The fact that Robert has fallen off the table in production now does not mean that he wasn't "developed" at an earlier point. Marco Paddy was a scout; he didn't develop prospects. Apparently, he was also bad at communicating what it was his department saw in many prospects to give development any idea. Tatis is a story of the prospect we traded away. I don't think anybody seriously gives the Sox any credit for his development.

You type very well. No mistakes. I'm not sure what this has to do with anything. You go to such hyperbole that you're claiming the Boston Red Sox developed a player who never suited up for a single game in their system. You pretend they White Sox had no hand in developing Luis Robert. If the White Sox are as pathetic an organization as you claim, you wouldn't have to make up such ridiculous examples. When pressed, you throw up an unrelated hodgepodge of stats.

I think we're about two steps from claiming that the White Sox never even existed, never won a baseball game, and nobody is on the team.

I'd be surprised if Wes Kath is in the organization next year. Wilfred Veras seems topped out at AA. I think Jacob Gonzalez heads the next group of dudes who start to seep up next season. Galanie, Nishida and Caden Conner are also in that group. William Bergolla. Maybe Antonacci, B. Monty and Nick McClain catch up to them next August.

Pitchers throwing so much harder today . . . are they?

In the case of someone like Clevenger, does this also go for acid usage? The baby mamma was saying how he likes to drop, and MLB has no way to test for it. -
I would have been fine with an Aug 1 or Sept 1 debut, but this is fine. Brooks, Meidroth, Colson, Vargas, Sosa, Teel and Quero - this is the team going forward, so they might as well get them figuring it out together.

And it unnecessarily extends my Twitter-refreshing time by a whole month.

But like conditioning, medical tests have also progressed. In years past, guys would continue to throw on a tweaked arm, lose a couple MPH, but learn a new pitch to stay in the game. It's not that they're more brittle, but there's more ways to find problems earlier, and we have methods to slow down and let some injuries heal before they worsen. -
What would stop another team? A team like the Cubs really don't have the resources, rotation spots, or ability to punt a game or two right now to grab up a guy opting out of a minor league deal on the off chance that he just put it together in his last two PCL starts. And of the 7 teams, or so, positioned to take that gamble, not all 7 are geared up to support a starting pitcher the way the Sox are right now. Sure, anyone could grab up the next Adrian Houser, but we're kind of uniquely positioned with our ability to lose, and our dearth of depth at AAA right now.

Dude, keep it to baseball, would you? Nobody cares about your patty cake games here.

Good job by M.A.T., getting thrown out, and eliminating strikeout opportunities for Kershaw.

Every time Kershaw steps onto a baseball field in a uniform, he digs a deeper hole in hell to spend eternity:

Gerrit Cole.

Gameday: ACL White Sox 4, ACL Mariners 2 Final Score (06/28/2025)

Clayton Kershaw sits at 2997 lifetime strikeouts. I think he gets at least 3 tonight.

Maybe read the stuff you respond to? You're looking at an .899 OPS in May, a heater that actually extended a few weeks into June. You pretend an 11-game slump is "reverting to his career line", while guys like Joey Bart and Al Canario are potential hall-of-famers. LOL. Joey Bart is similar to Vaughn's career line this year (without the HRs), and we don't even have to pretend that. U funny.
-
Vargas started out the season in a 22-game slump, made a mechanical change to his stance, absolutely raked for 50 games, and as the league has adjusted to him, he hasn't done much for the last 11 games. I guess looking at a variety of stats is funny to a bandwagon guy who judges a player by who acquired him. We get it. You hate Chris Getz. You're always going to criticize every single move he makes. You're always going to pretend that good players are actually horrible based on their last at-bat.
-
3 WAR is an above average player. Vargas was a top 40 prospect, and we're starting to see why. He pretends Vargas isn't a promising player because that would destroy his narrative that everything Getz does sucks.

I have no problem with this. Nastrini has not been good in, like, ever. Also, isn't Fraser Ellard on a rehab stint?
-
The Parker brothers are both getting drafted and signed straight to the parent club?

wrong thread I like Baldwin, too.

I get an "Oops, that page can't be found" page from that link.
