Nonsense. Every word of it.

gross

Greg's reputation goes as Abreu goes

Not to derail the thread with positivity, but could the Sox win all of the following: Manager of the year Executive of the year ROTY MVP

Chances for Subway (Crosstown) White Sox/Cubs series this year
chitown87 replied to tray's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Red Line Series FTW -
Probably a stupid question here - if something like a grip could potentially dramatically improve his spin and make him a much more effective pitcher, why hasn't the organization done that at some point in the minors or last offseason? Do organizations track this kind of spin rate etc for high end pitching prospects? I don't mean that as a critique of the organization or of Cease, just curious.

If the Sox don't have $6 million to spend in a year where $45 million is coming off the books and they're legit contenders, then they might as well just fold it up. I get what you're saying - covid, etc. But man, I can't describe how infuriating that would be.
-
I'm a tad bit drunk (oops) but if the sox find a way to land Ninmo without giving up Dunning/Kopech, and sign Bauer - they're the 21 WS favorites in my mind. That's an automatic grand slam offseason, and there's really no reason it shouldn't be possible.

Rough first inning - looked like jitters leading to loss of command. The game thread was absolutely ridiculous. He looked really solid other than that, though I do think it's fair to wonder why his velocity wasn't quite as high as advertised.

Tuned in to the 9th for the potential no-no. Cubs announcers are awful. Wow.

I love game threads.

Hahn: Andrew Vaughn "could help the team this season"
chitown87 replied to Jose Abreu's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Yep. And Kopech opting out this year gave them the perfect excuse to do it, too. No chance he breaks camp with the team. -
Pretty sure there isn't a speed bias for short white dudes

Reynaldo Lopez Optioned to Schaumburg
chitown87 replied to MiddleCoastBias's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I missed this. What did he say? -
You're both correct. For me personally, a lot of the frustration these last two games is that we just NEVER seem to play well against the Twins and it drives me insane.
-
Awhile longer is probably like 4+ years from the time of being drafted, right?
-
Curious about the big 4 of young pitching prospects from the last two drafts - Thompson, Dalquist, Crochet, and Kelly. As the article stated, Crochet could be a quick mover. What's a realistic timeframe for him to eventually make a major league impact if all goes well? What about with the 3 high school guys?

He's as sick of watching the team's garbage at bats as we are -
Hahn: Andrew Vaughn "could help the team this season"
chitown87 replied to Jose Abreu's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Maybe I'm a meatball, but does a dude that's never hit above A ball need to be inserted into the 3 hole right away? -
Seems like the Sox could pretty easily make McCann a competitive offer in terms of $$ (ignoring Covid impacts on future Sox payrolls which are unknown at this point). The real problem is that it would effectively block Vaughn since Abreu is signed for 2 more years and to have any hope of signing McCann, you'd have to assume both he and Grandal would be playing plenty of DH.

Not to mention Moncada hasn't consistently been right this year, either -
I don't know if Sox Machine is a blog, or podcast, or something else, but those dudes just seem really negative and awful on twitter whenever I see their names. Makes me have zero interest in consuming whatever product they put out.

Not even close with a single pitch.
