Do not be surprised if White Sox revisit Sonny Gray discussions while discussing Tucker Barnhart (which @NOTCishek reported they were discussing). Teams are very familiar with each other from the first go around and with Snell & Darvish dealt, clearer picture of Gray deal emerges

Teams always do their due diligence multiple times as markets and prices change/fluctuate. Basically every free agent starter wants roughly $10M (thanks to Drew Smyly) with Odorizzi higher than that (Think Hendriks). Teams are thinking established starters w/ cost control....

....are better than signing a 1yr flier free agent

Sonny Gray, Joe Musgrove, German Marquez, Carlos Carrasco, Jon Gray, Chris Bassit, Sean Manaea, Dylan Bundy all available on the market as teams explore returns. Trade Market for Starters is a lot deeper than most think

Would not be shocked if White Sox also quietly re-engaged on Brewers starter Brandon Woodruff either like they did last summer. There’s lots of avenues to explore and a lot more upside on trade market

Marco Gonzales of the Mariners is another target. List goes on

Creative way to “cheapen” Gonzales? Attach Kyle Seager to trade. 1yr/$18M w/ $15M Option that becomes a Player Option when traded
