Is Jake Burger
A possibility to fill the void at second base? Having his bat in the lineup every day would be great, I’m just not sure he could make the switch to second base. Thoughts??

The kid from Arkansas, Kopps would be a fantastic pickup in round 3 or 4.

7/2 Games
I attended the WS game versus Greenville, Cespedes struck out every at bat. Second game I’ve seen him play, has struck out 7 of the 8 at bats.
-
6/22 games
So I was at the Dash game last night in Asheville. This 94 year old park is the smallest park I have ever seen. Some of the home runs would have been routine fly outs in many of the parks. Regarding Cespedes, he was drilled at least two times during the game and he’s still hit less. The team was down 9-0, but did fight back to tie game at 12.

It's ridiculous. What's the deal with Yoelqui??
Great post Vile. I could not agree with you more. It’s borderline shocking this young man is still not playing for one of the minor league teams and no one seems to have an answer why, other than Visa issues.

Couple Questions
With so many knowledgeable fans on this site, I would like to hear from a few of you on the following? Not considering an injury to a current big league player, who’s the next position player do you feel will be called up to the big leagues? Does anyone feel we have our right fielder of the future currently playing in the minors?

Cespedes
Is there any date given on when he might arrive? With every passing day, he’s missing out on advancing his career!

Cespedes
Why is Y Cespedes not playing for any of the White Sox minor league teams yet?

How much do we count on:
Just a thought, With Brantley now signing with the Jays, we could be looking at both Collins and Mercedes as a DH/backup catcher when the season starts. They might try this for up to 30 games and decide then if Vaughn needs to be called up if either Collins or Mercedes is spinning their wheels.

How much do we count on:
Andrew Vaughn and Zach Collins to be both the permanent DH and back up catcher for the upcoming 2021 season? Both are high first round picks that “should” fit the mold of filling these two important roles. It’s time to see if they can play.

July 2nd Latest from Futuresox & our James
First of all, great news on the apparent upcoming signing of Yoelki Cespedes!!! Thoughts on where Yoelki ends up on the White Sox prospect list once he signs? Are we talking top three talent? Is there a chance he’s on the roster this year?

Right Field
Let’s see what they do this year before we call them bust. I’m thinking either Rutherford or Adolfo steps up this year.

Baseball America unveils White Sox Top 10
If the White Sox land Oscar Colis, where does he end up fitting in the top 10 prospects.

Right Field
Is it possible that Rick Hahn is not looking to sign one of the bigger right field free agents because Oscar Colas is officially signing in January and they believe he’s ready to step in no later than 2022?

July 2nd Latest from Futuresox & our James
Time for the White Sox to get to work and lock this kid down!!

Jake Burger Thread
I’ve been saying from the beginning this young man is going to make it in the bigs. Too much talent!!
-
Right Field
Do the White Sox role the dice and give either Rutherford or Adolfo a shot at starting in right fielder For the 2021 season or do we absolutely go out and land a free agent? I’m almost wondering if off season spending needs to be for starting pitching?

Jake Burger Thread
I’ve got a good feeling about this guy, I predict he’s in the bigs by 2022.

Opening Day 2nd Basemen
I believe it’s time for the White Sox to name Nick Madrigal as there starting second basemen. All indications point to him being mature beyond his years, so why throw him out there. I just can’t see him being on the roster and being a backup and possibly playing every third day. Let the future start now for this young man!!
-
Why Aren’t They in Camp???
Thoughts from all on why Adolfo and Rutherford were not invited to the “Summer” Camp? Shouldn’t these two young talents at least have been given a chance to compete versus the regular big leaguers? Having them sit around will not Help develop their skills.

Jake Burger Thread
Just saw his hitting video on Twitter, he’s looking Really Good. It would be very disappointing if Jake has to wait until next year to play.

Amateur Draft Signings
The MLB website is posting an article of post draft amateur signings and the White Sox are not even mentioned. Some teams have at least 7 to 8 players heading to those teams. Is there a reason why we are not signing any players?
