  1. With the knock on his catching he just isn't a good fit for the young pitchers. That's the reason the Sox got rid of Narvaez . They couldn't fix Narvaez and it's highly doubtful they fix Swihart. The Sox are going to try Seby and Collins who also have defensive question marks although we've heard the pitchers seem to like them both . Collins will be good for HRs and has a strong arm and should walk his fair share. Why keep screwing around with catchers when we already are basically trying out McCann because of his youth and have Seby and Collins just around the corner .Castillo has plenty of time to start hitting .might as well just wait and see if he can be moved for anything.
  2. Hell no Swihart is Omar Narvaez without the hitting. Say no to bad defense. Castillo is better, McCann is better.
  3. The closers or relievers like Herrera and Colome are more than just wasted money but I'm sure you have heard my arguments before. They could possibly be traded and if they both have good peripherals that's a big plus. They also provide protection for not just the young arms in the rotation but also the young arms in the bullpen. It would be a revolving door of total suck in the bullpen without those 2. I'd rather the young BP arms get eased into roles and I'm pretty sure you do too since you always talk about prospects being rushed which seems counter to your arguments for being against spending money on Colome and Herrera. Either you want guys to get eased in or you don't want high priced relievers (and really they aren't that high priced). You can't have it both ways. Apparently you have also given up on thinking they might be worth some decent prospect at the deadline. Way too much tunnel vision by you.
  4. I didn't know the story had ended .
  5. It's kind of funny seeing you not thinking this trade was so bad since later on you and Chicago White Sox really got into it about Narvaez. Even your comments here would seem to support the idea that McCann was the right choice given his age. Yet you constantly badmouthed MaCann later too or maybe it was the idea that $2.5M was too much for him.
  6. Good call . Despite the not being able to see past their nose crowd chanting he sucks he sucks, McCann was a good choice since he was the youngest cheap choice and catchers have a tendency to develop late . That's how rebuilds work, pick the youngest guy and see what happens. More than likely he is what he is but hey you never know.
  7. 2 in a row 3 out of 4 . Rolling !?!
  8. Not a good start but double play time.
  9. Ok Colombo time to close it out So Yolmer can't hit into a DP
  10. West seems like one of those old school umps who knows who's batting and rookies get no slack.
  11. 3 runs in 5 inning isn't a bad start. Probably one of our best so far. The way everyone was yelling with pitchforks and torches I figured Sanatna gave up 20 runs.
  12. Ok guess it's 3-2 and Leury and Moncada did some good things.
  13. I mean since then apparently we are now tied ?
  14. So my game day seems to have stopped with Duda leading off the top of the 6th. Anyone want to say whats going on ?
  15. This time he will be Supernatural .
  16. So you have some kind of reference you can point out to me to support you statement or are you just trying to say anything to support your inaccuracy to try to sound more informed than you really are ? I didn't know there was some place that kept these age related stats for "actual prospects ".
  17. I thought for sure a great game is any game where Timmy hits a grand slam for you.
  18. According to baseball Reference he is 1,8 years younger than the weighted average age for all the batters in the league so Jack;s answer was wrong.
  19. Will be turning 22 in May
