Yeiner Cano, the #2 prospect from the 2018 class is also unsigned. Cuban RHP who is 25 years old. Could be a good bullpen arm.

Just make it like they do in softball leagues. Once it's called a home run you don't even have to run the bases. Its ceremonial anyway.

Time for Cordell and Palka to trade places.

I didn't realize that is how options work. Good info.Regardless the Sox are in no position to give them up for nothing. They may have to call them up before they are ready.

Wouldn't they just need to be added to the 40 man roster? We have enough dead weight on the 40 man to be able to keep both.

Eloy played there when he was in the Cubs organization. Wear a Sox Eloy Jersey. LOL.

I wonder if this is why we haven't seen the Sox linked to any J2 signings. Going all out on the Cuban market.

Frank Thomas says hello. Not saying Vaughn is anywhere close to Frank but he was drafted as a RH 1B out of college. If the kid can rake I don't care what position he plays.

It's Hahns job to convince JR to pony up the money to sign Harper and the investment it would be. I have no faith he can do it as he failed with Manny.

Confirmed. OJ is signing with the Sox.

I do find it interesting he puts his arm up to try and cover up the logo on the hat.

Unfortunately we traded our Machado away to San Diego.

As long as the Indians don't get "he who must not be named" from the Padres it'll be fine.

Luis Robert in 2020.

Framing wouldn't be needed if umpires could call balls and strikes correctly. Let's get robot strike zones and then framing goes away.

Derek Dieterich got DFA'd by the Marlins. He had a pretty good season last year and is still pretty young. Plays LF/1b

Time for robot umps. Then we wouldn't have to worry about framing.

Back in the 90's the Sox had an A ball team in South Bend. Now it is a cubs affiliate.

I think it's about time MLB starts looking at the technology they have on balls and strikes to call them and get rid of the home plate ump making the call.

I would be interested in playing.

QUOTE (spiderman @ May 20, 2017 -> 11:02 PM) I heard on another site that Keith Law wouldn't have him in the Top 100. So Law will put Tatis Jr. in the top 100 but not Robert who looks like a 5 tool player. SMH.

Does Moncadas September call up start his service even if he doesn't get called up this year until midseason? Not sure how that works.

That would make up for the Shields trade.

Teams don't go by arbitrary top 30 lists from mlb.com. They have their own lists and have their own scouts compiling these lists. Michael Ynoa received a record bonus when he was signed. How did that turn out? It is a crapshoot. These are 16 year old kids your talking about. The sox strategy of going for quantity is a sound strategy. You have a better chance that at least one of these guys pan out than going for the big high dollar players.

Shields is garbage. He's pitching batting practice balls.
