That's why I've been whining the last year about giving Rodon away. It was like Hahn was working for another team and not the White Sox by not extending the QO to Rodon, not to mention after not doing that I wanted them to resign him. He screwed up in my book twice on Rodon and more than that by using money that should've been paid to Rodon on crap a guy like Kelly ! Damn he sucks. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep Click and Baker didn't get along and Crane is basically siding with Baker. Of course Click inherited a lot of stuff with the Astro's but he did manage not to screw it up. There was a point where Click had a trade worked out with the Cubs Willson Contreras for Jose Urquidy but Baker complained to Crane and Crane nixed the deal.

A $1 million gamble on a guy like that is well worth it. If he sucks, it's $1 million. Meanwhile, Kelly sucked and we paid him $8x that last year and we'll have to pay him another $8 million again this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind these would have to be non-40 man roster moves from the Sox side, and who fits into that bucket while still having some value.
