I’m so confused by this AZL schedule.

I just want to set this standard. The only think worth remembering for this game is they beat cleveland.

hmm. He sounds like me. JK I thought twins would be worse but holy smokes I definitely thought they would be 1st or 2nd in division. Dumb bet though, Cleveland can look like a trash team and still squeak out 88-90 wins. Twins can look great and apparently have a 65 win season. Sox are not acting like the sox at all, in a great, great way.

High school players don't take longer to become trade chips, see Matt Liberatore, Jarred Kelenic, both traded a year after selection in high profile deals. Teams shedding major league talent are trying to get the best players and scouts are quite capable of giving opinions on whether success is due to competition or age, they do it every draft.

funny thing about this is that this team has finally gotten so consistently good that we just had a .500 stretch and it felt like we were the worst team in baseball.

What a series win. A week or so ago I said sox should raid the power hitters of the twins (less attractive now with how callups shook out, but at time made sense) and I was told Wait, the sox are about to play 6 games vs the twins, they could get reasonably into it. They did not. Because they are f'ing terrible. Still would take whoa nelly if we have lotsa money. Lord knows I've been spending it on this team.

? no cycle

Amazing how he has played.

Exactly. Yeah, sorry but it’s true I don’t think if our playoff team is the Charlotte knights roster we can win a World Series but this is just about surviving.

Not gonna lie I’d rather Carlos Perez be up than Seby but good for him.

But he could be injured by playing, and the point of baseball is to prevent any player having an injury.

Sox should just iL Abreu, Anderson, Moncada the minute any backup player has a hit in a game and hold them there forever.

I think he’s a second baseman like Vaughn is a third baseman like yermin is a catcher

Life coach

I love Leury. Dude is never as bad, or as good, as he seems. Incredible talent.

Oh my god Leury

I just want KB. He’s a perfect fit.

This is overly dramatic but it feels like the movie the natural in a way. I completely forgot what his prospect reports really even were, he’s just gone for 3 years after playing in a league we see nothing from, then he’s in bigs. It’s a fun experience.

Hey the white sox are playing

Rebuilding teams won’t trade major league players for young prospects? What? What did the Padres just trade for Yu Darvish? Gladney was a 16th round pick. If we traded him for a major league player two years later that would be incredible and show the value of younger prospects with control and upside.

In other words, if Sox had our starters struggling offensively but not injured, I imagine Eaton may be safe pending trade upgrade. But when they are all out via injury and he’s hobbling and unproductive it’s not worth having a guy that needs to sit every 3 games.

Same, but I think a big part of this is Sox not having room for a guy working through chain link injuries. Brian Goodwin had health, which clearly is now the premium.

BA had Wicks and Pacheco which would be amazing.

Lopez has half a season to catch up to Musgrove, we are holding out hope.

Just because some of us are up talking ball… Coco Crisp made a catch like that right in front of me and it was incredible to see in oerson. Awesome game, Sox we’re up 8-0, gave up lead to be down two, then tied it before Valentin walked it off.
