What does it say about Burger for Elly de la Cruz?

Hahn is going to brag about getting a jump on the market...before other big name pitchers like Snell became available over the weekend. That said....seems Ohtani definitely won't move now, same with Stroman.

Thought it was ChatGPT Now Hahn finally comes out of hiding to crow about his "haul" of prospects to move the Sox closer to the #20-24 range of MiLB systems.

Cuban Connection revived lol...

https://www.milb.com/player/edgar-quero-700337 718 ops in AAA right now Pretty sure the same hometown as Yasiel Puig lol.

"Scouting grades: Hit: 55 | Power: 50 | Run: 40 | Arm: 50 | Field: 50 | Overall: 55 Signed for $200,000 in February 2021, Quero has gone from Cuban U-15 standout in 2018 to top catching prospect in a hurry. Because he was almost 18 when he signed, he skipped over the Dominican Summer League and made his pro debut in the Arizona Complex League in 2021, playing well enough to get bumped up to full-season ball. He spent the 2022 season with Single-A Inland Empire and took home California League MVP honors after posting a .965 OPS. A switch-hitter with more power from the left side of the plate, Quero barrels up the ball consistently from both sides. He has an advanced approach with excellent plate discipline, drawing a ton of walks in the early stages of his pro career. He has the chance to be at least an above-average hitter when all is said and done, and his ability to tap into his raw pop took a nice step forward in 2022, with more over-the-fence ability to come as he continues to figure out when to attack pitches in the zone. Quero moves well behind the plate and has a solid arm, but there’s still work to be done on other facets of his defensive game, from his receiving to his game-calling. He’ll be just 20 for all of the 2023 season, leaving the Angels optimistic those skills will sharpen, giving them a potential big league starting catcher as a result." mlb.com scouting system report #9 ranked catcher in the minors currently

Angels have Bottom 3-5 farm system right?

What's the core of CLE after Jose Ramirez and Gimenez?

Kelly has to go...or Graveman. Roster is way too expensive still with all these cutbacks looming.

Not sure he's even better than Cespedes. We tried Tatis family, Yoenis' family, Franmil Reyes' family...not working out so well. $2.5 million for Yogurt Sanchez vs. $65k for Elly de la Cruz.

Well at least Clevinger is progressing for a return after the deadline...

Still better than Beckham will be...

3 hours and 18 mins giving JR huge revenue from majority Cubs' fans for two days...

Negative TV rankings like the Astros had in the heart of their rebuild years with just Altuve.

Lost in the game notes is Zavala being run out of the building and hitting a cool 495 OPS. Colas at just 516.

Don Kessinger's kid is available...

Around 410 plate appearances since his last homer...

Scratched from rehab game Madrigal (hamstring) was scratched from the lineup for Triple-A Iowa on Sunday due to "general lower body fatigue ...after having a three hit game. So on brand for the Sox.

Bibee TBD LT Allen Civale How are they .500 again?

Mastrobuoni has to be the target...just so they can try out every lousy middle infielder around the league.

White Sox acquiring Ohtani?

I thought disliking TLR made him the good guy on the right side of history, lol...

Crazy thing is Brewers won 10/13 against the Reds and they're already finished playing for the year. Same with Cubs/Cardinals being finished after this weekend. Doesn't seem right...going to be much harder to chase down individual teams with six less against divisional opponents in the dog days of August and Sept.

Just wait until the Guardians run absolutely wild the next four games...

And Cashman has never had a losing season his entire tenure in NY. But 14 years since last WS.
