witesoxfan Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 2004. The biggest move the Sox made was trading Aaron Miles for Juan Uribe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) Since the Sox usually don't sign other teams' major free agents (Dunn was the first free agent from another team they signed for more than $20 million since Albert Belle) trades or minor free agent signings are their buzz. Most of their major trades seem to occur in season. Really, big offseason buzz is not very common with the White Sox.

GreatScott82 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 2013- Signed Keppinger, Re-signed Peavy, Took Floyds option. (No major trades). Yea it has been pretty dull. However, the pitching youth gives me hope. My biggest concerns are Flowers every day and the lack of left handed offensive production. I am pretty excited to see if Viciedo continues to improve with his bat and to see if Keppingers higher OBP can help balance the lineup out.

I was driving in the car with sports radio on when they made the announcement, I had to double check if it was April Fools Day. It was so out of nowhere, definitely a major WTF.

Cali Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Oh I LOST it for the Robin hiring. Haha... I'm glad now, and last year was great (cept that last part) but it still seems Robin isn't 100% committed haha, and i'll always kinda think that.
