  1. Comas might be something, he’s performed admirably for a conversion project. I’d like to know what his stuff looks like.
  2. Thanks for all you do. We’ll keep the torch lit.
  3. I’m rooting for him. Alumni from my college and new big 10 member U of O
  4. He also had Schultz in his next 30 list, so basically we have 4 guys in the top 80. It’s been a while since we’ve had that many, good to see. As far as Montgomery at #2 I’m shocked but at the same time very excited to see the analytics community with such a high opinion. We can all look at the basic numbers he puts up and see him doing very well at a young age but it’s great to know that the analytic numbers back up what we’re seeing as well.
  5. this comes to mind when thinking about their 6 wins
  6. I’m a Patton guy, not so much his British counterpart whose name escapes me.
  7. Montgomery plunked by Montgomery 2 times then Montgomery worked a BB against Montgomery. Montgomery got chased early, in Montgomery.
  8. As far as I’m concerned the only thing TA did wrong was drop his hands. You have to keep your hands up and protect your chin, might get embarrassed if you don’t. Any player who isn’t afraid to fight on the field should be required to take some boxing classes, team mandate.
  9. Can we agree that nastrini’s nickname needs to be nasty?? As in “Nasty Nick”, Just sayin
  10. I love the trades he made. We got some really interesting prospects for mostly guys who were not coming back next year. We have no shot of competing this year or next so let’s move on from those players. As far as the burger trade, he’s obviously the type of guy you root for and cost controlled for several years, but he is also a highly flawed player and we have a glut of 1b/DH types. Eder has top line starter potential and I don’t think you can say the same about JB so im Pleased with that move. the trades we didn’t make, who knows what we were offered so I can’t comment on that. The overall direction of the team??? I don’t think anyone actually knows what that is. Hahn has shown that he’s not the guy to build a roster or an organization for that matter, but looked at in a vacuum, I really think he did well to restock the minors with some exciting prospects while only giving up guys who would have been gone next year anyways. I can’t fault the work he did moving players I consider to be spare parts at this point in a lost season.
  11. What about Giolito? Left for dead before coming to the Sox
  12. Popeye is officially on a heater now. OPS up to 750, 12 HRs
  13. Nunez has a great BB to K ratio. It’s good to see that he has the patience to take a walk in a league notorious for wild pitching. That bodes well for his future plate discipline as he advances
