I dunno about that. I'd be perfectly happy with a 2021 debut. He'd but what, 22?

thank god for that, it led you to admin for soxtalk.

do HS prep guys ever "reclassify" like with top basketball recruits and go to prep school?

he followed up with, "so the ceiling is the floor".

That's Jose Abreu's agent.

There is some right handed Bryce Harper in Vaughn's swing. The power he generates with his load mechanism looks incredible.

ray ray is always on 11, which rarely works well for message board posting careers.

he still thinks most baseball fans are meatheads or something. say something substantive.

love this kid's swing. that said no idea if he's going to pan out. hopefully he does. certainly puts Jose on notice that his future is at DH or with another club. seems like this kid will basically be in AA next year and if everything goes well be pushing for a opening day spot in 2021.

like robinson cano?

live look at the White Sox draft room with another top 3 pick:

Wieters famously "broke Pecota". https://www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article/8573/you-could-look-it-up-matt-wieters/

So he's Jeff Bagwell?

Ugh. Sox need to stop reaching for "need" with college bats.

Latin catching prospect with a good arm and a quick powerful swing? I like that.

College hasn't worked so well lately, go with a high upside HS guy. Even if his timeline is 2024+ you can trade him for help sooner.

Fun is back on the South Side. Two AL players of the month already, a near .500 record and beating down the Royals and Tribe. Not bad.

Seems well deserved. Not sure who could top those two starts. He's got what, 4 starts left before the ASG? Be nice to get 10 wins before then. He's now 4th in MLB in fWAR for pitchers at 2.5. 2nd in the AL behind Boyd (2.7) from the Tigers who is having a helluva year himself.

No, 6.

Tilson and Cordell are useful players and CF is covered with Leury, who is now at .9fWAR and playing a nice CF. Jay should be put out to pasture. Just cut him. I'd rather have Cordell.

Yup that's perfect. No reason to call him up before then.

Let him spend all of August and September in AAA, that should be good for about 150-200 PA down there. Next year they can do the "maybe he can make the club out of spring" talk and then bring him up once he's outside of super 2, if that's a concern for them.

Longerhans implied that the O's are more likely to pass on him than other clubs.

Thanks. Seems like if that doesn't happen Sox will try and underslot themselves and grab a prep arm in the 2nd. Just looking at Fangraphs' latest mock right now. Wouldn't be thrilled with another college corner bat but looks like that may be the pick.

So what's the best case? Thanks I'll take your answers off the air.
