OT: Other Sports 74

[BK]

TA was a better player than Baez last year. Longterm? I still think I want Baez.

So Eaton moving to RF?

Engel as #4 OF

[IU Hawks fan]

They cheaped out. What else is new?

Not sure why some Sox fans are upset

Eaton is good defensive OF and should be improvement over what we have gotten production wise from RF in recent years

If he doesn't work out its only a one year deal ,, If he has good year we can exercise option for 2nd year

 

[HeisenBaez]

Eaton was not good last year but the previous 6 seasons he was either league average or slightly above league average. Lynn and Eaton, imo, are a good start for the offseason for the Sox.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Now sign Quintana and next offseason trade for sale after a healthy year.

 

[clydesdale line]

I'm throwing away Eaton's 2019 co-vid shortened season. He has more than enough of a track record to indicate that was an outlier. His defense isn't what it once was but I think he'll still be solid enough there. What I will question is bringing in an injury prone player with well documented clubhouse issues. I'm assuming they feel with LaRussa in charge that it won't be much of a problem hopefully.

Again? lol

 

[Mrfenn92]

Drake LaRouche is a team leader once again

[Pez68]

We shall see, I guess. He's not healthy very often anymore, and he's 32. It's possible last season was the start of his decline, and not just an outlier.

This has MEH all over it.

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

Not the most inspiring move but I Eaton is ok, assuming last year is an outlier, which I think is quite possible.

Eaton has be god awful defensively since he left Chicago.

 

[Teemu]

Ugh.. guy is just such a cancer.

Must have been disappointing for their dozens of listeners

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

I listened to the Eaton clip and it wasn't bad. He chuckled and said, ok guys I think that's enough. Jurko was laughing.



Not the best way to handle it, but think its a nothing burger.

Jose Abreau wins the AL hank Aaron award

Freddie Freeman wins NL hank Aaron award.

Sox make another solid depth move less than 24 hours after proactively going after a legit #1 starter/all-star starting pitcher. Just one year removed from going after Keuchel(a legit #2) and Grandal(the top catcher on the market)....as well as going across boarders to steal Luis Robert(budding superstar) and before him Jose Abreu(current league MVP)... and countless trades that have resulted in one of the leagues deepest and most talented prospect pools...

...and lo and behold the fan base is still complaining that not enough is being done. LOL!!! Unreal.

 

[Mrfenn92]

White Sox have sights set on former A’s closer Liam Hendriks. Per bob Nightengale
Sox still interested in Michael Brantley per jayson stark. Per Nightengale though they aren’t.

Still expected to go after another starter.

[No Fun Shogun]

Get wrecked, Duke.

I don't see an issue with how he handled it, they knew exactly what they were asking and the road they were going down.
