Wow thats crazy!

Nice get for the White Sox! This is much better than overpaying for a guy like Curtis Granderson in the offseason

 

[podsox]

now all they need is 2 outfielders, a 3rd baseman, a catcher, 2 starting pitchers, and a bullpen

And a shortstop who doesn't lead the world in errors.

Ramirez is a head case. He had a few gold glove caliber seasons and then seasons like this past 1 where he doesn't belong on the field

68 mil seems pretty steep.

Regarded for power potential? He's 26

Typically you would have developed the pop by then if it's there.

What happened to his power?

He won atleast two games for the Tigers this season. On routine plays no less. I've never seen anything quite like the 2013 White Sox defense. It was too bad cuz that pitching staff is high quality.
