Vote4Pedro Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 Just now, Squirmin' for Yermin said: Fine by me.. give Cease some good D (no homo) Doesn’t do much good if you can’t score some runs. Losing 3-1 or 4-2 every day with a bunch of guys who can’t hit will make for a long year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Sure. $3M feels a bit rich if he makes roster, but not my $. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 He'll battle it out with Brett Phillips to determine the 3rd, possibly 2nd best outfielder for the 2024 Chicago White Sox roster. I'm good with this, but please sign Duvall would be cromulent for OD RF plus covering all three OF positions. Kevin Pillar 2023 fWAR 0.1 (206 PA), Projected 2024 fWAR 0.0 (231 PA).

At least he can play defense. Not a high bar to clear, but he’s a farrrr better option than Gavin Sheets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonard Washington Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 They aren’t signing him for what he does on the field at this point. Im fine with it, they need guys who aren’t afraid to call guys out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point you have to sign someone to be apart of your core moving forward and all they are doing are signing veterans to 1 year deals who won’t be on the team in 2025 when you see some of the younger kids start to come up at the earliest? I just don’t get it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really sucks being a Sox fan. I’d rather watch Colas get at bats starting on opening day than watch at bats be wasted on this old bum.

caulfield12 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Montgomery Ramos Colas...hey Mr. Getz, we're happier down here in the minors. At least our GM continues to test the "defense first" approach, which would have worked much much better at Old Comiskey. Hopefully it's worth it just to make Cease and Kopech look better. Still need hitters who can put the ball on the roof though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteSox2023 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 How many negative WAR players has Getz acquired this offseason? He must be looking to set the record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
