Mazara is not good. Still young enough to figure it out.

Mazara is not bad either

He is major upgrade over what Sox had there before trade and we didn't give up alot to get him

Walker is 6th on White Sox prospect list.

For 2 years of Mazara, it seems fair.

I thought Mazara was 3 years away from FA?

I think White Sox lineup is good enough to compete even if it has two rookies in it (Both highly regarded rookies)

C Grandal
1B Abreu
2B Madrigal (R)
3B Moncada
SS Anderson
LF Jimenez
CF Robert (R)
RF Mazara
DH McCann/Collins

Although I would look to sign a DH/1B/OF type because I am not big on Collins and dont see McCann ever replicating his 1st half from last year

Biggest deal of the night

He has 4 years of service time. FA after the 2021 season.

Quite the unexpected Walker Texas Ranger reboot.

Mazara is not bad either

Considering the hype around him when he first came up, he's been a huge disappointment.

He's a corner outfielder that doesn't hit for that much power (relatively speaking), he doesn't walk, he doesn't hit for average, his defense is below average and he doesn't run well. That's a bad player.

Yup.

He's not bad when he plays Oakland, so I'm glad he's gone.

Awful. Typical cheap ass Sox move.

Bad is a bit much. He's a slightly below average every day player. 96, 90, 93, 93 ops+, he's probably got some untapped potential he may or may not reach, too.

And ironically, his 505 ft monster dong was against the Sox
