Chicago White Sox 2nd Round Picks in the MLB June Amateu...Trayce Thompson/Ryan Sweeney Jeff Weaver and Bob Wickman the only successful second round picks...ofc not with the Sox, for the most part

They've never been competitive under Getz...until now. Now how much he was for or against selling off pieces in 2022-23, we have no idea. Or if those could even be termed as competitive teams...ofc he wasn't officially the GM yet either.

Helping out Ishbia to hit the ground running...

Will soon find out. In a much tougher league this season. Trade won't provide definitive results for at least 4-5 seasons. Right when Getz is trying to retain his position with Ishbia.

White Sox career fWAR from 2nd and 3rd round picks has to be somewhere between 26th through 30th in mlb. Even international has had a higher rate of return...at least until the pools were capped.

Lowe already at 3.0 bWAR heading for 4.75-5.0 will also be an ufa in 2027

There was a report in late June that the Pirates were open to moving their CBR-A selection as well as players in their minor league system. They’ve now done both in one deal. Gonzalez debuted this season with the White Sox. He provided near league-average production while playing mostly first base, but was bumped off the roster when Munetaka Murakami returned Friday. Eisert has been a regular in Chicago’s bullpen since last season. He’s scuffled to a 5.93 ERA in 2026. mlbtraderumors.com

Jared Triolo has been bad at SS for Pitt filling in for Griffin and as a utility guy SUMMARY 2026 Career WAR 0.4 6.1 AB 181 1087 H 42 256 HR 1 20 BA .232

Unlikely...

Setting up Ishbia well...

Until Griffin returns. Then he would be competing with Nick Gonzalez at second base.

#34 pick historically Total Picks 61 Major Leaguers 34 Active Players 9 Signed Picks 58 Unsigned Picks 3 College Picks 25 High School Picks 36 Bonus Records 33 Top Bonus Sean Manaea ($ 3,550,000) Current Slot Value $ 2,830,000

Can't sell...but really nothing to buy with either, other than cash/rare JR bucks sellout tonight helps raise those revenue though lol

bWAR? Or updated in game fWAR? fangraphs has him tied for fifth in mlb at 2.5, just ahead of Mike Trout for CFers

ludicrous strike 3 against Murakami 4 k's will take him until August probably maybe Hr derby will have a positive impact on a hitter for once

uh oh 7-2 Tigers over Phillies long term, best for Sox that Detroit doesn't get two Top 100 prospects from LAD

That was quick. Can't ask for much more from Burke.

Cleveland 3-1 over Marlins Top 6 in Miami maybe they get the mysterious Norwegian football team illness...

Shades of 2012 Where have you gone, Addison Reed?

Elko Elko Elko!!! lol

.167 risp in July

They want Gonzalez to play SS while Griffin is out? This should be interesting, to say the least. How much did they originally spend on that 15 pick?

for?
