The White Sox hired Tony La Ru sa because they believe hes the right person to help Deion Sanders Jerseys them win a World Series. Soon, it should be noted. At 76, they pretty clearly didnt hire him to be the manager for the next decade.
The White Sox have a very good ballclub. The 2020 ChiSox won games at a 95-win clip, and that clip will get you into the postseason pretty much every year. They have a young core of All-Star and rising All-Star-type players, the type of players who can absolutely be surrounded with the type of support needed to win a World Series. Its easy to see Tim Anderson or Lucas Giolito hoisting the championship trophy.
MORE:
So, now that , whats next?
Lets start with the players who could be leaving. Alex Colom has been brilliant as the White Sox closer the past two years, converting 42 of 46 save chances, with a 2.27 ERA. Hes a free agent. So is James McCann, who shared catching duties with Yasmani Grandal this season and was outstanding at the plate, posting a .360 on-base percentage and 144 OPS+.
Those two will need to be brought back or replaced. And, although there are not any true superstars on the free-agent market this offseason, there are opportunities for upgrades. With all the financial uncertainty after a year of lost ballpark revenues, the free-agent market figures to evolve slowly. Which means a team like the White Sox, a club thats clearly all-in, can strike quickly by targeting free-agent fits. They have payroll space.
So what should they do? Here are ideas.
Sign Liam HendriksHes been one of the best closers in baseball the past two years, and if the Sox dont bring back Colome, theyll have to bring in at least one reliable late-inning veteran reliever. Hendriks is the best on the market, and they can probably get him for a couple of years, if the AAV is high enough. A two-year deal isnt a risky deal, even this year.
If not Hendricks, Leighton Vander Esch Jerseys there are several other relief options on the free-agent market with closing experience: Trevor Rosenthal, Blake Treinen, Shane Greene and Mark Melancon, to name a few.
Sign Yadier MolinaThis actually makes a lot of sense, even outside of the nostalgia factor of reuniting La Ru sa with Molina, one of his all-time favorite players and a key piece to his 2006 and 2011 World Series champion teams. The Cardinals mainstay proved in the shortened 2020 season that he has both enough competitive fire and ability to contribute for at least another year or two. His days of starting 120 games behind the plate might be gone, at 38 years old, but he certainly can split starting duties with Grandal, like McCann did in 2020.
And heres something to consider, too:Molinas said he wants to finish his career with the Cardinals, but it doesnt look like the Cardinals are super interested in competing in 2021. They just declined a $12.5 million option on Kolten Wong, a Gold Glove second baseman who will be high on many teams free-agent wish list this offseason.
Nobody expects Molina to get a repeat of his $20 million-per-year deal going forward, but its fair to wonder how much money the Cardinals are actually willing to pay Molina to come back. Its also fair to wonder whether the hyper-competitive Molina actually wants to come back after watching the team cut ties with Wong, who is still a productive player.
Replace Nomar Mazara in right fieldThe White Sox might be better with pretty much anybody else out there. Mazara is only entering his Age 26 season, but hes not a good defensive right fielder and his offense was non-existent in 2020. Yes, of course, we should be wary thesmall(ish) sample sizes of the 2020 season, but he hit just one home run in 149 plate appearances, to go with a .228 batting average and measly .584 OPS.
If the Sox really want to make Dallas Cowboys Pants a splash, they should give George Springer a multiyear deal. Imagine a White Sox outfield with Springer in right, Luis Robert in center and Eloy Jimenez in left for the next three or four years. But, again, if not Springer, then Leighton Vander Esch T Shirts just anybody else. Mazara is entering his third and final year of arbitration eligibility and, more than likely, hell be non-tendered.
Sign Adam WainwrightSorry, Cardinals fans. Wainright loves St. Louis as much as Molina does, but hes not going to come back for a farewell tour on a non-competitive team. And Wainwright was outstanding in the 2020 season, posting a 3.15 ERA in 10 starts for the Cardinals. He still has the fire and ability to be a productive MLB hurler. And, you might ask, where does he fit in the White Sox rotation, which already has Giolito, Dallas Keuchel, Dane Dunning, Dylan Cease and returning after opting out of the 2020 campaign Michael Kopech?
Do you know what you call a general manager who feels he has enough starting pitching depth in the offseason? You call him delusional.
Heres another thing to consider: Selling La Ru sas managerial approach could make for a bumpy transition, with a young White Sox squad. Its one of the prime and legitimate criticisms of the hire. What better way to smooth out that adjustment than by bringing in two players who understand why La Ru sas approach has worked in the past and can relate better to the youngsters than La Ru sa himself can? And youre fooling yourself if you think those three La Ru sa, Molina and Wainwright havent at least thought about this.

Major League Baseball isn't going to lift formerMets pitcherJenrry Mejia's lifetime ban for PED use anytime soon and won't stand to be disrespected while doing so.

You cant pre sure someone and say well take away your livelihood if you dont give me the people I want. Frankly, he didnt even have that information. He couldnt even give them what they want and they were still ready to take away his livelihood.
In a statement Friday, MLB boldly denied Mejia and his lawyer'sallegations, calling them wild and unsupported.
"As we have said before, no representatives of Major League Baseball met or spoke with Jenrry Mejia regarding any of his drug violations," the statement read. "In fact, MLB coordinates all 40-man roster Roger Staubach Jerseys player interviews with the MLBPA and they are present at the interview as the player's union representative.
Sadly, the comments made by Mr. Mejia and his representatives today continue a pattern of athletes hiring aggre sive lawyers and making wild, unsupported allegations about the conduct of others in an effort to clear their names. Mr. Mejias record demonstrates that he was a repeated user of banned performance-enhancing substances. As such, per our collectively bargained rules, he has no place as an active player in the game today.
According to the rules of the collective bargaining agreement, Mejia must enter into arbitration with MLB, but the terms make it unlikely that the ban would be Dallas Cowboys Jackets reversed, either via arbitration or a judge in a court of law.
