Another reason that there's some concern about the White Sox not spending a lot of money this offseason is that idea we HAVE to find a LH bat and that's at the exclusion of players like Tomas or Moncada who could "blow up the budget."

 

the white sox will spend, they will spend to make this team better. getting a lh bat,

while it would help, is not that much of an urgency compare to some other holes.

That's pretty much the same contract Abreu signed, and this guy has not established himself, in Cuba, as anywhere near the hitter that Jose was.

Big gamble, IMO.

 

as I mention in the other thread, only time will tell if this was a good deal. they, the

sox brass may have saw something or have that money earmark for something or

somebody else.

First significant gamble of the LaRussa Era out in the desert.

 

For a player who profiles almost like a DH war-wise, he'd better have a helluva bat (see Abreu/Victor Martinez).

 

with stewart there who is in charge Larussa or Stewart.

Ender Inciarte is a fantastic, relatively cheap, option for the Sox in as a corner OF.

 

Inciarte would be a fantastic defensive addition for us, but he doesn't provide a whole ton of offense. Not a bad offensive player, but below average. Wouldn't mind picking him up on the cheap, though.

I wasn't including him in the first wave with Cespedes, Puig, Viciedo, etc.

In other words, Cuban Ballplayers can be divided into 2 groups: Before Abreu and After Abreu.

 

And on the 3rd day, Jose will rise from the locker room and homer 4 times....

Sources: Tomas, #DBacks agree at 6 yrs, $68.5M, as first reported by @JesseSanchezMLB. Can opt out and become free agent after 4 years.

Tomas and #DBacks still finalizing language and signing bonus payment dates. But final terms were agreed upon last night.
