Yeah why would someone not trying to win take an old catcher who will be a free agent?


Who is the old catcher first of all. He is in his prime. As for who will trade for him. A contending team that needs a good catcher as in the Dodgers and the Pads for starters.

This guy Heuer looks like a closer.


That dude is nasty. Very brief minor league track record. It looks like they tried him out as a starter in 2018, but threw in the towel immediately. Then he was dominant out of the pen last year. I must admit that he wasn’t really on my radar. He’s got my full undivided attention now, though. I like what I’ve seen from Matt Foster as well.


The Sox are set up nicely to transition from Colome next year. He can return to his normal role of set up for a good team or sign somewhere else as a closer on a bad one. Either way, at least the Sox won't be held up for ransom for mediocrity

I can't think of many bigger double whammies as 1.) being sent down 2.) being sent to Schaumberg.

I think you are wrong. You may be honest but you are wrong on both counts. GMs will not look seriously at his Tiger years but only last year and current.

That's ridiculous. It's well established that they look at 3 year windows and any GM that ignores 5/6th of available data is being derelict in his duty.

He's always been a good defensive catcher and now he is in a top group of offensive catchers. Right now, teams would trade for McCann with plans to sign him for a 3-4 year deal.

I think you are overrating him based on one good year. Lots of catchers have had one good/great offensive season and gone right back to average. If he does it again, that's different. Maybe he will. No guarantee of that though.

Good backup catchers get moved because of injuries in most cases, that is definitely possible but it wont be some great haul and it wont be Stroman or anything better than him.

I went around and around wtih Hawk on this before. He completely overvalues McCann. He is nothing more than a good back up catcher who had a nice half a season last year. There is a clear reason they spent so much money on Grandal. They knew it was not going to last and they needed an upgrade.

Nah. The Cardinals aren't going anywhere in this silly season and McCann will only go to where he is the starter. Wouldn't be surprised if Hahn isn't talking trade with the Dodgers. Their catchers are for shit.

Will Smith is for shit?

He hit 15 homeruns in 170 AB's last year and had a .907 OPS and was the 4th ranked prospect in a loaded Dodgers system going into last year.

James McCann hit 18 Homeruns in 439 ABs with a .789 OPS

Well you were waiting for that for a couple innings.

Can't make Gio get extra outs.

A split with the Brewers after winning the 2 in Milwaukee is a disappointment.

That might be the worse defensive play in White Sox history.

Absolutely. Sox need to find a way to win this game.

I'm having a hard time thinking of another one off the top of my head.

I'm sure JORR or dolphin will think of one.

But that was awful.
