Well the average coach has a 50% win rate...

I mean it is almost certain that the Sox have SOME more signings to announce. Typically they formally sign around half a dozen guys on signing day who are in the 200+k ish range. With the weird information flow and blatant rules violations that already happen down there, its hard to get information on signings ahead of time in a good year. When you factor in covid and some of the extra political problems happening in some of these countries, I can imagine information is at a premium right now. The other side of the coin is, if they DON'T announce another chunk of signings in a month, it is a really good sign that they already have an in with someone like Prieto or another defector that hasn't been announced yet.

The weather lapses on twitter are amazing.

IN MID DECEMBER!!!

Wasn't there a 25 man deal he tried to get done with maybe Texas, like 16 for 9 players or something? There were stories about the things that didn't happen which were also a big part of the story

The Bears are a damned dumpster fire. If anyone in Chicago should see it, they should look at the change in the Bulls from top to bottom and realize that is what they needc to do.

Also why are they only signing him because he is a Tatis?

Ah, I couldn't figure out if they adjusted the birthdates as well. Thanks!

Speaking of international signings, was this supposed to be the year for the youngest Tatis, or is that next year? I am kind of lost with the changes in the signings dates.

Yes, because we should count on Dad for objective scouting advice.

He's not doing anything, anyway.

No, Madrigal needs to develop the tool of health.

No, I fully expected you to put this in the worst possible light and ignore the actual superstar we got out of the international market.

The rebuild only happened in 2019? News to me.

The center fielder we signed on the international market seems to argue that we found something to do with their money.

Our center fielder is a bit confused.

Wow, he fell off the face of the earth. I mean I don't know if his old ceiling is still in there, but it's worth a shot on a MiLB deal.

Some times the first year is an adjustment, especially after the kind of layoff he just had. I am hoping that this year things settle down a bit and he can show some things.

Getting the next Arod would also be hugely valuable.

Does the international signing period still happen with a lock out?

The more I read and see about Vera, he really feels like by far the top ceiling in this organization, and he seems to be already pretty high of a floor. We will see if that changes once he gets challenged stateside, but the stuff just seems ace level.
