It’s so fun every time Billy gets on base especially when it’s ahead of TA, just seems like an automatic run.

I think they were depending on scrubs like Vaughn

Also guys the blackout game was 13 years ago. I don’t think they are over doing it. Let people have fun

And I think partials are next so yeah. But I’m sure they hold some back each time

That was hilarious haha

That was a breath of fresh Craig

the shirts are actually nice, the hats are that perfect kind of winning hat ugly

I keep thinking about all those hypotheticals during the rebuild of "would you rather be the braves winning the division every year or win WS once and be out 5 years" and everyone being like "of course the braves" Love this board forever for always being entertaining, but it's been a lot nicer with the sox good and just speaking to non-diehards who are just like "sure is a fun team"! Yeah! It is, winning baseball rules. And it can make you miserable, but it rules.

Woo HOOO Go out and have a night boys...in.....cleveland...oh Probably for the best.

well, not that there was any real threat, but I would feel good that an ownership group with Hobson would not move the sox.

interesting pitcher group.

I barely realized sunday ended much of our minor league seasons since none are in the playoffs. DSL is still playing. Anyway, here are my awards for best minor league years. I'm including guys that may have been called up to majors and succeeded as a factor in this, because that's what the minors are for. I'm not including rehabbing major league players though, but Yas was probably our best catcher. What a nice guy. My All Star Team For Minor Leagues - Name / Level / Age : Notes C - Carlos Perez / AA / 25 : Slashed . .264/.313/.418 in birmingham, finding his best power to date. He has always made great contact with just a 7% strikeout rate. TLR raved about his defense in ST, and I honestly have no idea why Nate Nolan is in AAA over him, but he plays a lot in Birmingham. Other Considerations: Xavier Fernandez, Adam Hackenberg 1B - Gavin Sheets / AAAMLB / 25: We know about gavin sheets. Other Considerations: Harvin Mendoza - just not enough power 2B - Yolbert Sanchez / A+ AA / 24: I struggled with this one since at his age he should have done this, but considering how poorly he hit for power in Cuba and his start to the white sox, his . 343 .369 .469 mark in Birmingham makes him seem like he's still on the way up Other Considerations: Lenyn Sosa SS - TIE Jose Rodriguez and Romy Gonzales : I'm not choosing here. Romy went for 20/20 in the tough power environment of Bham, crushed Charlotte, and is now in the Majors. He's played 5 positions this year. Jose rodriguez as a 20 year old went across 3 leagues, with steady power and unbelievable consistency. Other considerations: Colson Montgomery - good approach to start young career 3b - Jake Burger / AAA MLB / 25: we all know jake burger Other Considerations: Bryan Ramos OF (3) Luis Mieses /A+ A A+ / 21: After an awful start, Mieses went down to A and dominated, and since coming up has been a doubles machine. Finished year with a respectable .270 / .312 /.463 across both levels Yoelque Cespedes / A+ AA / 23: after a hot start in BHam his power slowed. He probably could be in AAA to start the year. I'm not really sold by the package, but boy is our outfield bad. Micker Adolfo / AA AAA / 25: Monster power this year, monster Ks. But I will give him credit, he cut down Ks a bit in AAA. But 24 Home Runs across two levels, and they didn't start until May. SP: Norge Vera - please enjoy the tax money Emilio Vargas / AA / 24: is he a prospect? I unno. Does he deserve to be on here after K'ing 99 in 83 IP, with a 2.9 ERA and our pitching being bad? Yes Kade McClure / AA AAA / 25: He was not very good in AAA, but again, we have no pitching. He k'd 77 in 63 ip in Bham, and he's tall. I think he can be a RP. Burke was good, but it was ACL RP: Theo Denlinger K'd 26 in 14 IP Alec Hansen is intriguing to me again, he came on real strong at the end, and found control and was k'ing people left and right Gil Luna struck out 14/9 and finally gave up an ER a few nights ago. Highlights: Infielders Lowlights: Pitching, pitching, pitching

There were games today and some fine stuff but yeah pretty boring. Good job burke

Was a fun game. I hope we give all of the regulars some chance to play together soon. Feels like Cesar starting to break out of it

So neither Thompson or Dalquist gave up a run in their starts last two nights, that's nice. colson slash now .287/.396/.378 ...he went to the moncada school of offensive production K rate under 20% now. Simas gave up an ER, but still an excellent start. His first ER was on a inside the park homer the outfield misplayed this is all I got for stuff. He's been great.

I feel like at this point he'll never be highly rated, but I think he has as good a chance as any of the infielders in the top 50-150 of getting to big leagues and being a starter at this point.

I like Romy a lot. Let him work on 2b all winter, let him compete when he comes back. His K rate will be what makes or breaks him. Versatile, fast, power. He's got a lot of what you need, just didn't have pedigree.

Good Thompson game this far.

Not a bad start from Dalquist, and snuck his ERA under 5 finally for season

This is cool. Go Romy

Colson was 2-4 with a 2B and no Ks last night. Again, game power didn’t translate but his approach is much more advanced than I expected

ugh, guy should have been in bham all year. Here's hoping he is legit.

Thats 6 Home runs for Quezada in DSL. That's real power in that league. .265 .362 .504 .867 That is really, really good. He is tied for fourth in the league with 11 other guys, but just hunting and pecking I think at 17 he's the only sub 18 guy who did it. And a Norge Vera update: 4 IP 6 ks 1 BB no runs

I'm pretty sure I've spent enough money at the team shop this year for the sox to afford seager.
