ChiSox59 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Cliff Corcoran of SI just called what the Sox did with their catching situation "the worst move if he offseason" on MLBN. True story. Went on to talk about Flowers being a league average catcher with elite pitch framing, Avila shouldn't be catching anymore and Navarro is terrible defensively. ODowd responds...you're really digging deep with that one . Edited February 19, 2016 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/700716379721195520 Latos video. Number 38. Probably good he's next to the lost and found locker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shysocks Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Colleen Kane @ChiTribKane 14m14 minutes ago Mat Latos said catcher Dioner Navarro was one of the draws to signing with the White Sox. Good relationship from time with the Reds. Take it for what it's worth, but even as a believer in framing I feel like this disqualifies the Sox catcher shuffle from being the worst move of the offseason.

Only pitched to him for 7 starts(47 innings) but he sure was really bleepin good in those starts. Held opponents to a .549 OPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whisox05 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 When done, Gallardo/O's deal gives #WhiteSox the 27th pick in draft. Also adds about $30K to their signing bonus pool based on '15 figures. https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/701196610664079361 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
