  1. Are you implying that the prospect return that teams got from the Sox this year is that much better than what the Sox got years back for a bunch of salary dumps? The only player we’ll miss is Madrigal and even then Hernandez is the better player this year and next.
  2. I was in the park last night. The entire thing was ridiculous. That rule needs to be changed ASAP. It was like a 15 minute delay.
  3. Like you said you can appeal a check swing but it cannot be challenged. Why would this be any different? Dumb rule.
  4. Dumbest rule ever. An appeal play shouldn’t even be a thing anymore now that replay is instituted.
  5. How did the 20 second rule not apply here? Thought you only have 20 seconds after the play is dead to let the umps know you’re challenging the call? That’s the only thing I didn’t understand. They got the call right but how were they even allowed to still challenge?
  6. https://mobile.twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/1417280240657866759 Then we roll
  7. I remember when the preseason projections said Dunning would be as good or better than Lynn THIS season. That was fun.
  8. Best record in AL and third best record in MLB heading into the ASB. Vegas futures odds has the White Sox with the third best odds of winning the World Series. Remarkable when you consider the number of injuries to key players. Now if they can just get most of these guys healthy heading into the playoffs, this October could be very fun for White Sox fans.
  9. Why are we asking for Harold’s opinion on prospects? Wasn’t he the poster that said Mendick would outplay Madrigal?
  10. Still one of the best teams in baseball despite losing three highly productive position players to injury. White Sox fans aren’t used to this!
  11. Yea, no kidding. I bet fathom and Harold aren’t upset. I think both liked Mendick better than Madrigal anyway.
  12. My definition of juggernaut was AL version of the Dodgers. Don’t think the Sox are far from that come September when Robert and Eloy return.
  13. #1, #1, #6 second best record in AL, best run differential in AL
  14. And this is why you don’t trade the farm for an outfielder. The bullpen is a much bigger need now and into the postseason. Going to have to make a deal for one or two high leverage guys next month.
  15. I’ve been defending this kid since they drafted him. Argued over the years that he had a 2-3 WAR floor with potential for even better if he developed the least bit of power. He’s the perfect fit for this team. Not sure why so many Sox fans dislike the kid.
  16. Or fathom’s favorite Jonathan India. Madrigal with a higher OPS than all of them. Who saw that coming?
  17. It was sarcasm. I said weeks ago that the Sox were the better team this season even without Robert and Eloy. You were on the Twins bandwagon early this season as well (“don’t count them out, they’re not buried yet etc”). Time to nail that coffin shut or do we need to wait until they’re officially eliminated to bury them?
  18. Only 1/4 of the way through the season but “probably” not too early to say Minnesota’s habit of playing better than the Sox won’t continue this season...
  19. Yea, those peak A’s teams were pretty stacked
  20. The front office has essentially built a far more talented moneyball era A’s and I LOVE it.
  21. Bryant doesn’t hit in the postseason. I’d rather take my chances with the returns of Robert and Eloy.
  22. And the 2016 Cubs that everyone gushed about had a +252.
