Semantics at this point. I took your 100% disappointment comment as in he was completely a disappointment. I don't think anyone can argue that we were all disappointed he wasn't a Vlad Jr, Soto, Tatis Jr type immediately. However, I view his season much like I viewed Magglio's rookie year, you could tell there was a lot left on the table and big things were coming.

I think that's unfair. 775 OPS and 24 HR's in 2/3 of a season as a 22 year old is a nice start to me. The interesting part of his stats comes when you look at his day/night, later innings, men on base, type numbers. He hits better in primetime situations. Unfortunately most(all) of the Sox season hasn't been in contention. He also doesn't exactly have a stacked roster around him. Add another legit option in the lineup around him and start being in contention, and I think he will be the most impactful bat in the lineup.

Thank you for doing that. Worst part is that I'm probably still a mod there.

Why WAR is stupid for Closers, especially for Colome
Palehosefan replied to vilehoopster's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Couldn't we at least have started this thread with "WAR? What is it good for?" -
Unfortunately its the 2010 break for the Sox.

That's not what my Mom said last night... Wait, I don't think I did that right.

Luis Robert is that player you create on The Show and think "Haha, if only in real life... "

Have the White Sox ever started worse pitchers?
Palehosefan replied to vilehoopster's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The 1999 rotation will forever be the worst for me. Really bad veterans and even worse young pitchers like Pat Daneker trying to fill the rotation holes. Thankfully the bullpen was lights out. -
9 BB's to 7 K's in the DSL for a 17 year old? Very impressive.

I think that is the direction the draft will head similar to basketball. High school players will rule the draft, and it will take a college superstar to remain a top 10 pick. Development time in an advanced metrics MLB farm system will top most college programs for numerous reasons. College players are becoming financial fodder so that teams can truly draft the elite high school talent and sign them. https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/draft-system-has-pushed-teams-to-pick-more-college-players/

Not being a dick, but what leverage does a college junior have? You turn down multi-millions to come back and have zero leverage as a senior?

The good news is that it usually goes right through you.
