QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 7, 2017 -> 08:27 PM) Death, taxes, and the Ducks blowing 3-2 series leads Good. Can't stand that team. With the Blues losing, I only need to see Anaheim and Pittsburgh lose and I'll be happy as a neutral fan the rest of the way.

The Rotation and Covey Situation
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 7, 2017 -> 12:38 PM) Whatever happened to all the rebuild guys, team must lose for draft picks? The guy has sucked. He is a rule 5 guy, and there is a 99.9% chance when you throw a rule 5 guy directly in a major league rotation, he will suck. The team is going nowhere. Why are the White Sox widely criticized on this board for "rushing" prospects, but every damn time there is the first sign of a guy sucking or of a minor leaguer going on a roll, the same people who b**** about it, want them to do what they b**** about? Let guys develop. It isn't necessary to see what some of these guys can do at the major league level yet. Make sure they are ready. Let Covey get destroyed while that happens. A good week, a good 2 weeks, a good month isn't proof. If you really want a rebuild, you have to be patient or it isn't going to ever work. I applaud you for this post DA. Nicely done.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) I wonder if anything has changed with him mechanics or stuff wise. I know he's doing a great job changing eye levels on his pitches. But that's all I've heard.

May 6th Game Thread: White Sox at Baltimore
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:32 PM) Lol...talk about moving the goalposts. I called him a legit prospect, which Feeky would agree with. I never once called him a top prospect, which is what you are implying. Feeky already clarified and I said my post after if you missed it. Miscommunication.

May 6th Game Thread: White Sox at Baltimore
QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:22 PM) Just to clarify, I meant that Matt Cooper is not a top prospect in the sense that he is not ranked at the top of prospect lists and not at an age-appropriate level, and should therefore be exempt from service time concerns, not that I don't think he's a legit prospect. I think he'll be a quality major-league starter. Pretty much agree with everything except that. But people differ on prospects with age just like the ceiling/floor argument.

May 6th Game Thread: White Sox at Baltimore
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:15 PM) Wow, you do realize that Feekey is Matt Cooper's biggest fan and would consider him a legit prospect right? He already said he was 26, not a top prospect but would rather give him a chance. I'm in 100% agreement with him. I know how big of a fan he is. Been posting (and was a writer) on FS for years so certain posters I know who likes who. I probably should've added "legit" as well which probably threw you off.

May 6th Game Thread: White Sox at Baltimore
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) I'm sorry, but WTF are you implying here? A guy striking out 13 per 9 innings in AA is a prospect. Not even gonna get into it. Feeky is right on the money though.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 6, 2017 -> 08:00 PM) Cooper is a legit prospect and should be developed though. I see the word prospect is just being thrown around like nothing these days.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER
Sox are 8-0 when team hits 2+ homers in a game. Clearly the mashing ways are needed for sustained success.
