  1. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/miami-marlins-top-29-prospects-2023/
  2. Eder is #62 on FG's top 100 https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2023-top-100-prospects/ link to his 10k game
  3. Hopefully, ship him to Houston as well for Luis Baez
  4. legit blown away that the sox actually get to take advantge of a seller's market. In years past sox would have to eat money and be happy to get the relief prospect alone. This year they get the #9 prospect in a stacked dodger system with #4 potential along with a really good looking relief arm and a warm body, all the while not having to ship any money.
  5. its one of many things to consider but yeah it leaves a fair amount to desire; having said that I think Hahn did very well addressing needs, getting a blue chip top 50 prospect that switch hits and is a catcher along with a LHP. I hate that the window is closed but this is a good first step even if I despise this FO and ownership. Burn it all down Cease, Burger, Anderson, Bummer, Kelly, Grandal, Graverman, Lynn. Possibly even Robert, lets go!
  6. Sox get a top 10 catching prospect and their 2B while they continue to develop Sosa., Yankees get a longer time window on a promising arm and interesting reserve bat to back up Rizzo and Donaldson while clearning 2B for DJ LeMahieu.
  7. There coverage has been s%*# since Kiley left again. Always contrarian.
  8. Sox have the prospects for this move surprsingly and should make it if hes available.
  9. White Sox Get Reynolds Pirates Get Montgomery, Crochet, and Ramos or Rodriguez
  10. Remove TLR, Shake up the organization if JR won't sell and re-tool like the '06 red sox and look toward '24. QO Abreu Trade Anderson, Hendriks, Giolito, and Moncada pre-season. Move what you can of the relief core and sink or swim players mid-season. Wait on Colson Montgomery and Colas and the next wave of Ramos and J-rod as well. I think that moving through the above brings back some solid talent. I could see the Angels going for one last Hurrah before they dismantle and sell bringing in Anderson and trading O'Hoppe Post trade deadline 2023 line up DH - Jimenez (our very own Jose Guillen, love the talent can't stay healthy and should not be in the OF, until he shows he is healthy he won't be moved) C - Grandal# (with his injury isues he isn't getting moved this off-season, but if he is healthy and hot he could get moved by the ASB) 1B - Vaughn (lock him up long term and leave him be at 1B) 2B - Mendick (hopefully he can continue to break out he showed before getting hurt) SS - Sosa (potential move to 2B if danny is more of a bench player, or he is a place holder for Colson, or Colson moves to 3B, if Lenyn delivers on his potential). 3B - Burger (given the opportunity to show what he can do while the franchise waits on Colson and Ramos) LF - Sheets* (half as bad as Vaughn in the outfield, maybe some of his second half breakout is real .342/.350/.553; the BABIP is unstainable but his low BB% should revert) CF - Robert (if he stays healthy hes MVP caliber, if our hall of fame baseball guy wouldn't send up to the dish with the ability to swing with one arm, he'd be in a better position) RF - Colas* (if this organization actually believed in itself he would already be up here as a shot in the arm but with our odds falling to 13% they'd rather save the opition).
  11. Sox pull off a large under the radar move: Crochet, Ramos and Sosa to the D-backs for Marte and Mantiply.
  12. Agreed I think the sox system is somewhere between 20-23, and there is some real upside with the middle infielders.
