No one thought Palka would be a better option than Avisail in RF but the Sox were still tanking for a high first round draft pick last year.

This is the problem that poppysox is not accounting for. As long as Engel and Leury aren’t overexposed, they are okay as bench players. But Eloy does get hurt. We have seen what both Engel and Leury do when they get a lot of playing time and it isn’t very good.

True story.

Stats prove out his opinion to be fact when it comes to Engel versus Maybin. Also, with Steve Stone tweeting that the Sox aren’t done making moves (most likely for bench pieces), it appears that Hahn may disagree with your opinion as well.

Ideal bench players are guys who can play some defense and hit a bit. Engel is all glove and no bat and Leury is mediocre at both and makes boneheaded defensive plays. No fans of other teams are jealous for an Engel on their bench. James McCann as a backup catcher? Sure, but the rest of our bench is mostly mediocre to bad.

The Cubs can’t even re-sign their own relievers. Hector says that Pedro Strop is deciding between the Marlins and Rangers. https://mobile.twitter.com/hgomez27/status/1220179402027339783

The guy in the first tweet just stated some facts about Pete Rose. It was harmless. The second tweet makes me think that Stone gets pissed if people question his insider knowledge of Sox moves.

Apparently, they were. Did you read the article that caufield linked that I was referencing? https://www.city-journal.org/little-women “Amy Pascal, the movie’s producer, had tweeted that men were not attending screenings of the Greta Gerwig–directed movie due to “unconscious bias” against women.”

Per Heyman (Boras mouthpiece), the Reds are now reportedly interested in Castellanos. https://mobile.twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/1220155827719430144

I was just going to post this after reading his replies to people. Wow. It’s like he gets super pissed off if people don’t listen to his initial tweet on players and question him further. https://mobile.twitter.com/stevestone/status/1219847608027336704 https://mobile.twitter.com/stevestone/status/1219848142171992069

Stoney loves Gatorade celebrations!

Pederson is realistic. I don’t think Betts or Springer are at all.

If class mattered, a lot of guys shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame.

The anticipation is killing me. ?

Does Castellanos’s better bat make up for the difference between his worse defense than Mazara?

He was also a right fielder for 7 seasons, hurting his teams on defense.

And the player you compared Jeter to? Go check out his defensive WAR.

Ah, you’re right. They initially DFA’ed him and then outrighted him to Charlotte but he can still elect to become a free agent instead.

I assumed this meant that Covey accepted the outright assignment. http://m.mlb.com/cws/roster/transactions 1/21/20 Chicago White Sox sent RHP Dylan Covey outright to Charlotte Knights.

Dylan Covey says, “You will never get rid of me!!!” White Sox sent RHP Dylan Covey outright to Triple-A Charlotte.

Jack, I am not a huge fan of either player but you are comparing a player who got more at bats as a DH than in RF to a SS with 5 Gold Gloves? You can even argue Jeter’s defense was overrated if you want but Baines is about that last player you should be using to prove your point.

You have to be able to hit a bit too. Billy Hamilton doesn’t have a job either.

But it’s not really a decade, it’s basically six years because you admitted that draft picks in the last three to four years can’t truly be assessed yet... Congrats, the Sox have drafted well in an arbitrary six year period of time. We should all be thrilled. Amazing statistic. Now I know why Kenny is still employed after years of awful drafting previous to this six year period of time.
