmer when/if they need to, and still don't touch their Top 5-6 prospects.

I am thinking Oakland thinks less of White Sox prospects than even the people who rank them near the bottom. Bassitt or this one withe the prospect capital going back is a no brainer. 

So it's either that or the Sox are tapped out budget wise.

I was told last week the Sox system is very underrated because of all the "really young guys" the Sox have in the system ?

This is a good observation. It seems the Sox could have gotten something done easily in this so maybe it is about the money. I am deeply concerned about the rotation.

Maybe a good sign on the Lynn issue

It bothered him last season, he did some rehab and rest an entire offseaon, and it's already back. If it isn't anything that requires surgery, there is no reason to think this isn't going to be an issue all seaon.
