ChiSoxFanMike Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I would've liked to have seen him come to the Sox, especially on a 1 year deal. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. That $7 million (+5 in incentives) probably takes us out of the running for another position player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The Astros can have Fister and his 86mph fasball. No thank you to Fister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was his velocity so bad last year? Was he injured or something? If he has arm problems that I don't know about, then I'm happy that the Sox passed up on him.

LittleHurt05 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Brian McTaggart @brianmctaggart 7m7 minutes ago Astros rotation options: Keuchel (20-8, 2.48) McHugh (19-7, 3.89) McCullers (6-7, 3.22) Fister Fiers (7-10, 3.69) Feldman (5-5, 3.90) That's pretty solid I'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, maybe he's healthy now but imo, not worth the risk for a team like the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackmooncreeping Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Is his deal guaranteed? I would've extended a minor league deal w/a spring training invite to him, but that's about it. Too many unanswered questions regarding his velocity dip to give him a big league deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 So Latos gets at least $10-12 million, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 The Latos deal is even more of a steal once I remembered what Fister got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
