Current Team Mt. Rushmore
Abreu, Anderson, Moncada and Giolito. If it was solely based on potential it would be different. Robert should be on it but we've only seen one 300 PA season from him at his near best. Can't get on Mt. Rushmore without MORE ! Cease is pretty close but also need MORE from Eloy. By the end of the year 1/2 of the 4 could be different.

Even if he could I wouldn't expect great results since they have only had a month to work with him. Usually it take a decent amount of time for a pitcher to adjust to changes even if they are willing.

Old Sock Drawer, ex Sox player discussion
It's not exactly a novel idea for baseball minds to have come up with a better way to have handled him in 2021 if winning and the player's health meant anything.

Old Sock Drawer, ex Sox player discussion
It's a sweet idea but just totally made up by you. It's a theory. I have no idea why they would do that. Somebody in the front office is just a nice guy and really doesn't care that many would think it makes him look stupid. After all he's an MLB GM with a barren farm system who can easily afford to give up draft picks and make it easier for any team who could be your competition in the World Series or playoffs to sign one of the best pitchers in baseball . There is no world where this kind of business practice would be condoned. He's our GM yet with one decision he's making our farm worse and giving our competition a financial break .Sounds like he's working for the competition not the White Sox.

I would have given you a like except there were already 2 of them and I didn't want to mess up the 2 theme.

4/9 Games
That's what I was thinking when I saw him assigned to A+ . Maybe it was because it had been a while since he actually played.However he did hold his own in Japan's Major Leagues in a SSS did he not ? That's where Ichiro and Ohtani and others have come from so not too big a step below MLB.

It was almost like the Sox didn't miss Moncada, Pollock, Kelly and Leury with as much as everyone contributed. Also Timmy just being Timmy and in the lineup is the best.

Micker clears waivers, to Charlotte
You know if ST was any indication of his approach I was actually impressed. I don't like to compare anyone with Robert but if it was Menechino and hard work from Robert that had him going the opposite way and cutting down on K's, that's exactly what I saw Micker doing. Still has a way to go but with his power if he can improve his hit tool and be more selective I like his chances.

Danny and the Juniors (Mendick, McGuire, Harrison, Engel) all did pretty good. Since I haven't seen anything about Kopech yet, it was a very nice outing by him also.

And with that Cubs logo that he has wisely took off his avatar.

Awesome ! if he can make it through the 4th with just the 1 run that would be a great way to start his season.

Getting a late start on the season I'm sure they just want him to establish some kind of command on the fastball 1st and foremost. He can't be successful until he does that or else you will be seeing a lot of early exits .
