At the end of the day, I would sign Kyle Lohse and not rely on either one of these pitchers, or for that matter, on Danks comeback being a sure thing. Too too many question marks.

 

The reason Kyle Lohse is unsigned is because he's not worth it. You sign him for one year, you lose your first round pick and then you get NOTHING. You sign him for 2 years, you get the same thing, other than an aging sinkerball pitcher at age 35. It's a cycle that continues.

 

The White Sox have plenty of starting pitching depth.

I'd do this too. Losing a first round pick in a very bad draft isn't enough to dissuade me, besides that could be offset somewhat by what they could get in return for trading Floyd.

 

No. The only guy who MIGHT be worth losing a pick is Bourn. And that's still a no.

I'm not sold on Lohse as an AL Central starter either, especially at 25 times the annual cost of Quintana or Santiago.

 

I think that Lohse would be HUGE mistake. He would get destroyed in the A.L. I'd much rather take my chances with keeping Gavin Floyd and the draft pick for less money.

Looking in our division, the best farm system in baseball can't even produce one starter. The Sox have done better than that.

 

You're absolutely right! I don't really care what these very biased national publications think of the White Sox farm system. They are wrong much more often than they're right. Professional scouts have a hard enough time judging talent let alone the overpaid "experts" at the publications. I don't follow other teams that close, but it seems to me that the Sox have gotten more actual production from their farm than most other major league teams.
