I wonder if he means like last year when Hahn got Harrison and Kelly and Pollock and Velasquez. Or at the deadline when apparently there was nothing to do. Hahn waiting for the right deal to present itself, and will act accordingly. No worries. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I am not disappointed the Sox didn't acquire Murphy as if we're going to be firing off our limited bullets, I'd prefer it before for something other than the catcher position. But that return is so questionable. Like how did the Brewers finagle their way into this thing. Very strange. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a jokey joke. Basically the Machado situation where the Sox poison pilled their own offer where the Sox pretended to be big fish and got some publicity and good will. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Sox are allegedly in on everything and everyone. But gosh darnit just fall short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trade seems like a reaction to all the spending by Mets and Phillies. I'm pretty sure the Braves wanted to trade Contreras to Oakland. But Oakland didn't want him and wanted Ruiz instead so they basically flipped him to Milwaukee with Payamps. I'm not sure what the A's see in Ruiz to make them trade a guy like Contreras for him.

White Sox Park Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Since I live here in Wisconsin, and the Brewers are my 2nd team, this is good news for me I guess . why do I feel like ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
