Shoulder

They are off today.

We aren’t overreacting to anything at FutureSox. Actually, we have guard rails in place to make sure that we don’t. Where’s your top 30 list?

Gonzalez does have two walks and a HBP

Harris is hurt. Not sure how bad. He’ll be primary catcher in Winston. Burrowes should be in Kanny when he’s ready as well

I don't think they'd pass on either pitcher and I'd be pretty surprised if they took Weatherholt or Bazzana from what I've heard.

I disagree with this. I’m hoping the Sox take one of them. Need home grown top of the rotation types that the owner will never pay for.

Yeah it's not good. Wolkow and the promisingn international class from last year will all start in the ACL on 5/4 though. They've spent so many high picks on pitchers and there's just a lack of talent in their international classes overall which is an issue. The players from the upcoming draft will likely make up the Kanny team in the second half. Wolkow isn't ready for full season ball. He just turned 18. Starting in the ACL is the right call. I don't think he's a prospect. He'll carve in the low minors though as a polished lefty.

I was told 4 innings or 65 pitches

You just can’t have more than 13 pitchers. You can carry 14 position players if you want to

It sounds like Brebbia is hurt. They’ll likely need a starter for Monday as well and I’m guessing it’ll be Brad Keller. DFA Leone to add Keller but the only options to replace Brebbia right now are Berroa and Horn.

Yep. That’s the plan.

True. They we’ve needed to add him to 26 man though. Nah he deserved it.

It’s Schultz tonight for Winston and Lucas Gordon in Kanny

First of all, no. Second of all, f*** you dude. Irrational is easy. This thread is a dumpster fire right now. Again though, you’d need the roster for one of those pitchers.

Right but if it wasn’t Clevinger, it would’ve been to add Keller or Grossman or someone else

And those guys don’t require 40-man spots

It’s the same organization but it’s different people in charge of it.

He was for sure. Last year was rough. He’s on the 40-man and the Sox chose Sosa and Shewmake over him. He wasn’t overhyped. He just regressed at the higher levels of the minors. Nothing and I’m quite sure they’ll also be discarded shortly. Which relievers in the org would you like to see in Chicago instead right now? Ok. I wouldn’t have signed Clevinger because it seems pointless. Don’t really think he’s relevant to Rodriguez discussion

Again, the league just told you what he’s worth.

What did he f*** up? He’s barely a top 30 prospect at multiple outlets. There was significant regression on his plate discipline. They didn’t lose him for nothing. They traded him for cash which is what MLB determined he was worth

Why would they go with 12 pitchers though? That doesn't make any sense either.

Right but then you'd need to replace him with a pitcher from the 40-man and those guys don't really exist right now. I feel like you aren't understanding. Unless you'd just add Horn and Berroa even though they might not be ready. Bryan Shaw's exist so that you don't have to use prospects prematurely.

Something had to give at some point though. They clearly chose Shewmake and Sosa over him. You can't roster all of these guys. Let's play this out. Clevinger signs and they DFA Leone. Totally fine with me. Roster is at 40 and they need another pitcher. Are you calling up Horn, Berroa or Speas because those are the options? The argument should probably be that Dejong gets cut and they could play Sosa/Shewmake in a lost season with Rodriguez at AAA. They clearly don't mind losing Rodriguez though.

Guys.....do you honestly believe that Jose Rodriguez wasn't shopped around the league prior to being DFA? 30 clubs just showed you his value. The Sox received cash considerations because that's very likely the best offer they received. There's not some pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that they missed out on here.
