And anytime someone can tell me who in that deep white sox farm system can be a replacement level CF'er it would be great.

 

You free up that money from Rios' contract, and you have a lot more options.

According to Kalapse's numbers (a man who is better at numbers than myself), Rios gets $12mil next year.

 

In comparison, Peavy gets 17mil, Dunn 14mil and Konerko 12mil

 

I cant imagine that the Sox will have 4 of the top 20 paid players, my guess is there are at least 30 players who are getting paid $13mil or more.

Sorry, I thought Rios had 14 million due last year

Can't. There's nobody. Still doesn't mean you don't shop him under the right circumstances. KW is going to have to get really creative or quit. He's put us in this mess.

Yeah one of the most talented teams in the AL is a "mess".

 

Where do you get this stuff?

 

The ML team is sufficient for now. But we've got some bad contracts and no organizational depth. A playoff appearance would go a long way in alleviating those issues. But think about that...It's never a good thing when you're future is that predicated on making the playoffs.
