  1. Guess this might come into play with Gregorious. KW/TLR/Hahn just love their NL vets.
  2. Can’t afford 4-3 this week with the much more challenging upcoming schedule. With Guardians and Twins both ahead in the standings, odds are one of those two will have more fortuitous matchups on a daily basis.
  3. Wil Myers sounds perfect for next year. Extremely Diminished power from RH side. Piss Poor defense. Terrible in CF. Was a big name a decade or so ago. Will point to decent numbers in 2019 and 2021. Not THAT old by Sox standards.
  4. And I can hardly believe KW agrees with the Menechino loyalty program, either. Exact opposite of how the best Sox teams in last 25 years or so were constructed.
  5. And you expect the White Sox to take on how much additional salary when they will already be maxxed out signing Abreu? Where are you going to cut to fit that money in? Hendriks and/or Graveman? Who else?
  6. The Padres have a bonus pool of $10,088,900, 11th-highest in the Majors. That should help as they try to lure Lesko away from Vanderbilt University and Snelling away from LSU. Though the Saturday night lights of Death Valley are not in play for Snelling, he has longstanding ties to Tigers baseball coach Jay Johnson, who got to know Snelling and his family while serving as the University of Nevada baseball coach from 2014-15. Dylan Lesko, 18, signed for $3.9 million, was among the top Draft prospects this year before dropping because he underwent Tommy John surgery in April. With the best changeup in the Draft class, per MLB Pipeline, and a fastball that already touches 97 mph, he has a strong foundation for development after his rehab. Snelling, 18, signed for $3 million, was a Division I prospect as a football linebacker and he pondered playing both sports in college before committing to LSU as a baseball player only. He, too, boasts a 97 mph fastball and he has plenty of room to grow after concentrating on baseball development full time. Adam Mazur, 21, signed for $1.25 million, is a late bloomer. He didn’t pitch at all until his junior year at Woodbury High School in Minnesota. He started his college career at South Dakota State University, which didn’t have a pitching coach on staff for part of his time there. With a five-pitch mix, Mazur blossomed in the Cape Cod League over the summer of 2021, before he transferred to Iowa and became the Big Ten pitcher of the year in ’22. https://www.mlb.com/news/robby-snelling-adam-mazur-round-out-padres-picks-on-day-1-of-2022-mlb-draft

  8. Well, Drury has lost two homers over the fence and another controversial replay reversal in less than a week…called out at home in what became a 1-0 loss the night before that must have required 12-15 different angles. And Josh Hader blew a 4-1 lead and could easily have replicated his six run/three homer disaster against that same Giants team a month ago in SF. Next twenty games after today @ Washington, @Miami, Washington, CLE (2), KC, at SF

  10. Yeah. Sosa deserves an extended look. Just dont think they have the guts to bench Leury Harrison Moncada but who knows...
  11. The problem is do you really pull Giolito or Lynn for him? VV Foster Ruiz Banks/Sousa could all go. But they must want him to start in regular rotation and maybe returns to give Kopech another breather.
  12. Bautista is awesome. Another comeback for Balt against Jays. Only two GB. Nice for that city to have pennant race beisbol. Scary matchup for Sox in upcoming days.
  13. Guess McGuire jokes about sprained body parts are out since he's no longer on the team...
  14. Might need to adjust Sosa war. Almost had three hits including the homer.
  15. Tatis JR. 2/2 with a double and triple for San Antonio...first hit in any game in 10 1/2 months.
  16. If Bellinger Gallo Muncy and Taylor get going this is Murderers Row in LA. 3-1
  17. Except the Tigers have the worst offense in MLB over the last fifty years and 2/3rds of their pitchers have been hurt at different times.
  18. 1-1. Urshela triple swinging bunt by Celestino.
  19. 1~0 Dodgers. So tough two outs RISP.
  20. New cognitive dissonance approach keeping Sox alive at least until the end of next week.
  21. If the Guardians were much better than 6-7 against Detroit they would be running away with the Central.
  22. Or win the first game of a series.
