If the Sox are going to pay a pitcher $18million in 2020, I would prefer it to be a guy who is younger than 36 and who threw more than 42 innings post AS Break in 2019.

Crazy money?

It kind of is for a guy who spent a good chunk of 2019 hurt.

If the Sox are going to spend that sort of crazy money, I'd prefer it to be on MadBum.

He was also reasonable effective despite just 140 innings. If you go light on the years, there is usually a premium in the base salary for the player.

36 years old guys coming off injuries usually don't get multiple years

The market is the market. Oh wow that's alot of $$$ for player X is Sox fans Stockholm Syndrome for coping with a owner like Reinsdorf.

I already addressed this.

Wheeler or Bumgarner at $20-22 per year is a steal compared to Hamels at $18

There is a good chance they don't sign Wheeler or Bumgardner either.

You don't know that to be true anymore than anybody else here.

29 other teams and a penny pinching owner. Odds aren't great.

18 million on Hamels is ridiculous. I don't care what the market is

Not sure anyone suggested Cole Hamels as the #1 target.

I'd like to personally thank the Atlanta Braves from saving the White Sox from doing something really stupid. They can have a 1-year Cole Hamels for $18.

This puts Bumgarner at a minimum of 5 years / $120 million.

If the Sox have already offered a pitcher $120+ million, that is a very, very good sign going forward. Maybe they did learn a little lesson from last year.
