Tommy John surgery, here is a blurb from story
Horn joined Auburn in 2019 as a redshirt sophomore after a serious Tommy John surgery the season before.

Bury him in RF

Can someone post the full list? That twitter link cuts off.
I was able to right click on each column (1 at a time) and then I saw the list of 12 everyday players and next the 14 pitchers.

Talked about some in this other thread. July 2nd Latest from Futuresox & our James

Happy Felsch s/b CF, also part of scandal that cut his career short. He played CF, Jackson played RF.

Johnson for CF is a bit weak. Jungle Jim Rivera may be a better choice. Think we had a guy named Roush back around 1920s who was outstanding. Shoeless Joe maybe could have played CF.

I just don't see anything that Sheets really does well. Collins has the potential to do 2 things exceptionally well - walk and hit dongs.
You do that in college basketball and you get thrown out of the game.

Just read somewhere that Puig and Holt are the last two remaining top 50 free agents. I hope were in on them...particularly Holt. He would probably be handy and cheap. As I have mention before...Puig is interesting at a price and see if our Cuban clique can keep him in line. I know the arguments against Puig but just wondering if we could catch lightning in a bottle for cheap.
One would think the staff talked to Jose and some of the other Cubans on the team for their input on Puig. Maybe it was a resounding no.

Once Madrigal is up with the varsity he would likely start at 2B with Mendick the reserve. If Anderson got hurt for a bit I could see Madrigal slide over to SS or else Mendick if he can handle SS at this level.

He's not replacing a 0 win player though
Sano moves to 1B since Cron is gone. Errors for the SS and Donaldson and whoever plays 2B are going to rise a bit with Sano on the 1B bag.

One year Tyler Flowers tore the league up, average and power if I recall correctly

Question.
I know we will lose our 2nd round pick if we sign Wheeler or any of these other guys that get a QO. But do we lose pool money as well?
Thanks I'll hang up.
The post right before yours, last sentence, answers that as affirmative.

Birm promoted Tomscha up to Charlotte to replace Cordell (coming up for John Jay). Winston-Salem now owes a player to the Barons, Vaughn not playing tonight. Hmmmm

Vaughn 2-2, no one else with a hit. Same ole W-S.
-
Winston-Salem, Kannapolis and Great Falls have all been having trouble hitting the ball. Need some guys to take that next step up in 2020, just not a lot of good bats, or at least consistent bats.

Tough loss for DSL team, Navarro gets hit in the 9th, he has come through more often than not. Oh well.

The dude looks massive, probably even bigger than his listed size. He’s potentially a 1B/DH down the road (that said, even getting a bat first player at this point is a big win for the LatAm program)
Laureano didn’t graduate because it wasn’t justified, but it’s not out of the ordinary for kids at his age to adjust and improve and become legit prospects.
Until there is better scouting report, I’d go with the kid who could hit and play CF.
Yep, give me the CF kid Laureano too.

Years ago there was a light hitting IF in the Sox farm who hit only 14 Hrs in over 2,400 plate appearances. He went on to hit 20+ hrs each of the last 3 seasons.
Juan Uribe, likely not, did not have 2400 plate appearances before doing it

Durham?
Ray only hit 20+ twice. I wondered about Don Buford but he did not either, even with the Orioles.

I looked up "show minors" and he never was listed with the Sox, so idk what you're looking at.
Extended Spring training "minor league games" do not count. They get players who are repeating Rookie ball ready for Rookie ball after the draft. Feliz played in those games, but not legit games in any specific league.

IIRC, Tatis Jr. only played for the Sox DSL team.
No, he did not. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/t/tatisfe02.shtml

IIRC yes, but he got traded shortly before the draft and AZL doesn't start until mid June.
I do not believe extended spring team is same as the AZL team. Extended spring team is all the players that end up at Great Falls and AZL after the draft but not newly drafted players. Before that they play other teams in the same area with some of those players. They are the players that are in at least their 2nd year with the Sox (but not in Kanny or above), before we add a lot of draftees as you said in June.

He was called up to replace Varnell who was promoted to W-S. Frare was sent to W-S too and McClure went on the IL

Interesting. If accurate 6'2 185 lbs and 18yo. Wonder if next year you bring to AZL and/or see if he can start?
If he has the right makeup to be a closer type I do not mind him staying there. Guess you want him to work some innings though to work on all his pitches. Either way, but seems he deserves a shot.
