For 2018 but that Missouri St shortstop was awesome

This is quite the slump for Moncada. Hope he gets it going soon in order to earn a promotion

Really ugly AB from Kendall. Missed an 88 mph high fastball and then missed a slider by a lot

Some nice arms going for Sox tomorrow. Who's this Rodon guy going for W-S?

QUOTE (Nokona @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 02:51 AM) 2 bombs from Toffey tonight His stock has to be skyrocketing. Probably best offensive player I've seen in the Regionals

6/5 Game
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 01:41 AM) Thanks fathom I appreciate that. Callis is good at what he does. How much is he being paid to be Kendall's agent? He loves the guy

Wish Giolito didn't give up 11 hits tonight

6/5 Game
QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 01:34 AM) I'm not sure where you're getting your information from but it's wrong. Giolito has given up three hits in four innings. One was a bunt single. Btw, kudos on a great interview with Callis. Was way better than the typical interview done prior to the draft

6/5 Game
QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 02:29 AM) Looks like they changed one of the hits to an error too. This type of start is super encouraging. Yep more impressive than no hitting a bad hitting team. He's striking out some good hitting prospects

Snell is not a pitcher likely to get Moncada out of his slump

2017 MLB DRAFT
In the 4th round range, Toffey from Vandy and Mahan from Kentucky have been super impressive in the games I've seen

2017 MLB DRAFT
Also Evan Skoug in 3rd round would be interesting. Possible catcher who finished strong and is from Libertyville

2017 MLB DRAFT
QUOTE (beautox @ Jun 5, 2017 -> 05:12 PM) I would be open to that, which ever bat they take at 11, Ideally Haseley, Beck Kendall, Adell in that order. If Seth Romero is available at 39 I hope they take him issues and all. I'm intrigued with Drew Ellis from Louisville with 2nd pick

Seth Beer should work all offseason on hitting inside fastballs. It's the only pitch he gets

2017 MLB DRAFT
QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 5, 2017 -> 04:02 AM) Looks like a starter to me. Reminds me of Dane Dunning as a bullpen guy who would be better starting. I always thought other guys (Fulmer, Jay, etc) were more bullpen guys in the future. Agreed, and Kendall just smoked a ball that was caught. He's impressing me this weekend

Renteria is a horrible in-game manager
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jun 5, 2017 -> 02:02 AM) It seems that people are forgetting this. And forgetting that this is Renteria's second season as a manager. The excessive bunting was an issue when he was with the Cubs. He's had a few years to change his philosophy and he clearly hasn't. No denying he's a good teacher and relates well to the players.

Cardinals defense is a total joke. Thanks for nothing this weekend

Renteria is a horrible in-game manager
QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jun 5, 2017 -> 12:20 AM) That may be true but what is he teaching? I saw a video where he had the whole team practicing bunting during the Red Sox series. His love of bunting is scary. Also might want to remind players to cover the base on a steal attempt. Three times this week they forgot.

June 4th Game Thread
QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 4, 2017 -> 11:05 PM) Nah far ftom it. There worst here. They only post when something goes wrong. Fathom has been consistent. A lot worse debbie downers here Yeah I feel I've been fairly consistent this season. Tank away while hoping for Anderson and Rodon to excel. It's ironic that the guys doing the best are those that weren't "trade bait" coming into the year (Avi, Leury, Kahnle) while nearly every trade chip has imploded.
