  1. Was my favorite acquisition last year. Happy to see he's putting it together thus far.
  2. Cominsky Park, to reflect proper South Side pronunciation.
  3. If they do this I'd like something modeled on Old Comiskey, but that has no upper deck in LF to offer a view of downtown. Even if it isn't the best view, having the city present will be a draw.
  4. I know, I wrote that. Was agreeing with you premise.
  5. I agree with your overall point but Baltimore (Memorial Stadium), Pittsburgh (Three Rivers) Cincinnati (Riverfront), Philly (Veterans), Detroit (Tigers Stadium), and Cleveland (Municipal) were all in the city and in three the new park was built in almost the same location as the old park. Unless you meant they abandoned plans for suburban parks? Either way, I think that reiterates your point even more: baseball has largely always been played in denser urban locations and it remains easily the dominant landscape for it today.
  6. It did, but of course he's young, and his numbers were clearly better after the trade than before it.
  7. Surprised Quero dropped, he played well after being traded.
  8. I didn't put them in order, he'd probably be #4. I doubt he isn't with them this season but I suppose it's possible. Tough to give up a dude who made 31 starts and pitched 170 innings in this era.
  9. I love Crawford. And I'm not so sure he can't develop power, he's barely a college freshman's age. Either way, he's got all the other tools. I think Abel and Crawford plus another strong piece would be great. Painter and Crawford would be great too.
  10. I mentioned the Phillies a while back. They could offer a great package but they have a solid five man rotation already, iirc. Wheeler, Walker, Nola, Suarez, and Sanchez. The first four are obvious, and Sanchez broke out as a starter last year.
  11. An insane contract for a dude who averaged like 80 innings over his career.
  12. I would prefer one of them and a top position player. I don't personally want the top 2 guys to both be pitchers, but of course that is just preference. Also I'm not trying to disparage Lowder - he has amazing stuff. Just think Petty is also a very, very good prospect.
  13. Of course, all the other players in my inital deal were position players.
  14. To me, Petty is younger than Lowder, further along in the system, and he thoroughly dominated last year at A+ and a little AA, albeit only 60 innings. Don't think Lowder has even thrown a professional pitch.
  15. Don't think they are giving up basically their top two prospects. It's a deep system though.
  16. I'd say that both of those young guys look really good so far also not close to MLB Maybe make the 4th guy is another in that category or someone who is already there but lower ceiling. I am also high on Marte, so I guess that plays in to not needing at top 75 second piece.
  17. I feel like Marte as a centerpiece would be fantastic. Marte, Petty, Jorge, and someone young down the list be a great pakcage.
  18. I would say yes, that's more than the Sox will get. IMO one of Mayo or Basallo plus another of their top 8 or so would be a win.
  19. I'd say the '25 trade deadline at the earliest. No way they can get his value before then.
  20. I meant if he was coming off that type of season right now. But, fair.
  21. I think most people would give up more than that for 2022 Cease. I doubt he'll be on the Sox on opening day.
