They’re getting along better. Steve rarely on the road and Schriffen probably picks up the tabs. Foodies. Calling him by his first name is progress. Noticed he still loses track of outs sometimes…but só do the players.

Meidroth and Antonacci pushing each other…internal competition/depth is a good thing.

Schiffren definitely has a better sense of where players stand now…especially struggling guys like Acuna and Quero. Instead of just blindly cheerleading for his favorites.

Just think about those position player FA’s signing by May 1st due to QO’s…75-80% of them struggled offensively over the following months. Kyle’s young, but you just never know. Guess his body/legs will tell him the answer.

They don’t need to force Teel up too quickly as long as they’re playing well without him or just to face the Cubs…

Wilson betemit…Ryan Sweeney

Quero can now be blamed on Hahn, lol Or Driveline/personal hitting coach and body changes

Now just have to deal with AB Acuna Quero…

See starting pitching depth SSmith injured McDougal injured Hagen control…can’t go past 3-4 innings Oppor ??? Schultz will eventually be limited by pitch counts/ip Plus all the tjs That said they just can’t take Flora in the draft. Second round, sure. Don’t force the whole Landon Thome thing, although Contreras’ son would be fun, if just 50% for sentimental reasons in Rd 3.

To stay at SS or move to where? He definitely has one of the prettiest swings.

Betting line really moving hard to Royals...classic trap ??

Smith is not even close to ready....

Chicago White Sox: The White Sox? You mean the team that’s lost 100-plus games three years in a row? That’s exactly right. The South Siders are on the rise, and even if they’re unable to continue hovering around .500 all summer long, they’re immensely more watchable than the dysfunctional teams of the past few years. A young hitting core headlined by Munetaka Murakami, Miguel Vargas, Colson Montgomery and Chase Meidroth looks to be the foundation of the next White Sox playoff team. SISports IllustratedSports Illustrated, SI.com provides sports news, expert analysis, highlights, stats and scores for the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college football, soccer, fantasy, gambling and more3rd mlb tier of watchability SIMLB Standings: Don't Look Now but the White Sox Are Playi...After losing a combined 326 games over the past three seasons, there is life on Chicago's South Side.

No on dealing Antonacci. Scouts are higher on him than Meidroth at second base for future Sox teams. Billy Carlson with a 600ish ops is a currently depressed asset. Have to wait and see on him. Jacob Gonzalez numbers are meaningless unless repeated at the mlb level for over 100 at bats to start out with. Someone'sc willing to give you a veteran experienced 4/5 starter to last the remainder of the season, go for it...needs to be a something above Fedde and Kay level though. No easy task. Might require a package of 2-3 "suspects" bundled together.

Not looking good right now...that's for sure. Way too many injuries/non-performance issues outside of G.Henderson.

JJ Bleday sporting a 1.088 ops with the Reds but it's only around 50 at bats so far. A number of people wanted him when he became available....

60-75% is what it would take in reality if he still has a 900+ ops at midsummer.

Machado?

The 55 runner is 45-50 after about five years catching. Look at what happened to Joe Mauer the second half of his career. Daulton Varsho athlete except with 30-40 home run power and a .285ish average...sounds like a sound Lackey comp. Also, Cholowsky definitely wouldn't be able to easily convert to CF like a Jackson Merrill or even Billy Carlson. Colton is a top 5 guy now at SS...so: Don't you still take BPA if it's an NCAA/advanced bat??? Lombard hit tool is just coming under way too much scrutiny. Eric Booth, the other polarizing athlete who could go 5/6 or slip down to 10-12. Is Roch Cholowsky even capable of being better than CJ Abrams is right now, for example? 1-1 should be a dynamic/star talent... What value does Roch fall to with a position change to 3B or 2B?

Only $161 million through his year 38 season….assuming a trade at the end of July. Sounds exactly like JR. Not!

“Barring injury, I don’t see a world where he’s not at least an everyday MLB shortstop who hits 15-20 homers — his ceiling is 25-30 homers with a high OBP — and he'll play plus defense in any scenario.” Hope he’s closer to that NCAA star than Brooks Baldwin power numbers with the wooden bat. Without the presence of Teel, you’d almost have to take Lackey based on his much louder tools. Then you start thinking to yourself…couldn’t Teel just be the LF solution, lol, with Braden/Carlson in center or right, and Bonemer … DH LF 1B 3B 2B?

Gray maybe. deGrom makes $37 million per year ... is always hurt ... and will cost prospects Getz isn't willing to surrender. One year is worth more than two of Mune???

Send my regards to Mike McNeive with the Hawks...we went to grad school together. Cubs' jokes work well with him. Or anything about Notre Dame.
