The MCCANN!!! deal is done. Turns out he had a fairly serious off the field issue last year that contributed to his down season. They think he’ll get back to his ‘17 form which would be fine. He’s just a place holder until Collins is ready. Still can’t figure out why they released Smith but this makes me feel a little better.

Agreed. Best case scenario Castillo plays good enough that some desperate team is dumb enough to trade for him. If not just release his ass.

I thought getting Castillo was the reason to sway Machado.

The one position the Sox were decent at last year they have made far worse going into 2019. I can't even wrap my brain around these moves and the people that like them. Its insanity and stupidity at its finest.

No, I thought when they were trying to trade for him last year, that was apart of it.

Castillo and Machado were super tight in Baltimore. I think Almora may be some kind of Machado cousin. I think he and Machado and Delmonico work out together in the off season.

Shortstop? check. Money? check. Friends and family? check. I don't know how you can possibly have a better recruitment. For chrissake, english will be the 2nd language in the dugout. What more could he want?

Agreed. In this city, one team's window is very close to be slammed shut, the other's is just about to open. If he is looking to sign a long term deal, the latter makes much more sense.

Both these guys grew up watching the 2005 White Sox. It's no shock they want to be part of the next wave.

Yup. They probably want to avenge that one silly loss to the Angels and run the table in the 2020/2021 post season.
