I get the feeling after loading up in the draft, the White Sox may go big game hunting and put potentially Bonemer/Carlson and more on the table in search for premium starting pitching. I would be reluctant to deal Bonemer, but he would be sought after.

When White Sox acquire a high end Starter, you could make a compelling argument they’re the 2nd best Team in the AL if Aaron Judge doesn’t get healthy. Ascending Club

The thing is, the trade deadline is more like a Church Bizarre....they'll be some trading back and forth but nothing too big usually....the off-season is more like the Alsip Swap-O-Rama
Paul Riker@paulriker
@MrDelicious13 I can’t remember who said it, but they said we will probably see trading between buyers. Take Seattle for example, they are in contention but are shopping Castillo. If they Red Sox rotation stays healthy, they could trade one of Gray/Sandoval.

@MrDelicious13 I want an SP, but I would be fine if they just added a couple veteran bullpen arms.

@paulriker I could see it....Brewers get in on shit like that too
English
Below are the teams that are more than 6 games out of the final wild card spot at the all-star break....now we are getting somewhere
Athletics
Royals
Angels
Reds
Giants
Mets
Rockies
That's the current sellers market imo....
BeefLoaf🥩@MrDelicious13
There are still only 4 teams that are more than 6 games out of the wild card as of today.... Rockies Giants Royals Angels If you go down to 5 games...you can add Mets Red Sox

@MrDelicious13 @HotDogLarry1 Loved the episode where Larry took the flowers from Funkhouser’s mom’s roadside memorial and gave them to Cheryl.

@thescorechicago @SpiegsAndHolmes @C1McKnight Definitely won’t make the roster until June sometime. *year tbd

On with @SpiegsAndHolmes, @C1McKnight praised how the White Sox handled the selection of Roch Cholowsky with the No. 1 pick -- and he doesn't believe the organization will rush him to the majors.

@Sean_W_Anderson @stevenpo1989 @CHGO_WhiteSox @fangraphs Burke, Martin, Kay, Fedde and Schultz probably have 400 career innings amongst the 5.

@Sean_W_Anderson @stevenpo1989 @CHGO_WhiteSox @fangraphs Regression and 162 game stamina is my concern.

White Sox's odds to win the division through the 1st half:
3/24: 0.6%
3/29: 0.3%
4/16: 0.1%
5/2: 1.6%
5/14: 5%
5/24: 3.6%
5/31: 12%
6/12: 19.6%
6/27: 28.6%
7/5: 26%
7/13: 24.1%
Recent "drop off" seems to be more from MIN & DET gaining rather than the Sox losing

SELL THE WHITE SOX@HashTagWhiteSox
Since June 1st (48 PA) LuisAngel Acuña has been playing some stellar defense he’s also batting. .413/.426/.522 wRC+ 169. The walk rate is extremely low (2.1%) but he seems to be hitting more. Add his speed to the equation and you’ve got some value there. #WhiteSox

@FutureSox @AdrianWhiteSox Can’t wait for Larson to get some action in Kannapolis.

@DrCrosby64 He also picked Chris Sale….not saying just saying.
English
The always arrogant Kenny “I can identify an All-Star in 50 seconds” Williams.
Kenny who made these top picks: Courtney Hawkins, Keenyn Walker, Royce Ring, Joe Borchard, Carson Fulmer, Zack Collins.
Who would KW have picked 1/1 this year?
JOE SOX@JOESOX3
Former Chicago White Sox general manager Ken Williams drafted his sons Kenny Williams Jr. and Kyle Williams. The team selected Kenny Williams Jr. twice (in the 2004 and 2008 drafts) and Kyle Williams in 2006 Let's hope Thomes Kid makes the Show and contributes #whitesox

Jordan Hicks heater update.
Last 7 outings:
8.0 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 1 BB, 15 K
🥵🥵🥵
Patrick Nolan@SoxMach_pnoles
I don’t want to alarm anybody but Jordan Hicks has been absolutely filthy lately. Last 6 outings: 7.0 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 1 BB, 12 K 🥵🥵🥵

@Ni_Conner @KenWo4LiFe Fedde, Schultz. The whole rotation is going to wear down. You could have a random 6 man rotation

@mhyland18 @BlueDog876 @ChachbagCapital @MickJunkin @MSuareo I am not saying I would pay that, I am saying that would be my ask. 2.5 years of control. On pace for 6 war. Sellers market. They have zero reason to trade him.
English
@BlueDog876 @ChachbagCapital @paulriker @MickJunkin @MSuareo It is laughable to think Reid Detmers is worth not one but two MLB top 30 prospects, both of whom are on the major league roster. GTFO with that level of stupidity.
English
Passan really thinks the Sox should go out and get Reid Detmers. Personally, I agree.
Does offering them a package that includes both Billy Carlson and Hagen Smith get something done? The Angels may not be willing to do a trade that doesn’t involve Bonemer. Don’t think the Sox will be willing to do that with how he’s performing in Double-A.
I’d be comfortable with an offer of Carlson, Smith, George Wolkow, and a lower level lottery ticket.
