It came out this week that Cubs online stories for the Tribune generate 10-15 times more page views than White Sox stories.

For starters, I would expect better than the Twins scoring 25 of the last 26 runs in the series. Everything about this series after the 2nd inning on Friday sucked. Hitting was terrible, pitching was ridiculously bad besides Covey and the outfield defense was embarrassing.

Goodness this board needs a reboot

Yes, just because his defense is going to be rated so poorly. He will hit his homers, more surprised at how the hit tool has looked so far.

1 run in the last 24 innings or so?

Yeah this is quite the emergence for their organization. They’re in great position for the next few years.

I get the character strengths, but it doesn’t mean much to me if a player’s team won in college, etc. Oregon St. was loaded as you obviously know. You can have all the character in the world, but it doesn’t mean you can easily add 15 pounds of muscle on a frame that might not be able to support it.

If anything, he is a possible platoon to play vs LHP. Contact issues have always been an issue with him. Anyone that ever thought the Collins/Seby platoon was going to be the future at catcher was fooling themselves

Everything points to the ineptitude, this isn’t some crazy secret

Covey is a one to two inning guy. We all know that. Not his fault he’s being forced to face hitters multiple times because the rotation is a disaster.

You don’t remember last year when he looked nervous on every routine fly to LF

He’s had some nice at bats this year, but god help this rebuild if he’s actually worthy of starting

Madrigal’s winning mentality is going to help him hit with more power supposedly.

I don’t feel like Collins is good enough to impact future decisions. Does anyone really think he’s going to be able to hit over .220 in the majors? He will get his walks of course and should have solid power numbers, but we’re talking about a platoon 1b that we have no idea how his defense will be.

It’s less about who they got for him and more about it being another example of how freaking awful the coaching staff is throughout the organization?

Ace is one of the best, most level-headed posters on here. There was basically nothing positive for anyone to mention in today’s game.

It’s like the advanced metrics that shows he had red flags were correct

Herrera is just freaking awful

Assume just rest in a blowout

Have a night Cordell

Everything the Twins hit is a rocket

Amazing how bad Jace has been. Looks like a 2 month wonder.

Lambert is giving up far too many runs in AA. If you put him in AAA, he probably gets rocked.

I love to bring this up, but his single earlier today was like in Little Big League when Billy gets way too excited about his favorite player getting a cheap single to the opposite field...and then being told there’s something wrong with that.

Ump keeps screwing Eloy
