So Brain Bannister will be gifted the prize by the Venezuelan VP? Also, you don't "submit" materials to Oslo, you have to be nominated. Btw, Devil's Advocate Ron is more fun and engaging..

Who are you looking at? MLB hasn't even put the 2026 draft prospects in the top 30s yet.

Bingo

Boston Smith and that LA SS 100% will make it before Mason Adams...it's pretty much the law of Sox prospect trades since 2010-12

Dude, I didn't write a listicle that I'm sending to Oslo for a Nobel Prize. It's a random list of mid-pitchers they worked with and have found success with. Some pitchers respond to a new system, others don't.

Do you think all assets of a deal are equal?

BamaDoc is a Soxtalk legend.

Because if they get a couple of key injuries at the same time, Joe Rock is probably a more workable option than a not-100%, under-performing Wikelman Gonzalez.

The Knights 83 throwbacks are also dope

https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/sheetga01.shtml -2.9 bWAR White Sox +1.0 Padres Andrew Vaughn +2.6 Brewers -1.1 White Sox

A 2ish fWAR is still a success overall for Martin, as he basically carried the rotation in the first half, just like Shane Smith last year. How are differentiating Hicks from Newcomb, then?

Yea, this really illustrates well how our offense has had a tendency to either struggle and put up 1 or 2… and then the next game they put up a 12 spot before going quiet again. Really hope they go on a 10+ game run and we see a consistent offense. It’s the perfect time for the bats to heat up.

Honestly, I wasn't going to stick around for the concert but I was excited to not have to fight traffic leaving the ballpark haha. I was more pissed about that than anything when the cancellation was announced 😂 I was like damn now I gotta deal with all these pissed off people in the parking lots.

At least it proves the players were coachable… considering how well some of them did after leaving ( and of course the results )… we know for sure they were full of s%*#.

Pitchers brought along by the coaching staff who are having consistent success. Did the staff develop Newcomb? Should Davis Martin be included as someone who is enjoying regular, consistent success right now?

So I went to this game but I bought the tickets off Stub Hub so I wasn't sure if I would get the complimentary tickets or not. I have yet to receive this email...

Holy smokes. THAT is a stat!

Oppor has developed the yips. That's sports psychology. I'd love to hear what exactly Bannister "did" to Hagen and Schultz that he needs to be "blamed" for. They're trying to make their deliveries repeatable and keep them healthy.

Every day is pitchfork day for you.

Actually think it may have been @chw42 👀

I hope when Ishbia or whoever builds the new ballpark that they have a dedicated area that tells the story of the franchise, and that it's done well and not half-assed.

The Sox had a little walk-in museum behind home plate for a while. I don't remember much more than they had a bunch of old uniforms in chronological order.

Exactly. He deserves some blame for the what has happened with Schultz and Hagen Smith. We've all read about how much they have tinkered with Schultz. Him and Hagen Smith look awful. Oppor has completely fallen apart. The org has become awful at developing pitching.

Hays was a FA, Gonzalez was 25% of the Crochet deal
