WhiteSox2023 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) Here’s the source article and blurb… https://soxmachine.com/2024/07/pregame-notes-another-game-obligated-to-be-played-by-league-rules/ Quote I can at least assure they have other Fedde suitors than the Guardians and Twins. They’ve at least tried to wrest away former top-5 prospect Jordan Walker from the Cardinals in talks over Fedde, per multiple sources.

He's a really talented kid, but Sox don't seem to be the ones that could fix him. His numbers as a 21 year old were impressive but he's broken right now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a wide open stance that needs to be fixed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Walker has a huge groundball rate. Spray chart indicates a lot of hard grounders right at 3b. Sox are not the team to fix him. That said, there's no one else from the Cards I really want. Trade him to the Mets for Ryan Clifford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
