I appreciate the “Incomplete/Other” option for dorks like me who can’t summon up the energy to have a strong opinion on players I know next to nothing about.

Y’all upset about this are overlooking the fact that none of these prospects are washed up former Royals.

Erick Fedde opening day starter is all kinds of funny

Since this is the White Sox we're talking about, I'm pretty sure it's all the fans fault in the end.

The Rays one still requires work in order to overhaul org philosophy and invest more in scouting, development and analytics departments, so that’s a no go. The Royals one is more of a thoughts and prayers approach, so it’s perfect for an owner who wants to do as little as possible.

Oscar Schmoscar. It's critical to the future of the franchise that Mike Moustakas gets more at bats.

Thinking back to the TA/Keller thing, what a huge bummer the ways things have played out. TA flamed out with the Sox in embarrassing fashion and now we have the cowardly pitcher who got offended by a bat flip.

I feel like there would be a lot of "I ain't setting foot in that shithole" type meatball sentiments from some Sox fans, which would affect how they draw.

Local art museums out here catching strays.

I remember that start of his.

I don’t necessarily disagree, but what’s the alternative then? Completely relying on drafting and developing your own pitchers seems just as foolish, since only a few orgs have shown the ability to do it successfully and consistently.

Sure sounds like they’re content with fake trying

You mean teams signing good players?

I think that’s Tuesday vs the Dodgers.

Where fans “get to” (aka have to) make their own food.

FASTS

Pretty much, and then they also get to point to defense or leadership or athleticism because those attributes don't come with a high price tag when it's the only thing the player is bringing to the table.

But the thing is, Getz is really really really prioritizing good defense, so I don't think you can just gloss over the fact that Rosario's glove is in question. I'd say that basically makes the Rosario signing a moot point because I don't know that his subpar D even made him a viable candidate in Getz's eyes. BTW this is not an endorsement of the DeJong signing. It's more of trying to understand the logic behind some of the decisions.

Here's another saying: Fan gatekeeping is fucking stupid.

There's Nowhere To Park

He’s becoming a parody of himself.

‘‘I want to take a different approach, which is more effective. Just keep it a little more intimate and get a chance to look at each other in the eyes and just send that message of how important my message is in our message as an organization.’’ ?‍?‍?‍

It does if Pedro continues to only call out younger guys while being afraid of veterans.

A priority for rebuilding teams should always be giving washed up veterans another chance to prove they can still play
