DSL currently winning 4-3. Erick Hernandez 1-1 with a BB and an RBI single. Great news, we have another Jose Rodriguez, this time a pitcher.

We got em all yee haw https://www.mlb.com/prospects/stats/affiliates?teamId=145&date=06/07/2022 https://www.milb.com/scores/chicago-white-sox

Cam butler had a 3b last night. My god Elijah Tatis had one of the worst careers of any minor league player I can remember. Another 0-4 4K night, and it’s like that like every game. Not trying to be mean but it’s kinda hard to believe, it’s like what would happen if you stuck a 14 year old in a game.

There is so much personality in the CWS this year. I say this watching roc riggio crank a ball for a double starting a comeback in Stillwater.

Yikes AZL looks pretty boring until July.

I'm really bummed about Romy too. Who knows if he gets injured if he's up to start year instead of Mendick. Underrated how insanely good his year was last year. Now he may get skipped for good from Yolby.

Great stuff in there. They had Roberth Gutierrez playing 1B today, so I wonder if always rotating a catcher to 1b/DH helps give some playing time to that relatively larger group.

Started scoring runs after I stopped paying attention. The top of lineup both had a great game. Burrowes was 2-4 with a 2B, 3 RBI and a SB, most importantly no Ks Guil Rodriguez finished 2-4 with that SB. Also apparently Ronny Hernandez double was changed to a single and stolen base at some point lol.

Ronny Hernandez is a 17 y.o. signed just in June and hit a double. Catcher from Turmero, Venezuela it looks like.

Good start for 19 y.o. Gabriel Rodriguez (year 2 in DSL), who struck out 3 so far. No Erick Hernandez today. We do have Guillermo Rodriguez leading off. From Badler: And sure enough he made 1st on an error, stole 2nd, then got thrown out at 3rd. Wish more of our DSL players would just wreak havoc like this. Ryan Burrowes is the other guy to watch in this lineup, starting 2b.

so annoying. Was hoping they'd show back up this year.

https://www.prospectslive.com/prospects-live/2022-mlb-mock-draft-n78w7-st9r4 Tucker Toman to the sox. For some reason I read his name in a sylvester the cat voice.

ah, and for next class. Oh well best of luck to the guy.

I am in favor of riding hot hands. It's hard because you know if Harrison is dfa'd he'll get picked up and have a better half but I really think at this point we have some vets that are way too comfortable. Not Abreu or even grandal, but I do kinda want the sox to tell moncada he's fighting for a starting spot. Nobody wants to buy a logo of a backup infielder.

Fortunately next year we'll be back near the top ten (jk maybe) but woof at a draft where we are just sorting through a bunch of college outfielders. I don't know, I kinda like brock jones. His swing looks nice and easy and just looks like a guy that would be on the dodgers and you'd look up and he'd have a .900 ops but you'd be saying isn't very good.

I've given up on tackles, if anything hoping the rumored cut of Seumalo to RG is what I'm hoping can happen.

Why were you okay taking a shot on an injured, no track record Crochet with an 11th overall pick but against people using a pick on Rocker in the late first?

I guess the one thing I'd say is he feels like a guy that wouldn't improve under the sox as much as slowly atrophy from all of his college numbers until we are saying when he's brought up as a 25 year old 26th man "wow another white sox first rounder made the big leagues" lol

Eh, Virginia guys have so much unfucking to do with their swings. Steele Walker was a no for me because it was a situation of only the sox thinking he'd stay in CF and with average power he kinda needed to. Hasn't seemed like people doubt his ability to be CF. And is he really finding power this year or just consistency with it? Power is coming from more xbh not just homers. Hard at this side of the board. I would rather go a bit more of a bet on higher end traits but I think this skepticism is already kinda baked into a late first pick.

I pretty much just care about innings. His arm has so much buildup to go

His line has surged, just an awesome turnaround. Kind of a ho hum day otherwise.

I don’t know didn’t he demand some off days when he had a big run of usage?

While allowing four plus runs!!!

Mendick = lead off hitter
