At least I got to see the Sox win one in ‘05.
Honestly sort of excited for baseball this year. Murakami? First overall pick? Ishbia looming?

Traded LuBob to the Mets. Got back Ronald Acuna’s brother and a guy with a last name for a first name.
Biggest thing for Jerry is that he kicked in no cash, so the return was lower than it could’ve been. Typical.
Acuna is intriguing. He’s got tools and some pop, but he’s tiny. Came up an IF, but he’s been playing CF in winter league. Also hit four homers in a winter league game. With Robert’s injury history, we’ll see how this plays out. I guess at least there was some return for him as opposed to letting him walk in FA.

Acuna is probably an AAAA player. The other guy is a college pitcher from Harvard that got drafted in the 12th round.
Not a ton of risk here.

The tried and true low risk, low reward White Sox salary dump.

Me too. Speed and contact - not many guys like him in modern baseball.
They already spent it on Murakami.
