I'm back. https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/20/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-20

With the layoff and youth, I think second half splits may be more of a barometer. Tough cause some guys may also tire out. Just hope some guys show growth for systems overall benefit.

Sorry late . Kelley starting. Stiever for Char. https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/11/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-11

I want guys good at baseball not just athletes but I want them capable of playing/staying at premium positions. So, I want more up the middle guys than corners. Not necessarily in the first but you never have enough catchers.

Lambert out after 1 2/3 and 41 pitches . Hopefully planned

Might make sense vs lefties but I think it would require Anderson bringing it up.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms! https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/09/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-09 Lambert for Charlotte

Gonzalez has a back issue. On minor league injury list. Not sure on Krogman

https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/08/2021 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-08 Yesterday was tough as faced several prospect pitchers. Hopefully today is better. Goodwin dh yesterday. Gonzalez hurt so guess Goodwin is hope for a bat improvement over Hamilton or what purpose does Lamb serve? Is Mendick shagging balls in the outfield?

Lets go! https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-07 https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/07/2021

What a sad situation for him and I sure hope we don't! He never should have left Cardinals. Could have been their next ambassador for life.

https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox/2021-05-06 https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=05/06/2021 Lot of TBD. Added second view of the minors games. Enjoy! Go Sox!

I haven't read all 18 pages but I think the manager is taking blame and deflecting it from the players. Ozzie made himself the story when we slumped in 2005 and I recall players saying it made it easier for them not getting choke questions. Very likely something similar and at the same time , he is learning his roster. I am an optimist by the way.

I haven't seen it mentioned, but in the next CBA, the DH likely comes to the NL. Yermin is cheap and probably gets by as a third/emergency catcher as well as DH. He would have value if he continues to hit. Eloy would have health as a question mark unless he returns this year and looks good. He doesn't want to DH. Eloy would have the more expensive contract and if teams think he is a DH only .....you won't get value in return. Prior to his injury, I thought Eloy might be the best hitter on this years team. Vaughn is coming around with the bat. Positional versatility, better defense, younger, cheaper. Agree that Abreu won't be going anywhere. Interesting to maybe have to many good bats.

I think Vaughn would have gone down if AAA games were being played and one of the options there was tearing it up. I think putting him in everyday in a less stressful environment would help clear his head. Unfortunately , we can't send most of the lineup down to get clear at the same time LOL.

Maybe to keep him stretched out

Agree, he was impressive and liked the understanding that it is a relationship between coach and pitcher and that each pitcher is wired/reached differently. Not a one way mentality.

Thanks yes it’s on in Alabama! Go Sox, Roll Tide!!!

How will these work if u are out of market but have mlbtv?

If Sheets/Burger light up the early MILB season, they become prime trade deadline candidates. Blocked guys who could get you something good without affecting your core players.

Think we may be bargain shopping at two levels. First the decent starter who wants $ or years and not getting offer he likes. We would be hoping for one year prove it deal and the pitcher would at least be on a contender. Second level is guy willing to come on minor league deal and prove it in spring training.

Looked at Marwin. Surprised that besides 2017, he hasn't been very good. Flat out bad last year with OPS .606 I could see minor league invite but doubt takes. These are guys who may go to a bad team that offers regular playing time/ML contract.

If you look at our lineup, the DH slot prob hits 7-8 when it is Collins/Mercedes eventually Vaughn who could go to 6. We have some players who may regress but look at the potential improvement Edwin OPS .627 Mazzara .589 Moncada(ill) .705 Robert .738 Not having the veteran DH only, allows you to mix and match, try multiple, ride the hot hand, rest guys. A manager who should know how to handle that part of strategy especially since the NL game required more manager maneuvering is also in place.

Thats the crazy part of this, if he is good it is 2-85. If he gets hurt, say TJ and can't pitch it really becomes 2-105. All risk by the club. I mean good for him for getting this kinda deal. In earlier posts, I questioned if you want Bauer sitting next to young guys you are trying to lock up long term. How do you ask Gio to take 15-20 if his teammate makes 40-45?
