Timmy U Posted November 22 Share Posted November 22 8 minutes ago, Bob Sacamano said: Colas didn't get any shot with the MLB team in a year they lost 120+ games. I just don't think he's long for this roster. I would argue that there are a lot of guys I would dump first, including Shewmake, Amaya, Scholtens, Julks, and Chuckie Robinson. If they need 9 spots, including the 2 they already have open, Colas is definitely vulnerable. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed about 8 or 9 guys earlier this week, including all of those guys, and did not mention Oscar.

I just don't think he's long for this roster. I just don’t understand what they have against him. There must be something going on behind the scenes with him because I feel he is more talented and has more upside than either Fletcher or DeLoach.

He did compare himself to a slave when in the minor leagues 2 years ago and I believe threatened retirement Yermin style. And that was all publicly so yeah I'm sure it's no better behind the scenes.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 1 hour ago, caulfield12 said: So they're "teaching him a lesson" somehow, still? It's the only thing that makes sense...just barely. At least the way the Sox operate with grudges, such as the Giolito union rep theory. Or simply managers wanting to play "trusted" vets over younger players. I seem to remember reading something about Colas playing hurt last year. His back I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 I believe this went exactly as I predicted. All these other relievers can be DFA if they don’t make the team in spring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteSox2023 Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 3 hours ago, TaylorStSox said: It would be crazy for a team in what's essentially the first year of a rebuild to give up on a top 5 pick a few years into his career, especially with a new staff and hitting instructor coming in. He’ll more than likely put up another .725 to .750 OPS with poor defense and either be traded at the deadline or non-tendered after the season.

Getz acquired Fletcher and DeLoach and needs to prove he can acquire talent. That's it at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than Nicky Lopez. Still not sure why the Royals made this trade.

Whatever position player the Sox think they should draft, they should automatically take their second choice. Maybe that would work.

I assume the Reds acquired him because he throws so many sinkers, but he still strikes out a decent amount of guys. I think it’s an absolute steal for the Reds.

Sure, but that’s just because Hahn and Getz suck. India is much better than any 2B we have had in recent memory but he’s still no great shakes.
