southsider2k5 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 https://meadowparty.com/blog/2024/07/25/klawchat-7-25-24/ James 1:13 Hear a lot of chatter about the White Sox dealing Crochet… why not just sign him long term or keep him? Keith Law 1:13 He's already blown out once and had a shoulder issue in college. This is the most he's ever pitched in a calendar year at least going back to HS.

southsider2k5 Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 John S 1:13 What's a hypothetical package you're putting together for a SP if you're the Orioles? I'd love to include a current player on the roster (a la Mountcastle/Urias/Injured Mateo) but figure Seattle is the only team that would be interested. Keith Law 1:14 Mountcastle + Norby + Basallo + 4th guy from lower in the system (Estrada?) should get you anyone on the market, no? Again, not my beat and I know I'm out of my lane here.

southsider2k5 Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 JeffG 1:30 Have you ever seen so many popup guys in a midseason list? Is it mostly promotions/draft class or is player dev driving it? Keith Law 1:30 Oh I love it. Makes the job fun. All of the above - lot of graduations, a lot of guys falling (Colson, Lesko, Termarr), middling draft class that didn't place a ton of guys on the list, and some real development wins.

southsider2k5 Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 Brent 1:50 How far down has Colson Montgomery slid? Keith Law 1:50 He hasn't been the same player since the back injury, on offense or defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 Ethan 1:52 Given the uncertainty around Marte and impending free agency of bader, what do you think the cost would be for the nets to acquire Luis Robert Jr. If they attach benintendi’s contract would that lower the acquisition cost? Keith Law 1:52 I don't think the White Sox are that concerned with saving money - they need to add talent any which way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 The idea that the Sox would take less for Robert to get Benintendi off the books is pretty unfounded and absurd. Their cheapness is more about investment than payroll. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if the 10 game losing streak wasn't enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
