And how much the Sox had to know about that as well. Either scenario is damning if they were ignorant, or if they weren’t ignorant. man I don't know, I don't think he was that undervalued. Before today, we knew he was on a pitch limit. He was -ok- in San Diego and was coming off a major injury. I really have a hard time believing this was known. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She also just cut off her feed line but maybe that is what triggered all of this. Not saying she isn't a wunnerful gal of course. Cueto is far more likely to be the gas can he was from 2017-2021, or injured, than recreating his 2022 magic and luck at age 37.There is a reason he was available for a minor league deal in 2022 - that is because he isn't very good anymore. Sox were right to try to improve on Cueto. Problem is, they picked the wrong guy apparently. Edited January 24, 2023 by ChiSox59 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it’s been mentioned on here for quite a while that “Kenny always gets his guy” when it’s a minority the Sox acquire. It’s obviously stupid, but just part of the Hahn excuse train. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird you didn't have issue with that choice of wording. Either he did it, or she is crazed. Those are literally the only two possibilities. Either way I don’t simply take the word of any random person I know nothing about. Still, I didn’t address any particular aspect of her story so I there is no way I could have poked any holes in it.

fathom Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Sampson from the Cubs is supposedly available. Would rather see him than Martin, and cost shouldn’t be too much. If they got out of Clev’s deal, a trade for Carrasco would make a lot of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob, I just said America loves drama, give it a rest already. To your point, it's still isn't known if Clevinger can overcome two TJ's and a bad knee to be the 5th starter. The signing was risky before this new came out. Edited January 24, 2023 by A-Train to 35th sp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Worth noting, found the rules. MLB is required under a confidentiality clause to not inform the teams until they are actually ready to take actions. They can inform the players club when they are: 1 Announcing discipline or filing of a grievance 2. Establishing a treatment plan 3. Required to notify by a court order MLB itself, if I'm reading this right, could not inform the White Sox of an open investigation unless they were ready to announce discipline. It could be possible for the White Sox to have found out something else if they ran a sufficient background check, but MLB couldn't have commented to them.
