OmarComing25 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I'm all ready to be pissed when Samardzija has an ERA around 3 with his new team next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yankees will just lose that pick at 22 and it vanishes. The Sox will get a comp pick at the end of the first round.

ChiSoxFanMike Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Thank god. I don't want that mediocre pitcher anywhere close to a Sox uniform next year. Good riddance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Seems like an awful fit given the power lefties hit for off of him and the short porch in RF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Reporters must be hard up to fill their twitter quotas, if we have to read constant speculation. I am sure Smard will be targeted by a number of clubs and I bet the Sox talk to him too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 He and Rothschild are familiar with each other from their time on the Cubs, so it makes sense. It also shouldn't surprise anyone when he promptly bounces back next year, and his one magical season on the Sox will end up being an outlier year.

The Sox will get a comp pick at the end of the first round. I'd imagine that they'd be much more likely to target him if they were looking to make major FA acquisitions elsewhere as well such that he'd only cost them a 2nd rounder.

southsider2k5 Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 Related: Eric Fisher @EricFisherSBJ 1h1 hour ago The qualifying offer for MLB free agents this offseason will be $15.8 million, up from $15.3 million last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Must give credit to Iwritecode. He initially came up with 15.5M so I'd say he was pretty damn close. This is good since there's no chance Samardzija accepts the QO. Bye bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harfman77 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 9, 2015 -> 03:46 PM) Related: Eric Fisher @EricFisherSBJ 1h1 hour ago The qualifying offer for MLB free agents this offseason will be $15.8 million, up from $15.3 million last year Thats great news for the Sox. There were projections earlier in the summer that it would be north of $17M. It lowers the risk of Shark accepting at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) I remember reading over the summer where Shark to the Yankees at some point (or the Dodgers or Cardinals) was a possibility. Wouldn't surprise me in the least. Nor would it surprise me if he rebounded to have a good year as soon as he got out of town. Has happened going all the way back to David Wells. That's the "White Sox way." Mark Edited October 9, 2015 by Lip Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF the team is going to suck I'd rather it be due to youth than veterans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark had a lousy season with a few hints that he could pitch better. One year is good test. I would say let someone else overpay but keep Q maybe we could ge some offense to back him up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
