I didn’t realize prielipp was gonna be a guy around so I’d put him at 1a, but I like snelling a lot. Holy crap is it going to be annoying getting autocorrected to smelling.

Imagine if he was a Yankees prospect how much tweets about it from the national guys would be happening

I found that very confusing to follow

Ok after finally reading all the paragraph blurbs that are exclusively what I base my opinions on I have decided I don’t actually know which way I’d go in this draft at all. I am kinda more sympathetic to the heavy pitching draft. Tolman/Anthony seems difficult for where they are pitching wise in the org.

The key to Hahns success with the cheerleader contingent is to set the bar so low that when the player isn’t an absolute failure it feels like success.

The Sox are headed for the dark ages anyway. They are a big market team (get less draft and intl capital than their division) but don’t use a big market budget. They have not tried to compensate by having world class scouting or player development or analytics. They have bad mlb scouting which negates what payroll advantage they have. They hit the lottery with Sale/Q and sold them when the top teams in the league had the top farms. This team is pot committed with this team and Hahns mid GMing. This gets them top talent at least. Otherwise, we sign joc pederson next offseason and enjoy having Colson Montgomery on a 70 win team in 2025

If it works the Sox win a WS and you get sentimental billionaire money to re-sign players a la the Nats signing Stras

I just think in the off-season after 2018 we were looking at a team with lots of top players coming up but a missing infielder and RFer. Since then we’ve thrown nomad Mazara, Eaton, and Pollock/Sheets in RF. It ain’t getting fixed. Meanwhile they’ve found top pitchers in cueto, cease, last-year Lynn added. Hahn needs to admit he’s garbage and just yolo it imo

Of course they should get him. He’s a top 5 player in baseball. If you have him for 2.5 years only that’s literally the window anyway. Could this team be better with the best left handed hitter in baseball from his 23-25 year old years? That only depends on what you are sending out.

Soto would know if he’s roiding

Everyone knows it’s not happening. But the idea that “sign him when he’s a free agent” is MORE realistic is hilarious. Look around, he won’t be a free agent. Betts didn’t become a free agent. Trout didn’t become a free agent. You have to get them.

You need to build that and get Juan Sotos.

I think the only real way Sox can do it is if they trade out giolito. Trading Vaughn defeats the purpose. The other thing is taking Strasberg back. You really can’t do this trade if it depletes major leagues too much. It has to be additive.

Oh I think you are posting this because he sucks

If I was a team like the cubs I’d rather just try to trade for a comp pick to get that budget.

That’s really not even close to an example of irony. Couldn’t be less related.

Amazing how it’s the vets that keep letting this team down. with a big exception of Abreu.

Sucks to suck

Alvaro Aguero finding some real power in ACL. 19 y.o. CF

Oh boy. One of these games eh

Ugh!!!

Yuck. Hitting absolutely ice cold except DSL. No chappy today thou

Me too. I already raised my hand. oh joy. More ground balls.

Exactly.

Some real OKC vibes to Washington in they had that incredibly star laden team and the only one they could keep was Strasberg. But they won a chip so respect. The Sox will not be a player but you should do everything for Soto.
