  1. Semi seriousness, .333 OBP on 21 PA isn’t enough to DFA the guy. What he needs is more PA!
  2. At the same time, you are right that the Wild Card is a more reasonable target.
  3. I’m still not sold on Chicago running away with things. Their offense can legitimately be good and still have plenty of room to regress. They lost series against Detroit and Philadelphia. They played four 1-run games against the Pirates.
  4. All things being equal, I’d rather have the scrappy unproven player that might surprise us than the 33 year old veteran who has proven himself to be mediocre or worse since 2022.
  5. He doesn’t seem good enough to give anyone trouble. I recall having him on the ropes in the first inning last year before he bounced back.
  6. If Civale publicly agrees that he isn’t a major league starter then he will have more difficult time selling his services as a reliable middle of the rotation or backend starter in the offseason.
  7. White Sox turn our former starters into guys with 2.00 ERAs (Smith and Houser)
  8. Gallardo was a highly regarded prospect.
  9. I agree. For as much as we sometimes gripe, Civale has more value than being simply discarded or DFA’d. A contending team could do worse than Civale as their # 5.
  10. If Civale agrees with Milwaukee that he is not presently a major league starter then Civale automatically loses millions in free agency in the off season.
  11. It will cost a team about $4.5 million to have Civale through season’s end. That is ten times more than the prorated league minimum salary. This could be a good opportunity for someone to get a somewhat reliable starter for little or no prospect cost. Or, someone pays ten times more than necessary for replacement level innings. 🤷‍♂️
  12. Civale has very little to lose and a lot to gain by immediately requesting a trade. The situation does loosley remind me of an SNL skit:
  13. The original triple digit fireballing starter. Neugebauer never pitched after age 23. Jacob Misiorowski, making his major league debut at age 23.
