Look at Ray Ray Run

Bullpens by far the most easy thing to build/turn around in one season. They need some position players no doubt though.

The command of Thorpe so far has been very concerning.

Nothing in baseball nosier still than defensive metrics. I'm pretty sure there's not much worry about an elite defender suddenly becoming a liability. Even if he lost 1 step.

A lot of people seem to think teams move off valuations based on 100 ABs. CF is the weakest offensively it's ever been - in MLB history. It's the weakest offensive position in baseball. Doubt many are too worried about Roberts 171 babip.

I agree with your sentiment but am very confident saying colas is not a big leaguer.

Colas is one of the worst players I've ever watched. Does nothing well

Why would the Sox trade for more pitching?

15/yr is an anchor lol?

It's the only reason I watch the white sox these days, so for me there's a reason to hold him. I only watch when he pitches. I also will never promote acting like a small market coward even if that is the likely outcome. I bet garrett would be open to some kind of extension but it wouldn't be cheap cheap.

The odds of any of these pitchers being as good as crochet is about .01%.

There's ZERO reason to trade crochet for anything but a complete kings ransom. He's showing, with his age and contract, that he's one of the 5 most valuable pieces in the game imo.

Crochet belongs in the top 5 arms in the game conversation. The way he spots his fastball is unreal.

Shriffen reads the pitch designation on the screen like Ron burgundy reads a teleprompter - whatever it says, it is!

Camera not showing every time but looks like they're waving/reaching back for the base on change up. Surprised how exposed his hand is there.

He's gotta protect that hand better with man on second. Pretty sure runner gave him change indicator and then nothing so knew fastball there. You can see his hand

Nothing helps a young pitcher quite like a catcher who is the worst hitter in the history of baseball.

He's a unicorn. Trading him would be wild.

Mlb.com about as good at scouting and prospect rankings as caufield is at citing sources.

They could be the only team that doesn't have a viable MLB player.

If crochet is on his game tonight, this could be one of the best pitched games you ever see. Boston stinks versus lefties.

Our last couple drafts looking solid so far. While that 1.1 is nice, baseball is won by hitting on a handful of players per draft in some capacity.

Drafting highly is whatever in baseball. It matters much less than in other sports.

2027 is a long way away. An eternity in baseball years. Saying this is just doom and gloom or younger folks speaking.

I'm not sure how many times this needs to be brought up, but when you have two good MLB players it's not impressive to have a nice AA roster.

Schriffen last night... Pedro always says anything we get with thr bat from Martin is just a bonuss.. John, that's to excuse a guy hitting like 210 and playing elite defense. Not to excuse a guy hitting. 080
