The difference being Yolmer is at his ceiling. Anderson is not.

Regardless, that isn't equal to 5.

He has been in the majors for less than 2 full seasons.

I'll take it.

Wait, you've been commenting on this but have no idea what is happening in NK? Donald is that you?

I just wish Ron or greg had started this thread.

No, link?

Love seeing guys outside of our top level having these kind of nights.

Excellent to hear.

Yikes.

When you consider how far White Sox attendance is down this year, it is pretty damned amazing that Jose Abreu is a leading vote getter at any stage of the all star balloting.

Serious answer: No.

Anything that gets the US away from China's backdoor is good for China.

Most guys taken in the draft never make it. High School pitchers have a lot of the same history. But if your scouts tell you that this Michael Kopech kid might be something, you take him.

It is a situation where you have to trust your scouts. You also can't shy away from talent just because other teams have failed. If a guy is your BPA, take him.

Hopefully people watching Lucas Giolito now realize that Kopech with his lack of control is going to go through the same types of growing pains when he gets here,

It is only oppression if you don't stick to the talking points.

This is China getting the US to surrender their toe hold in the peninsula to them. This is also Trump falling for the same garbage that Clinton fell for twenty years ago. Trump will get his press conference, Kim will get his bribes, meanwhile the US will start to pull out of SK because they don't need "protection" anymore. All of the while, NK will be working on their next nuclear facility somewhere else away from prying eyes.

The problem is with lower competition it can be hard to tell if he has figured out the problem, or superior stuff against flawed kids is what is doing it. If he is able to go 5 innings on a regular basis, I want him here. If he can't, he leaves the team no choice but to send him down.

And we move anyone who is worth anything to the US quicker than most other franchises.

If the Sox can pull a potential star catcher out of the of the draft, that is a huge add for a franchise. Truly good catchers are hard to find. A franchise type catcher puts an organization ahead of most others just because of positional rarity.

This deserves a +1.
