He absolutely will not step foot in LF at any point so this is a platoon DH unless we're about to learn Santander has an injury or something

So they essentially split Austin Hays' RH bat and solid fielding into two players in exchange for getting a reliever

Bad year, always hurt, can’t field. Hope it’s cheap.

Exit velo still strong. But yeah, platoon DH on a team with multiple DHs.

As long as we are giving up virtually nothing I like this move.

So we're aware the White Sox exist but still traded for Rogers instead of Fedde.
I'm fine with Jimenez on the bench. Assuming this is a fringe top-30 guy at most that goes to Chicago but after earlier I'm waiting to confirm.

Low profile is good. I’m hoping for someone Bob hasn’t heard of.

Still a 730 OPS v LHP despite the awful season. He's actually not a lefty masher, better vs RHP historically, but has forgotten how to hit righties this year.

Yeah I went to his career splits right away. Was disappointed to see he was a reverse splits guy. Not that he's been bad vs lefties but was hoping he mashed lefties

Irvin is my guess.
Jimenez and Rogers replace Norby and Irvin. Suarez to pen as long man.

Flaherty to Dodgers. Interested to see the haul. I'd rather have rented him than have gotten 2 1/3 years of Rogers.
Kiermaier also to Dodgers. Probably for literally nothing.
