It’s really difficult seeing him have more than 1 or 2 good seasons in him at the most. I would never resign this guy.

Frank Thomas skipped AAA. All that matters is if a guy can play if called up. Sosa never really had a chance. Colas should be encouraged if players in the org can skip AAA. OTOH, if Colas is friends with Yolbert…..That conversation between them might be negative if they feel stuck

I would bet money it’s a misunderstanding as far as what the story is actually about. Even if he was held back too long (for his taste), he can’t be stupid enough to start a self immolation process at an important part of his career that is so far successful. Impatience can’t make a sane person do this right?

If Eloy embraces his future as a first base/DH guy, Im down.

These are the droids we were not looking for

Basically, the way JR has never fixed the farm system is the center of the dysfunction. Always wanted to be smarter than the rest of MLB by doing it the JR way. His franchises have always had a funky scent

And strangely, they are NOT paying for the honor like the White Sox were. They just felt like kicking their own ass .

So, pitching experts., what may we attribute to Cease having more success the last couple times put to right the ship? Gotta bottle that stuff. The Sox might be able to survive with a big 4 of Cease, Lynn, Cueto and Kopech, Giolito having velocity issues is making me feel like we are rolling the dice if the Sox make the playoffs and Giolito is forced into a prominent rotation roll at a low velocity package.

I will be exited about the Angels being shorthanded, and bumslaying after the team consistently plays good baseball. Until then we are just another crab in the barrel.

Sometimes when you win, you really lose. And sometimes when you lose, you really win. And sometimes when you win or lose, you actually tie, and sometimes when you tie, you actually win or lose. Winning or losing is all one organic mechanism, from which one extracts what one needs

But, the schedule!

Sosa is the only member of the team that must immediately produce. Or is held to quality standards. I have never seen a manager put so much pressure on a fresh kid in public.

….As opposed to any number of scrubs not named Sosa that can suck ass for as long as they want

i guess we know why he doesnt steal bases. He wouldnt last half a season

Nm, misread. I’m wondering what the implication of a permanent Sosa would be about Moncada. Not that Harrison and Leury need to play. But that’s a lot of guys hanging around.

sorry I don’t know how to embed “James Fox @JamesFox917 ·4m If the #WhiteSox called up Lenyn Sosa from @BhamBarons, I believe he’d be in the big leagues to stay. They won’t be interested in adding him to the 40-man briefly with the intention of a short stint. Could be an interesting 24 hours.” https://mobile.twitter.com/JamesFox917/status/1539777118434955265

My body is ready…… for him to blow out his hamstring at GRF Who does Yolbert have to choke to get a shot? Sosa must really look nice to leapfrog the 2 million dollar man. https://mobile.twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/1539231147846246400

Nothing about them is the same. Other than being right handed white guys. Vaughn is a sweet swinging rhythmatic artist with the bat and should make more contact. Konerko is more a banger Vaughn is little. Konerko is big. Vaughn has (some) wheels. Konerko has cement squares.

He flings the ball like T Rex

Anger is an energy. we will see. Everyone was happy the previous 2 winning streaks only to crash later. Being bumslaying for a couple months won’t be anything new to the team. They should hit more, but the starters and defense worry me for the playoffs

It is still amazing that Tony has yet another coherent lineup that features a degree of consistency. What the fuck was wrong with him for dozens and dozens and dozens of game to this point that has changed?
