    Grand salami by Bogey. Equal to 4 Hans Solos.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Just think of the reaction here if Cordero or Dalbec had pulled a Miranda Act.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Does anyone remember who the 4th SOX player was who went to the Dodgers at that time?
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    "Ban all machines."
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Von Ryan's Express.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Yup, the Yankems have owned the Twinkies for a very long time.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Getting the Twins' feed and found out that the Twins have won their series against all AL East teams except the Yankems where they are 1-2 with 4 games left to play.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    After having shamed JD, he'll probably hit a couple dingers tonight. Or not.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    At this point I believe Dalbec is a better option than JD.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Well, the SOX did get 4 championships out of all that.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    No question the 7 year contracts were, too be kind, disappointing. Nice job with that chart, MOON.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Pham Dugo Bogey Devers JD Story Kike Dalbec Plawecki JD stays at DH, while SOX best hitter right now sits on bench. Oh, well. Two things of interest here: 1)does Devers get out of his long slump? and 2) can Wacha get his 10th win? Hoping both can happen. Go SOX!
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    True. And Dugo hasn't exactly been a 'bust' for the SOX. BA of .290 since he's been here.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    After the 2011 collapse A-gone told a reporter "God didn't have it in the cards." What a putz.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    It was still a nice thing for them to do.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Maybe not getting as much for Betts from the Dodgers was the SOX way of thanking them for taking Crawful and A-gone. And also Josh Beckett.
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Easy to understand why JH is getting gun-shy of large long-term contracts. Between Price and Sale; what a dumpster fire.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Thanks. Also,am I correct that this is the last year the SOX have to pay half of Price's salary?
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That's what it is until EO returns. Btw, MOON, regarding JBJ; right now he's getting an adjusted league minimum from Toronto. If he re-signs with the Jays next season, will he again receive the league minimum from the Jays(700,000) and the SOX pay the 12 mil?
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Correct. JBJ is playing for Toronto, but his 17.5 mil is still considered retained for this year. The same goes for Price's 16 mil. The Dodgers' active adj. payroll is 206 mil. The Yankems' active adj. payroll is 183 mil.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Right now the SOX active adj. payroll totals 117 mil.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    No. I checked on some other team's retained salaries: Dodgers--3 mil Mets------24 mil Yankems--11 mil Phils------29 mil Padres----28 mil White Sox--19 mil
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    For 2022 the SOX have a total retained salary of over 42 mil. Most of it is between JBJ and Price.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Good point. That will be your mission, MOON, if you choose to accept. That would be too much work for me.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The 2022 SOX are 6th in team payroll at 208 mil. However, if one removes Sale's adj. salary of 20 mil and Price's retained salary of 16 mil, that drops the SOX to 11th at 172 mil.
