Typically when the teams start doing the pressers at the ballpark is when this stuff comes out.

He has Singer over Madrigal. That would really not be the guy I would like to see them go with. I guess at that point you'd have to trust the Sox ability to ID pitching.

With the guy being new to our system this year, I am guessing silence is due to this is the first time most people are seeing him. What I see so far is a guy who seems very fundamentally sounds, without a real carrying tool that stands out. He's a guy who you can plug it and he won't hurt you, but if he was a starter, you'd be looking for an upgrade.

NO WHERE near that level of power.

This. And it is a LONG tradition of doing so, without any consequences.

You are the real champion of Soxtalk.

It will be progress when you respond to a post without hatred towards ownership.

As does the Delmonico, Avi, and Cordell injuries.

In the short term? Probably not.

LMAO, come on man.

What was the optimism on Covey at any point last year? Heck people were wanted to cut him and send him back to Oakland for nothing.

Eh, for me it is the opposite. I like knowing that they are identifying guys like Vlad and He Who Shall Not be Named in the San Diego system. I like knowing that they are able to ID talent, even if they aren't able to sign them.

And we didn't see Covey throwing 96 last year either.

In the same thread where people are talking about Dylan Covey as an anchor in the rotation going forward, they are pronouncing Giolito and Fulmer dead. Don't get so married to the present.

Again, there aren't really enough starting level catchers to cover MLB, let alone once you start taking players out of a teams depth chart. Catcher is probably the hardest position to fill in MLB. Knocking out a teams starting catcher usually is a tough blow to overcome, but it becomes really awful when both #1 and #3, and maybe #4 or #5 are also out.
