chw42 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I don't think he's bad or anything, but I feel like we should aim higher. He doesn't get lefties out well and he walks 4.2 per 9. I wonder just how much Detroit is asking for Chafin if we're asking around about Givens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Looks like Rodon is gone based upon the postgame reactions. The White Sox will add a bunch of bargain/second tier names but that's what got them in trouble this offseason. Plus the bargain prices didn't exactly turn out to be bargains. Only Cueto, Harrison and Graveman have been solid...with Cueto the only clear winning move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Givens would be fine, but it's frustrating seeing the Sox linked with players they could/should have just signed over the off-season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 I’ve always liked Givens and would be cool with acquiring if the price is reasonable. He’s an upgrade over Ruiz, Foster, & Lambert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 100 prospects don't get traded for rentals anymore, regardless of how good the player involved is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been better than pretty good since moving to the bullpen. An ERA and WHIP of near 1 since the move. Lopez has also been excellent since moving to the bullpen.

NCsoxfan Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Hahn would love to trade for Rodon. He’s the stock trader who sells at $40 and rebuys at $60. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaDoc Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 So we trade for Rodon and he gets hurt and doesn’t opt out……………….that’s how I feel our luck would be. I need about a 8-2 streak to get right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need about a 8-2 streak to get right I mean … yes this is probably how it goes but not sure it goes much different anyway. Cease / Rodon is a real 1-2 punch though.
