What’s the record since Madrigal has been there? The guy just wins. He reminds me of Nellie fox.

Yes it's going to be a different kind of year, but there will still be Walker, Basabe, Gonzalez, and Sheets/Rutherford, and then the kanny group of Bush/Sosa. Beyond that, we'll have the new blood of Thompson/Drew, Beard, Gladney, the PR kids, though likely all in short season ball. And perhaps we have that Cuban signee in J2. Probably a bottom 3rd system at that point, however, the majors will be fun again.

Obviously Robert is a human and should be able to eat whatever he wants, but this is more about how there have been articles players struggles to get either familiar or good food while playing in rural carolinas or alabama. Like, you have so much riding on these guys, why not ask your affiliates if you could fund a caterer for the clubhouse for home games?

At soxfest I asked getz why they can't just pay for catering for the minors and he said it was part of the minor league experience but they were looking into it (i.e. they were not looking into it)

It looks like a lot of breadsticks and perhaps those chicken things where they smother them in cheese.

I don't know if anyone else is reading this, but the piece on k-vests made me want to buy one for madrigal right away.

2019 MLB Draft and Signing Tracker
He has the leverage of other teams being able to select him offering over slot, and yes, refusing to sign. While that may not pay off individually for Vaughn, he could go play indy ball for a year, and the sox would have lost a top 3 pick and it's amount for their draft pool. So it would be a pain to the sox. And screwing over agents and players isn't wise in the long run. If what you are saying is true, why would any college juniors make anywhere near slot?

And that's a Eloy Jimenez Coming Out Party White Sox Winner
But, like, were people advocating to get Harper and trade Anderson? I think everyone wanted to supplement this roster with a big bat, and a .350 obp in a down year was why harpers floor was so attractive. The reason signing FAs was nice was because we weren't losing anything but money!

Don't play games with it, sox probably negotiated with this before pick was made, they'll pay what was agreed to. Vaughn had leverage pre-draft. Sox aren't going to dick around.

Sure but I don't know why it's a choice, but I'd take Harper in RF right now.

2018-2019 Official NBA thread
this is just so stupid. Portland/Denver had a 4 OT game in a 7 game series. Philly/Toronto had the entire series won on a last second shot that hit the rim 4 times. SAS/Denver game 7 went down to the last minute. The 6 game eastern finals had 2/3 of its games with 10 points and was a big upset. Last years Rockets/Warriors. It's just idiotic, but you'll be able to maintain your argument for eternity by selective application of your terrible basketball memory.

Trade Idea: Andrew Cashner
No I’m of the opinion that watching three out of five non major league pitchers sucks and cashner would not compromise anything to acquire.
