if this doesn't make them a playoff contender, then I don't know what will

stupid question, but is that contract being listed as USD? or CAD?

you can't rank this as a top farm system with the insane lack of depth it has (and always has had) but there are probably other systems with little depth as well who are ranked highly so, idk. just my personal opinion

thought this was a caufield post for a second

Getz should do his due diligence and at least start preparing to setup a Hagen Smith deal for Boston's 2030 and 2031 first round picks

I didn't wanna type Montgomery 3 times

imo Montgomery is the best piece they got,even though he hasn't played pro ball yet (I got no issue with people putting Teel above BM,but BM is clearly the superstar talent)

why would you trade Robert now unless you got a really good return. they've got control of him for 3 more years, and new coaches/hitting guru installed who might be able to turn him around (assuming they can keep him healthy) I would hang onto Robert for at least one more season before selling him for scraps

he was great on the pre and post shows, missed him when he stepped away. never got to see him play

you gotta get at least 3 high upside guys for crochet, doesn't need to be their top guys, but you want a deal that isn't hedging everything on 1 or 2 guys. I would need 3 personally, add Tolle in there, I want a two way guy lol

Chicago sports needs to be burned to the ground, every single franchise is in shambles right now outside of the Cubs who still aren't close to being a championship caliber team

agreed with this philosophy look at the Sox for example, we don't get any of this table flipping change if they don't lose 303 games the last 3 years

Chicago sports overall is a huge pile of incompetence, pro franchises being ran by guys who aren't qualified to be there. Nepotism in full effect. At least Sox fans don't turn out when the team is awful, Bears fans just take it up the ass every sunday

what's worse is that he won't be fired lmao

that might be the worst last 36 seconds of clock management by a head coach I've ever seen in my life

LMFAO

Elijah Evans says crochet has too much injury risk to warrant more than just 2 top 100 players

his entire contract? his remaining years are all optional for the team, they could just refuse to pick them up going forward. this isn't a benintendi situation

so are we convinced that he will be moved to 3B ? heard people mention he wasn't great defensively at SS, is that true according to the Sox?

what's Abreu's ceiling? a sub 800 OPS guy as a headliner seems light as f***, I guarantee someone else beats that, a 25yo light hitting RF who strikes out 140 times a year, the f***

If CHSN ends up being a collosal failure, does that end up being the nail in the coffin that does drive the Sox out of Chicago? Or is there a fall back plan as far as TV rights? CHSN is by no means a sure thing from what I'm hearing from Jason Coyle

haven't his IP have been declining the last 3-4 years? plus he's already had health concerns based on what I've read Drew Thorpe had bone spurs, haven't heard of anything alarming otherwise

lol his arm is obviously gonna fall off sooner rather than later, red flags on those IP numbers the last few years

slightly off topic, but with the current trend of organizational name/mascot changes due to being potentially offensive to certain groups of people, will the hawks ever be forced to change their name or logo/mascot?

I don't think Caleb Williams quit, he just looks like a deer in the headlights on every play
