I'm assuming that means they're both 18 years old. Who the f*** is going to believe that some 18 year old has sources deep in the White Sox organization? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 More than anything I just think we need a SS who is going to be strong defensively to set the tone on all the mistakes we see. Anderson does get to a lot, as Jose valentin prior, but I do think the sloppiness feeds off each other. In my patented 2023 plan, it included a follow-up to trade out TA and instead sign Swanson. Do I buy swanson's top? No. But I don't think "let's swap out TA for Bogaerts" passes anyones laugh test, but maybe swansons market is more strict than expected. And he is so, so solid, and comes from a winning franchise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Going into the offseason I did have four names to blow up the “feeling” of this team- La Russa, Abreu, Giolito, Anderson. Two are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 8 minutes ago, Quin said: Us? Divisive? Never. LOL It is crazy how divided we are. Plenty want to choose from the OF reject pile of FA's while everything is pointing towards that not happening. Very few trade pieces worth much of anything on the 40. The one guy who is still worth something, Hendriks, we have no clue if they would actually trade him. A lot of talk but there's a long off season ahead and we'll just end up hoping some how, some way that we never see Eloy in LF again, Moncada can find whatever it is he's missing, Robert can show he isn't still made of glass, Kopech can make major progress , Anderson can find the straight and narrow again, Giolito figures out what went wrong last year, Grandal can give us some positive WAR and Colas is a savage.

IF you prefer that and still criticize Hahn you sound just like him. Or... With a team that has a ton of injury problems and exactly one capable OF, there is nothing wrong with signing an OF because there are plenty of holes, plus high odds of needing more than a few OFs because of injuries. Or... What happens if you give Colas a chance and he has a Robin Ventura like start to his career and you have no other OF depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
