Padres have started the final 20 at 0-2, thus 88 losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Marlins-Pirates got rained out today. It’s rescheduled for Oct. 1, but they’ll probably cancel it once the Pirates are eliminated. Half game could screw the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked this 4 weeks ago....seems a good time to ask again...5th or 6th instead of 3rd, and the Cubs fall to wildcard status. Do you take it?

I’m asking would you want the White Sox to sweep the Cubs the final home weekend even if it meant falling from 3rd to 5th or 6th, and in the process prevent the Cubs from winning the division, but host the wildcard game?

No. The higher draft pick is worth more to us than the Cubs status. The only way I want to see the Sox streak is it it means hot streaks from Yoan, Anderson and guys in this ilk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Hurtin Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 For those that follow this stuff, what type of player could they conceivably get with a top 5 pick? What I mean, is how deep does it go for "can't-miss" guys, and which positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reframe that, Our 3rd pick becomes a Cubs murderer, sporting a 1.200 OPS against them for 10 years. Thats what im hoping for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is super early, but the earliest leaders at the top are a couple of college catchers, the kids from Oregon State and Baylor, along with Bobby Witt Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 14 GB of the Orioles for #1 (LMAO) 6 GB of the Royals for #2 (Sox were 10 GB just 4 days ago, who knows) 2 GA of the Padres for the #3 pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell no. The Sox getting a potential impact player is infinitely more important than rooting against the Cubs. Especially in the 3 or 5 or 6 range. Often there's a few big guns at the top of a draft and then a fall-off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the peaks and valleys of the four teams from 3 to 6 might just have the Sox in a valley before a peak comes again. 62-100 would be nice. 64-98 would get iffy, I'm afraid.

Looks like the storm will be more south by the weekend (Braves hosting Nats). The Sox/Orioles might have some Friday scattered showers, but they'll get three games in this weekend. Just a terrible storm, by the way. The rainfall amounts will be incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam8610 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 If the Sox lose out, that means Baltimore gets 3 wins, and would just have to win 4 of their other 17 games to fall behind the White Sox for #1 overall. Yeah, it's not going to happen, but it's a nice thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
