A good team not afraid of a long term commitment to pitchers would happily take him and lock him up for 5+ years at a market rate. The idea that he’s magically a non-tender candidate is so laughably bad that it doesn’t deserve any of the attention given in this thread. Expand I’d be more willing to listen to a flat earth argument than non-tender Giolito argument 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just struggle to see how they're going to cut payroll other than salary dumping guys or non-tendering them. Expand You can couple a Lynn, Grandal, Pollock or Kelly with Lucas and there would be 4-6 teams interested in taking on one or two of those four bad contracts. Do the same with Eloy, and you can get total payroll down the low $100Ms, even after bringing Abreu back for old times sake. Hahn will get another extension from Jerry for a job well done after pulling off those two deals. The bonus for fans will be it will piss Tony off to the point he may quit on his own accord, which would increase 2023 ticket sales despite lowered win loss expectations. Jerry loves Tony, but loves $100M more. Hell, LaRoche is and will always be Jerry's all time favorite White Sox or Bull for handing him $13M.

To say he’s magically washed is laughable. He’s had a really odd year. You wanna say someone is washed, look at Lynn and that knee of his. That at least could be an argument.

He has to drive that outside pitch to the opposite field but he's trying to pull everything so he either hits a pull side groundball or shanks one the other way. He's not at a stage in his career where he can hit like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no one on , he goes the other way which is more effective for him. His double play ball late in this game hurt. Our hitters do not adjust.
