Madrigal may never become any kind of superstar, but there's virtually no doubt that he'll go on to have a productive career. Hahn got robbed in this trade and we're not even factoring in Cody Heuer as well.
We obviously have to wait and see how Rodon progresses in the next couple of weeks regarding whether or not he'll need surgery. If his arm is fine and all he needs is rest, I can see the Sox tendering a QO, but not a long term contract at all. The advantage of the QO is even tho it's not cheap - $18.4m for next year - it might be too tempting for Rodon to reject it. I just don't see any team offering him a huge package, which he might have otherwise received had he pitched the entire year without injuries. Just too much risk. But if he does bolt, at least we snag an extra draft pick out of the deal.
It could be yours for $150!!!
How dare you sir! I actually never sell. To be fair, he was on the Sox still when I sent the raw card to the grading service.
hgr? how does that card rate a 9.5 for centering? there's no border to tell. tops and sides look pretty damn good to me. if you ask me ... and you didn't ... grading isn't what it used to be. it's now about keep pops down to make their ten's more valuable. that and standards are wacked! you really want to depend a 'grader' didn't have a bad night the day before to tell you wat he thinks your card is worth?
HGA uses computer imaging and then human grading. They don’t issue many 10s based on what I’ve seen.

White Sox Ownership Can't Afford Any More Half Measures During Upcoming Offseason
The 2021 Chicago White Sox season ended in disappointment on Tuesday as the team was eliminated from the MLB playoffs by the Houston Astros. During the Astros’ 3-1 Divisional Series victory, many of Chicago’s flaws were exposed, as it is now apparent what the franchise will need to do in the...
If the Sox don't make any bold moves such as the ones stated in the article, then I'll be more than happy to give you 100% kudos. But for now I'm holding out strong hope that they will take some kind of action and dramatic at that.
lol I can see pieces like this harden his determination to stand pat or bring in a Keuchel-quality player
I tear up at the possibility of just how right you might end up being.
Smart move. Dude is not comfortable as a set up guy.
In hindsight yes this is correct, but I admit I liked the trade when it went down. I overestimated Hernandez, turns out he's pretty meh,
It would be tremendous if he took the QO...another short risk deal for the Sox, another prove it year for Rodon.
i SO hope you're wrong about rodon! he does not nearly deserve to be in the top 15 salary bracket. i don't care HOW good he can look at times. does track record mean anything to you? the guy is made of glass and i'd look elsewhere for much less money than 18+mil.
