Goins Called Up; Minaya Clears Waivers, Outrighted to AAA

The guy has been raking all season in AAA, fair to give him a little taste of the bigs as a reward.  Plus Goins is a great defensive SS, and Leury has not been good there and we can put him back in CF.  Goins will be gone when Timmy returns.

Yep. How exciting! 

Where is all the minor league depth in the Sox supposed top 5 farm system?

It’s almost shocking what has happened to every player on this list from 2017, starting with Fulmer...the value of every single one of them has regressed, other than Omar Narvaez.

Of course, it doesn’t include Luis Robert, the Q trade, the 17/18/19 drafts (we all know the Burger story), Gonzalez/Rutherford/Walker, but WOW and not exactly in a good way.

I’ve seen enough of him that I wouldn’t lose sleep if we never see him pitch in a Sox uniform again. 

I certainly wouldn't bat an eye either.  But certainly doesn't hurt to keep him in the org.

So of course it doesnt include their actual prospects but you wanted to be critical just for the sake of being critical. Makes sense.

Just took a look. 

Spencer Adams was #10! Jacob May and Michael Ynoa made the cut. Pretty sure both of those guys are already out of professional baseball and it looks like Adams will be joining them soon. 

I really hope JR is willing to throw down 300 to 400 million dollars in FA contracts over the next few offseasons. Relying solely on prospects is a recipe for disaster.

Yeah, most teams turn their #10 ranked prospect into MLB superstars. 

The hilarious thing about being critical of this is that 2 of these guys are all-star caliber players lol. The 3rd looked great before TJ and the 4th is still in the big leagues showing flashes at times but lacking consistency.

We should be thankful we had those three guys to trade or we’d currently be on a 10-15 year rebuild and selling off Luis Robert after he hit arbitration eligibility to the highest bidder.
