    how much use do we get out of this this year
  3. I mean, we understand it. Pedro is desperate for "veteran leaders" (who don't run to first) that he's familiar with from his time with the Royals and they're riding the coattails of Maldonado's reputation and ignoring the last 5 years of his career as a hitter and last two as a defender (2022 as average, 2023 as worst). It's very easy to understand. It's just fucking stupid.
  4. But I was told pitchers would be banging down the door to play on a team with DeJong, Lopez and Maldonado supporting them
  5. When people said "Eaton lite" they meant 2021 Eaton
  6. I know, Spring Training, but if Korey Lee keeps this up and Martin Maldonado continues being the worst major league hitter on the team, is Maldonado gonna be the recipient of the Jeff Keppinger award?

    Notable cool-head, never starts drama, wonderful for the clubhouse Brad Keller
  8. I honestly saw the lineup and asked myself "who the f*** is Jake Woodford?"
  9. This, Dominic Fletcher, and possibly not starting Crochet in Charlotte to stretch out just scream "we're gonna rush this rebuild."
  10. Tired: The Bears are acquiring all these weapons for Caleb Wired: Trading down from 1 to acquire even more weapons for Fields Inspired: Fields is going to become a gadget player. Hilarity ensues.
  11. No. We need to see if Arizona has any more slappy platoon bats.
  12. To add to what everyone else has said, he was the best looking pitcher in the Southside jerseys.
  13. Nick Madrigal doesn't count because he hit .300 with the Sox
  14. Y'all remember dreaming on this guy?
  15. Dear lord, now I finally realize I meant to put a note like Moncada. ReyLo was only a failure as a starter. Not a reliever. And for anyone acting like he was always destined for being a reliever, we were all dreaming of the Giolito-Kopech-Lopez-Cease-Dunning rotation once upon a time.
  16. Ok, how long does a player need to be in the Sox organization for them to coach them?
  17. And that's why the Sox are flush with talent and churn out great players like the Dodgers, Astros and Rays!
  18. And yet, ReyLo spent 121 innings in Charlotte. And is very much a failed starter. Madrigal spent 1.5 years in the system and while he hit, his defense and durability began to get called into question - which were exactly what plagued him in the majors. As others mentioned, Eloy literally wrote an article about being ready to debut and was in the system for a year +. This is just absolving them of responsibility. Omar Narvaez and Marcus Semien were in the majors and became competent-to-good defenders after leaving the Sox after having iron gloves here.
  19. Yeah, while all of the guys I listed wore Sox minor league jerseys, they carried problems (or regressed) in White Sox jerseys.
  20. Let me brush off my We Didn't Start The Fire keyboard. I'm going year-by-year down, so this will seem like a strange order. Yoan Moncada - Below expectations, but an above average major leaguer when healthy Lucas Giolito - Good Michael Kopech - Failure Reynaldo Lopez - Failure. EDIT: As a starter Carson Fulmer - Failure Zack Collins - Failure Zack Burdi - Failure Luis Basabe - Failure Alec Hansen - Disastrous failure Dane Dunning - Good Spencer Adams - Failure Micker Adolfo - Failure Eloy Jimenez - Failure Luis Robert - Good Dylan Cease - Good Blake Rutherford - Failure Jake Burger - Good Ian Clarkin - Failure Luis Gonzalez - Failure Nick Madrigal - Failure Bryce Bush - Failure DJ Gladney - Failure Jonathan Stiever - Failure Matthew Thompson - Failure Andrew Dalquist - Failure Jimmy Lambert - Failure James Beard - Failure Benyamin Bailey - Failure James Beard - Failure Codi Heuer - Good Jared Kelly - TBD, but so far, failure Yoelqui Cespedes - Failure Norge Vera - TBD, but so far, failure Seby Zavala - Good for what he was Gavin Sheets - For what he is, good Andrew Vaughn - 50/50, not looking good Bryan Ramos - Looking positive Lenyn Sosa - I like him, but others don't Oscar Colas - Pedro hates him Carlos Perez - Failure at this point due to defense Jose Rodriguez - TBD, but if he were further along he'd be knocking on the 2B door Colson Montgomery - May be the crown jewel Wes Kath - Failure Romy Gonzalez - Good Sean Burke - TBD, not looking good At this point, it's not worth highlighting anymore because they're all TBDs. Obviously no one would have a 100% hit rate, but unless the prospect had otherwordly talent (Robert, Moncada, Cease, etc.) or drive (Burger), Getz did damn near nothing with them.
