Hopefully he won’t sign an extension, but I actually think he will.  Bellinger to Yankees is next.  Cubs are a real threat to get Roki according to a person with info.

I’m not sure anyone has great intel on Roki’s thoughts yet except him or his agent.

They do such an amazing job drafting, I don’t think losing Smith is a big deal.

Paredes is a 3+ win player with three years of control…if they lose Tucker to free agency that alone will hurt.  The prospects can probably be replaced to your point though.

Paredes was a horrible fit at Wrigley. I think they just wanted to trade Morel while he had value.

Im shocked they’re not getting more

I'd say a team's #1 draft pick from this past year and a 3B for the next 3 years for a rental is pretty good.

Edit: plus another prospect or SP they can plug into their rotation (with some control) right away

Edit 2: God damn, guy put a 4.7 WAR season only playing 78 games.

Dead pull homer hitter who led the world in wall scrappers. Wrigley deep in left. He'd have like 78% of his current career Homers if he played all his game in Wrigley if you trust statcast.

He's going to absolutely mash with those crawford boxes.

One White Sox angle - its darn smart that Getz got the Crochet deal done when he did, as Framber Valdez is clearly on the trade block from Houston now and, although he's more expensive in dollars, he has a postseason pedigree that Crochet doesn't have.
