hi8is Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Injuries to pitchers happen… often. I don’t doubt it if a contender gets the axe and we get a haul. I’m commending Getz so far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they aren’t interested…you move to another guy. Maybe they send money with him, it seems unlikely but not impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I think if Elias were seriously pursuing a starting pitcher he would have acquired one before Jan 27. Seems he's just waiting for the cheapest option. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems he's just waiting for the cheapest option. I think he really wants Cease but he like many other GMs were expecting Getz, as a first time GM, to give in by now. I think eventually a deal gets done with Baltimore, they’ve made the most sense for a year now. Edited January 27 by Rey21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 4 minutes ago, Rey21 said: I think he really wants Cease but was also expecting Getz, as a first time GM, to give in by now I think you’re probably right. I personally think this comes to down to Getz asking for my man Mayo and Elias not wanting to give up any of their big three prospects (with Holliday a very clear untouchable). The question is whether Getz will come off his ask and whether there is a middle ground that works for both sides. If not, I think this comes down to the Yankees or we ultimately hold Dylan until the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would do nothing to alter the trajectory of the franchise. If that threat of taking him into regular season isn’r real…Getz will lose this trade big time as he backs himself into a corner.

WhiteSox2023 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) 2 hours ago, baseball_gal_aly said: I’ve been saying this for awhile. The risk is definitely too high. Also, When the GM is literally saying they are still looking for OF help (probably Whit) and to trade Cease, I think that says it all.

Bruce actually had one of his first coherent and sensical tweets above in a long time, talking about the risk of not trading Cease before opening day.

His value won’t decline much UNLESS there’s an injury. It’s actually one of the most sensical things Levine has said in awhile. If Cease suffers a bad injury, his value could drop to zero. It would definitely be playing with fire to hold Cease until the deadline. Yes, he could stay healthy, pitch well, and raise his value. But he could also pitch worse and/or get injured.
