Lot of desire for Trea Turner, where there is smoke there is probably fire.

?

True but also it's a collection of our hottest hitters lol.

Freddy Garcia, Jim Thome. It happens. Can't go big every day.

don't give up, you'll want to be a part of the early turner investors when it cashes in.

lol I've whispered Trae Turner into existence. go big or go home.

*nods head in agreement at realistic addition of Escobar* (secretly keeps researching trae turner stats)

It has been interesting seeing prep players being the late risers this year

?

Uhhh it’s a real victory genius

AE IOU

Shutting out the rays with your worst pitcher and 6 bench players lmao what a trash ass team fuck those nerds

H.A.F.

Not sure we can trade it still. Can we?

Wish I could go this week. Have fun to whomever goes, what a beautiful night.

I'd hope so considering how many "set backs" they've had.

made me almost tear up: http://dph.illinois.gov/news/public-health-officials-announce-165-new-cases-coronavirus-disease Only 165 cases (25k samples). 7 day average now just 0.8%. IDPH moving to weekly press releases (daily data on dash).

I obviously have zero clue what was actually happening but with the cut-off in interactions between staff I just figured players may have been bored and really over compensated in lifting this offseason. I did think it was interesting that instead of march being UCL season, it seemed surprisingly healthy maybe from lack of use, but it's caught up since then (anecdotally it's felt that way).

Excellent news, great work by them.

Excellent stuff and I mostly agree. For as long as Birmingham held our "where hitters go to die" mantra, Kanny has really been brutal for a few years and is also one of the hardest pitcher parks, and moreso now that a lot of our minors players of note are younger. Romy Gonzalez was not good in Kanny, Burger wasn't very good in Kanny. I thought robert wasn't that good in Kanny but he was fine, he was just incredible everywhere else in 2019. For weaver, his reported athleticism and speed should make defensive reports a non-concern until we see him. Where I disagree is mainly we just haven't had enough Krogman due to his injury. If he keeps this up a few more weeks. I'm just not putting as much worry into k-rate this year, except for the positives honestly. With Rodriguez, we keep hearing the negative of his aggressive approach and questions over his hit tool, but he hasn't shown it in games yet. He looks the part and keeps playing the part.

Was one of the youngest guys we went after. Probably a lesson there. Hes had interesting progression, 2019 he was walking like nuts. But without enough power who knows. We’ll see if he continues and how Sox handle him next year if he moves up.
