Dick Allen

I don't understand how anyone can conclude this guy won't hit any home runs. Look at little guys from the past. They usually start out hitting few, but figure something out. Making all that contact, in today's game, HRs will come. Besides, Ichiro rarely hit homers, and I think everyone would take him in his prime. His stature is what holds him back, but there are plenty of tiny guys who have flurished. Not just Altuve and Pedroia. Adam Eaton is little. He is pretty good. Kirby Puckett was 5'8" and had 4 homers his first 1300 MLB plate appearances. Then he hit 31. I don't think he will be a 30 HR hitter, but he seems like he is the best hitter in the draft. I think his size is causing people to out think themselves on the obvious pick if he is still there.

I get that, but still, his BS is less than 90 miles away. You would think they would be on to it. There are plenty of republicans that know Donald Trump is full of it. It was basically Make Gary Great Again. Everyone lost but him. Full of lies and unfulfilled promises and boasts. And to this day, he calls it a great deal.

What is interesting to me is how Indiana totally forgot how Trump fucked Gary.

I think at least a couple of them will be there. Fry and Bummer would pretty much have to get hurt not to IMO>

It's easy to sign free agents if you are willing to pay them more than anyone else. KW , RH seem to think they have some sort of power of persuasion when it comes to signing players. Remember just a few months ago how upset KW was at not getting a shot at Otani for $300k, and how the White Sox supposedly made an offer for Machado because they thought spending a year with the team gave them some sort of advantage money couldn't wipe right out. They have without question, done some things recently they haven't done either ever or for a very long time. But like the Bulls, I believe they will sign the elite free agents when it happens. There is no reason to think they are coming to 35th and the Ryan.

There will be milions there. More people than you ever knew existed won't be able to get into the rally.

What is it about Omar's managing that sets him apart? Can it be the fact he can win games with a relatively stacked roster? I think in the grand scheme of things White Sox style, Joe McEwing is way ahead of Omar as the next White Sox manager, but they will stick with Ricky until they can't.

And if the White Sox call up Eloy and he struggles, some of the same people who are dying to see him will be crying about the Sox always rushing guys. There is no need.

.326/.378/.526 Those were Gordon Beckham's splits in AA and AAA in 196 PA in 2009 as an older player than Eloy. People still complain he was rushed. There is no reason to rush Eloy.

How the mighty have fallen. The Bulls are holding a draft lottery party next Tuesday.

Eventually, they will get to the point where they have to add veterans through trade or free agency to put them over the top. That's where I have issue. If you don't think RH or JR or KW or all three had a clue how to supplement their roster to win before, I don't know why you would think they would now. They were at point C or D trying to get to E. Now they are at point A. To me, all it does is buys them time, eventually they will have to get to point C or D again, and they have shown in the past that is where they pretty much hit a wall.

It's possible, but far from probable. If you're Machado and the White Sox and Yankees or Dodgers offer similar money, where are you going? JR is going to have to ARod or Cano it.

No. Besides 100 losses now might not get you a top 4 or 5 pick

I would like to think so but 4-23 vs. Non KC makes me wonder. I get the rebuild. But cheering for losses and draft position, will make it never ending. I wonder what the biggest 2 year win jump In MLB history is. If you are counting on 2020 to be the year the Sox dominate, they better kick it in gear soon and become just bad or you may be relying on a scale of win improvement that has never happened before.

If pitching well now is so important, why shouldn't fans be freaked out by Gio and Fulmer? All of these guys have enough stuff to be really good, but command and control seem to be an issue with all. It obviously isn't that uncommon or guys that throw 100 would never be available for next to nothing. Coop needs to fix them, or at least one of them. I think throwing strikes is probably going to be an issue with the other big name prospects as well, when it' their time.

I watched Gonzo yesterday and they were evaluating the Q/Eloy swap. He basically said the Sox win the trade if Eloy can stay on the field. Eloy, Moncada, Robert...all seem to get dinged up a lot. Usually guys get hurt more often as they age. Hopefully, these are just some flukes. Their heath is key to the rebuild.

Trump told reporters today that everyone thinks he should get a Nobel Peace Prize.

So write anything negative about Trump, have your media credentials taken away. 'Merica. Donald J. Trump ✔@realDonaldTrump The Fake News is working overtime. Just reported that, despite the tremendous success we are having with the economy & all things else, 91% of the Network News about me is negative (Fake). Why do we work so hard in working with the media when it is corrupt? Take away credentials?

The amount of doctors on this site is amazing.

Were 2 of those the ones that Obama couldn't get released even though they were captured after Trump took over.

Gio isn’t the jackass, but his motion looks a lot like Nook LaLoosh in Bull Durham

Javier Baez has a .932 OPS since April 11th with no walks.

Flu Darvish

Meseroco had 1 good year 4 years ago and got paid. Junk for junk deal.

Elon Musk should have bought naming rights for the rebuild years. Boring Park seems appropriate.
