Sydin posted:Literally any team in baseball right now could go out and get a proven left handed closer who just put up a 1.37 FIP and is only 30 for a 1/10 commitment. All they have to do is claim him. That's it. No prospect capital, no negotiation, no nothing. Just go claim him and bam, your bullpen is insanely better at what should be below market cost. Man this is really bad. I will be absolutely livid if he goes unclaimed, both for selfish "He would make my team better" reasons and also the obvious larger issue.

chilihead posted:Braves paid Ozuna something around 18 million this year, the qualifying offer is around 18 million this year. If they don't re-sign him of course they will offer him the QO. Ozuna turned down a qualifying option last year so I think that makes him ineligible to receive one this year.

I believe the part that makes him ineligible to receive a qualifying offer is the fact that he has received one in his career in general. You can't receive more than one under this CBA. (but yea, he's ineligible, just like Grandal last year)

mastershakeman posted:holy lol at TLR being BACK I'm old as gently caress, but I went to the game previous to him being announced as a White Sox manager the first time in '79. Burying the lede to the story, but I think the Yankees also solved their Gary Sanchez problem. It was also Thurman Munson's last game.

whats the quote about facing TLR where it has like "suddenly you look up and a second baseman is pitching and you're down by 5 runs." Sorry I can't remember BECAUSE HE HASN'T COACHED IN ALMOST A DECADE

Cant believe a team actually hired TLR to manage in 2020. AJ Hinch was right there.

Because we live in the worst world, the sox will win in 2021 despite him and we'll have to hear about what a genius he is.

I hope Jerry Reinsdorf is soon able to work with his good friend George Steinbrenner in designing a perfect manager and lineup for heaven's team. Wait, take your poo poo rear end son and Kenny Williams too. I feel like I'm getting to mcmagic levels. Gonna step back for a bit.

Hopefully Amderson flips his bat so hard and so far that it flies into the Sox dugout and brains La Russa, leaving him incapable of fulfilling his duties as manager.

To think that A.J. Hinch wasn't the most controversial candidate to manage a baseball in the fall of 2020. The White Sox have a pretty cool team. It's a shame that TLR is going to promptly kill it.

Yes Dernald, I'm sure Kayleigh and her husband appreciate that. He was cut by the Rays two months prior to the WS, because he gave up two dongs in four innings, one of which hit the loving roof of some stadium, and has been unemployed since.
