PaleAleSox Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Made his MLB debut last year at 32 but put up .8 WAR which is probably better than any Sox reliever last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) 32 year old, left handed reliever. Quit baseball at the age of 26 and became a carpenter. Sat out for four seasons before finally coming back after figuring some life s%*# out and getting healthier. Made it the majors last year with Boston and was somewhat productive as a reliever for them. Appears to have five or six years of control remaining.

Timmy U Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Sox roster was at 40, so we will see a corresponding move. After watching Ely kinda hate filling up 40 man with marginal relievers from other teams rather than giving our marginal relievers a shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, just what this team needs. More old players like Tauchman and Slater. Edited 9 hours ago by WhiteSox2023 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this Booser guy has a lot of team control. Perhaps he’s just a late bloomer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a controllable, left handed reliever who can be flipped at the deadline if he’s any good. Bannister must really like him for us to be targeting him. Honestly, it just comes down to the price. Age doesn’t really matter all that much given this dude’s circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSox2023 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) Boston’s return is supposedly an unnamed minor league pitcher. Also, Robert Murray thinks he’s a funny guy… Edited 8 hours ago by WhiteSox2023 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Thought it was Carlos Boozer's son and a basketball player but alas. Maybe the plan is turning over bullpen 100% every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw he quit baseball entirely for a bit and then played in the independent leagues. Cool story. Hope he carves out a role here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he was the other bad lefty reliever that Getz traded a second round draft pick for and then dumped for cash two months later.

It can take like two adjustments and then all of a sudden they are effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but he wasn’t good at all recently either in the minors from 2022 to 2024 with both Texas and Boston after returning from the independent leagues. Sure looks fluky to me. It’s actually surprising Boston even called him up. Edited 8 hours ago by WhiteSox2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
