It's the first inning and he just had a kid. Relax people.

Knee to knee contact when Lopez tried to pick off base runner at 2B. Probably will require a leg amputation with the way this season has gone.

Its Hedley

We know

Why does Moncada need Abreu around? Real Housewives of Atlanta They are young guys with massive talent; they'll pull it together soon enough or at least they should.

Are all your other reasons this stupid?

I work for the Philles' AAA affiliate. I've seen a lot of Jake Thompson. We don't want Jake Thompson.

alright dirty, now I see you. Less talking to your date and more focusing on Kopech's body language.

I just saw you show your phone to your "Friend" So yes we can see you, throw some SoxTalk gang signs

lol, lurk more. if anything it was the usual pointless lopez pickoff attempt.

You know it’s bad when I’m actually excited to get Delmonico back

Only in Blazing Saddles

I still can’t believe they gave Engel all this playing time in CF over Leury. Really fucking stupid IMO.

Lopez is easily my favorite player on the team, love this kid being out there despite having a kid.

If by winning organiztions you mean playing above.500 they aren't the only one. Kannapolis and Great Falls are playing well and Birmingham is approaching .500.

Well then your reality is artificial because you don't have a clue about this team's resources. You can pretend that you do on message boards, but you don't. A team with ZERO payroll obligations that's fretting about an extra year of arbitration down the road for its potential BEST player is not a team that is committed to spending down the road to win.

This is a ridiculous stance for a fan to take. You aren’t paying him his arbitration salaries. Ownership is paying him. Why should you care? All it does is deprive you of seeing a good player. Pros of artificially holding down deserving player until after Super 2 deadline: 1. Reinsdorf saves money on one less year of arbitration Cons: 1. Deserving player realizes cheap team is manipulating him and isn’t willing to sign extension with team before free agency. 2. Fans don’t get to see good player on field for 2 months. 3. Player loses at least two months of MLB experience, which could be useful in getting him acclimated to the big leagues, thus potentially slowing down time until contention. 4. Fans realize that a team with no salary obligations that is still cheap enough to hold a deserving player down to avoid an extra year of arbitration is probably not going to be willing to spend the necessary money to build a consistent winner, whether that means trades for highly paid players, contract extensions for deserving home grown players, or outside free agents. Other than that, I think the idea to hold him down in AAA for nearly another full season is brilliant.

Nice article on Zangari. Seems like a great kid. https://www.milb.com/milb/news/chicago-white-sox-prospect-corey-zangari-launches-three-homers/c-285735548

There's nothing left in the pen. We had an off day yesterday and there's a break coming up....we're throwing all we got. Hopefully after the break and moving forward is when we start to give guys like Viera and Hamilton a shot.

Do we even know that moving forward? Other then a half a season in the bigs is there anything to suggest he can continue to hit for that kind of power struggling to make contact?

I really don’t see how a hitting coach can prevent a player from swinging at pitches that aren’t strikes. Plate discipline has to fall on the player, not the hitting coach.

Delmonico k’ing his way out of the future...his star shone brightly, but only briefly.

WTF? World Cup rubbing off on MLB? Walk that shit off you freaking wuss.

Ozzie in the booth? Puke. This guy quit on the team he should be dead to them.

I think father time has caught up to the guy

I am struggling to see what these have to do with off of the field focus problems, or even what #2 is.

If thats the case then we are in agreement . I understood it fully and I stand by my support of the post.
