Davidson! Look out Griffey

Keep wondering if Dodgers need a top set-up man. Would love to get future DH Calhoun from them

White Sox pick 3B Jake Burger at #11
QUOTE (Soha @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 04:28 PM) While recognizing that drafts need to be judged years later - yeah, I came away feeling a but underwhelmed. And again, I think it's partly because last year's draft would have been hard to match. And also this year's first round seemed to take a big drop down at our exact #11 pick. I feel like last year's draft is a bit overrated

Awesome for Hanson. He bopped that one. Guarantee Pirates fans are pissed

6/14 vs Orioles
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 04:51 AM) Agreed. You may get someone who claims him on waivers to eat the rest of his 2018 salary, but the most you are getting for him is a 40 FV guy with tools. Really, I don't see any harm in keeping him in the rotation until September 1st or even the end of the season, but there's no need for him in 2018. If they cut him prior to that point, so be it. He's a FA after this year

Pelfrey pitching in relief is odd. Really makes me wonder if a move is about to be made (combined with Lopez scratch)

Omar should be allowed to take steroids. Amazing how little power he has, ISO under .020

Anderson swinging at far too many pitches out of the zone. Desperately needs to move closer to the plate and/or close his stance

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 03:32 AM) Oh darn. I'm so disappointed by this turn of events. This has been great so far

6/14 vs Orioles
Haha he is so awful. Not much more to see with him this year. Love seeing managers more concerned with starter being eligible for the win instead of making a change

6/14 vs Orioles
QUOTE (daggins @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 04:22 AM) Doubt it. I think he finishes out the season with the Sox. That return (org depth, $ saved) seems more likely for Derek Holland. Nothing to be gained by keeping him. Probably want to give some of his starts to the young guys

Gonzalez really sucks this year. He will get traded at the deadline for a non top 20 org guy

6/14 vs Orioles
Astros remind me of 2005 WSox and 2016 Cubs. Everything coming up roses for them. Martes was garbage in AAA and then does well in the majors

6/14 vs Orioles
QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 02:18 AM) If the Sox get a sense this is for real, I'm sure they'll try and extend him for his prime years, which interestingly enough, would align nicely with the rebuild timeline. Still find it fascinating he's a little over 200 days older than Kris Bryant

6/14 vs Orioles
QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 02:07 AM) I'm sold on him for 2017. I still don't like the idea of the long-term deal (I know many aren't suggesting that). No rush at all. I also think he would love to stay if they decide during next year to extend him

2017 Cubs Catch-all thread
QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 02:00 AM) This used to be a fathom owned thread. At one game under .500, where you at???? Last year zapped so much of my Cubs obsession

6/14 vs Orioles
QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 03:01 AM) What if Avi is actually really good? Obviously not a .335 hitter forever but if he's a .300 hitter from now on, he is a tremendous asset to the rebuild I'm sold on him

Awesome Timmy! Love how he laid off first pitch slider and then sat on the fastball

White Sox pick 3B Jake Burger at #11
After a few days of thinking about it, I have absolutely no idea what to expect from Burger.

6/14 Games
QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 12:45 AM) Still seeing way too many offensive players regress rather than progress while in the White Sox system. I was thinking today how Booker is only hitter over .300 in the minor league system. Pretty pathetic

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 12:43 AM) Meanwhile, Moncada is one at-bat away from the .260's. Not earning that promotion right now
