Good challenge, not on the base

Yes

I think he's also gotten bigger as he gets older, which has slowed him down a tad

Was just looking at that, seems like a rough scoring decision

LeBlanc must have reverse splits with Palka also playing

To me, absolutely not

Well Abreu still can't field

My god that's not even close to a strike.

Quick math but I'm pretty sure Collins is batting .185 without Eloy in Birmingham and .284 with him there. Probably coincidental but wonder if having someone on base in front of him more often prevented fewer shifts and got him more fastballs.

Welp he's officially a top Sox prospect now.

Contreras is also drawing rave reviews this year

Certainly possible, which makes me much rather see him than Engel or Tilson

That package puts them in the conversation for an ace. That's 4 possible top 100 guys

Can he use an aluminum bat this time?

Saw Eloy catch a few fly balls in LF. He's never going to get mistaken for Alex Gordon out there, but he looked fine.

Have a feeling Cubs are gonna use Happ and more of their young position players to get a big time pitcher. I know there are rumors of DeGrom, and they started playing Bote in LF in the minors in case Happ is dealt.

I noticed there was a mound visit before an official batter in the top of the 2nd and thought it was odd.

Is Getz there?

Should be an automatic hit and run if anyone is on base. To be fair, his chopping ability is also why I don't think he'll ever put up significant ISO numbers.

I'm aware, just seems like another situation where a loss here or there could have really given the Sox a chance at a better player in the long run (i.e..Benintendi)

Don't disagree, especially with Adell and Hiura looking like studs

A lot would have to go wrong for that to happen

Best prospect in baseball according to KLaw today. Well done Sox

Pilkington debuted for AZL tonight

Brad Goldberg in to face Barons. I forgot he was in the majors last year, and forgot he had an impressive 14/3 walk to K ratio
