    And Workman finishes the season in another uniform...

    We’ll trade you the Marlins for them...

    Well, it also seemed that their only chance of extending him was if they first reset the tax penalties, which they could not do without trading Betts or other expensive and far less desirable contracts. So trading Betts was the smartest plan to reset, since no one was going to take Eovaldi, Sale or Price off their hands. (And they did try. I believe there were some Price/Wil Myers rumblings, which shows how far the Sox were willing to go.) But the Dodgers were the only team willing to take Betts (and most of Price) and give up anything of value. My only problem with this unfortunately necessary trade was it did look better when the Sox got Brusdar Graterol...

    But the city of Buffalo only likes teams with pun names. They have the Bills. They used to (still do?) have a minor league baseball team called the Bison. And at some point in the near future, you just know they’re going to change the Sabres to the Wings. (Seriously. How has this not already happened!?? It’s even a hockey term!!) Buffalo Blue Jays? It just doesn’t work. Maybe the city will force them to use the moniker “Chips” for one year. Which is ok as long as there is no costumed mascot...

    No but it focuses on the wrong aspect of it. What other teams were even interested?

    Former Sox relievers Andrew Cashner and Addison Reed are still unemployed, right?

    Cody Allen hasn’t been worth a flier since 2017. The Sox would be better off taking their chances dragging Fernando Rodney out of retirement...

    Well, the list of teams willing to take on a one year $25mill contract and give up something of value was probably not very long...

    That’s just “Passing a Physical, 2020 Edition”...

    It felt like they could just never get going...

    The problem with acquiring Covey is he only seems to pitch well against the Red Sox. Against everyone else he gets hammered like a sorority girl on Jell-O shot night. But at least we don’t have to face him now...

    Really? He'd be my top trade candidate...

    I think the nest 2 to 3 (or 2 to 2 1/2 if you like) seasons if Mookie will be among his best, which stands to make them all time great seasons. But he will decline everywhere but in salary...

    Not at all.

    Now watch Johnson have a Cy Young caliber season. Hey if a pitcher has half a dozen god starts, he might be in the running...

    Unrelated but humorous sponsorship. For White Sox games, every game has the announcement “And today’s umpire rotation is brought to you by the Spectrios Center for Low Vision.”

    It's mid-July. The "post-season" has not even started yet. Even during a regular pandemic-free season, the interminably long NBA post-season is wrapping up about now. Heck, the next regular season would normally start in about 14 weeks. Are we going to squeeze an entire post-season, off-season, and pre-season into that timeframe?

    Too much like a classic Who song. I am all in favor of naming the team after Cleveland's most famous unsolved serial killer - the Cleveland Torso Murderers...

    Defintely. Although bear in mind he was released by the Tigers...

    The Sox best starter is Eovaldi and the bullpen is lead by TBD. I don’t think Verdugo’s batting slot is a “make or break” decision for the 2020 season...

    If they are tanking, I’d rather have them do it for 60 games as opposed to 162. Much more watchable. Or less unwatchable...

    Great. Top pick after the colleges and high schools didn’t play. Good luck scouting that draft...
