Broken freakin record. People are done hearing it because it's the stupidest freaking argument out there. You're complaining about something that doesn't hurt the organization at all. And you've been doing it for months.

I don't think he breaks camp with the big league team either but I'd be pretty surprised if he doesn't see some major league time in 2018 even if it's in August or September.

QUOTE (Two-Gun Pete @ Aug 7, 2017 -> 12:18 AM) ...and both are better, smarter, and more versatile players than Anderson, full stop. Thank God we gave Anderson a contract extension after one lucky season. Do you have any posts in the last few months besides whining about the very little money that we're paying Anderson?

Why do we think Tim is struggling with self confidence? Anywho, I don't think sending him down the minors is the right thing to do.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Aug 5, 2017 -> 10:24 PM) Well it's basically a done deal - yall will get your wish. But i don't have to like it - particularly the sloppy play in achieving the #1 pick. You're something. Do you miss your heroes?

Hey guys, Hansen is 2-4.

Kopech was awesome when he was walking everyone. Now he's f***in terrifying.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Aug 5, 2017 -> 11:55 AM) I don't think Engel ever figures it out offensively and I would definitely play Luery over him in CF next year. And I honestly think Willy, Delmonico, & Cordell all deserve playing time over him in LF as well. Best case scenario IMO is Engel hits enough to be a solid 4th OF. I agree. That said, the point that his defense could help out our young pitchers is definitely a fair one.

I like Kailah but she is terrible at drafting.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Aug 5, 2017 -> 11:22 AM) Here's the problem. I fully expect Lopez & Giolito to be in the rotation to start next year along with Rodon. At some point, Kopech will force his way into rotation as well. Assumes all goes well (unlikely I know), that basically leaves one spot for Adams, Stephens, or Guerrero for 2018/2019 before Hansen & Dunning start pushing for spots. I think Adams will end up being a quality #4 starter, but it might not be with us. He'll need to grab any opportunity presented and run with it or else some of the higher ceiling guys will take his spot. Rodon might be trade bait at some point too. Obviously I don't know if that will happen but that could open up a rotation spot as well.

I think all those ETA's are fair, Lillian. That said I think Burger is here before 2020. I really believe that dude is going to fly through the system. No clue if he's going to be a successful major leaguer or not but he's going to destroy the minors imo.

Nicky should find plenty of at bats whether it's in left or dh'ing.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 4, 2017 -> 06:19 PM) Yes and no. Players can go from high-A to the MLB in about half a season, so in that regard I would agree completely. On the other hand, the difference between high-A and AA seems to be the biggest jump of any within the minors, so you really begin to weed people out. I agree with all this. It really just depends on the player.

QUOTE (BamaDoc @ Aug 4, 2017 -> 01:07 PM) Our low levels are full of prospects. Upper levels there a smattering of prospects but a lot of filler. Gonna take awhile, longer than I had hoped. The upper levels have a ton of pitching prospects, position prospects not so much.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 4, 2017 -> 11:23 AM) Micker Adolfo hit a couple of dingers last night too. Amongst Sallie league leaders, he is 3rd in homers, tied for 3rd in 2b's, 5th in RBI, 11th in hits, 18th in SLG, 20th in OPS. Burger, Rutherford, Adolfo were taking turns having monster days while the site blew up. That Kanny offense is absurd.

Luis Robert is good too. That's all that needs to be said I think.

What is this? Where am I?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 1, 2017 -> 07:27 AM) I gotta say Matt Foster has put up video game numbers in his early career so far. Got some sleep this time Row? Haha indeed. Hopefully today will be a little better of a day for me.

I also don't think they're moving Rutherford away from CF until they absolutely have to.

Kopech done. 8 k's and 0 walks. Awesome.

Ya what Fathom said ha.

Kopech getting hit around a bit in the 5th. Still no walks though so that's good.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 31, 2017 -> 07:51 PM) You've had an incredibly s***ty day posting on different threads. Good lord I need to go to bed.

Only 82 pitches through 7 for Dane. EDIT: Nevermind. 100 through 7 so I'm guessing he's done. What a freakin game.

Dunning finally gave up a couple hits and a run but 10 k's and 0 walks through 5.
