GreenSox Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 Tanner Banks is going to be 37 when he hits free agency. He's never had a bad year in the pros: his worst whip for any year was 1.37, most of his career as a starter. Sox waited until he was 30 to call him up. And he'll never get any sort of payday. It's a shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame. His deal this year is for 755,000 dollars. I wouldn't call that never getting any sort of payday and this is his third year in the league so he made money the first two years. Is it mega-mega millions? No. But if he invests it wisely he and his family will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And really, there was no reason for the Sox to wait so long to call him up, especially with Hahnber's affectation with the bullpen. Most teams grow at least 1/2 of their pen from farmhands like him.

Well, he was a starting pitcher who struck out 6 per 9 IP. Not really sexy. Yes, they probably should have started converting him to the bullpen before his 5th season in the system. 41 minutes ago, southsider2k5 said: He's made in 3 years what a lot of people make in a life time.

2Deep Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 All the pity for Banks needs a reality check...... He wasn't very good in minors and didn't have the "stuff" Maybe we give the white Sox some credit for getting the most out of him and developing him to the best they could Anyway, I think someone will trade for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the horrible first weeks of the year, the White Sox had played the Guardians surprisingly close. We won one, and lost another in a walk-off. Again, I'm not even sure if you watch the games.

Falstaff Posted July 4, 2024 Share Posted July 4, 2024 It was a great game to watch. Maldy !?!, "you gotta be bleeping me". Fedde has to be getting major interest from numerous teams, including Cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's great for one year but a lot of athletes aren't walking away from a professional sport into high paying gigs. Tanner Banks isn't going to leave MLB and become a silicon valley executive.
