  1. That's because Kiley mocked Kelley to the Sox yesterday.
  2. Source: The San Diego Padres are selecting Robert Hassell at No. 8. Well THAT affects the Sox.
  3. Would be a shame if all this madness and moving around takes places in picks 2-10 and the Sox don't end up having anyone actually fall to them. As of now, everyone taken was already supposed to be go before pick #11 anyway, so this hasn't affected the Sox at all yet.
  4. I don't know if it's the low angle, but that might be biggest HS baseball player I've ever seen.
  5. While watching Reid Detmers highlights just now, the comp that immediately came to mind was basically Jose Quintana with a better curveball. Anyone who has paid a lot more attention to Detmers than my YouTube scouting think that's fair or way off?
  6. But isn't that typically because they are teenagers who can't agree to anything yet? Does this also happen with 21 year olds?
  7. If Colas would be someone who might be pushed to the July 2021 signing period, what would be the reason for his switch in agencies at this current time? Could they "agree" to something w/ the Sox this far in advance and just not have it become official for another 14 months?
  8. God damn, that's awful Josh. And as the owner of the Mastiff, how can they even look you in the eye after that? I took my parent's Brittany to meet Santa last Xmas when my fiance worked at a vet clinic and when another dog passed by, my parent's dog lunged at the dog and nipped it's fur on it's back leg. The dog got scared and the owner just started lasers through me as she walked away. I was mortified and felt so embarrassed that she did that. I can't even fucking imagine if my dog ever did serious harm or especially killed someone else's pet. That's so sad to hear, especially when the owner is lazy and often lets it happen. UGH
  9. White Sox have fallen to 2-3 now. Lost yet another extra innings game, this time in 12 innings against the Indians. Cesar Hernandez with a 2-run no-doubt walk-off HR off Cishek. Sox lose 3-1. Robert, Moncada, and TA7 all compiled 2 hits a piece. Madrigal finally picked up his first ML hit. A soft gork shot over 3B. Gio Gonzalez was great in his long-awaited Sox debut. 7 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 3 BB, 5 K. Jimmy Cordero gave up a run in the 8th, getting charged with a BS. The score remained 1-1 until the 12th when Bummer let a man on, and Cishek gave up the game ender. Giolito gets us back to 3-3 by pitching a CG shutout of the Indians. 10 Ks, 1 BB, and 8 hits. I simmed this game. (They did ask me if I wanted to come in to the 9th and finish off the shutout. I obliged)
  10. Yessir. My hitting difficulty is on Hall of Fame right now, so it's pretty difficult.
  11. Tatis is 1 for 19 with 1 BB, 10 K. We took the first game against Cleveland. Rodon with a nice start. Eloy hit his 4th HR. Robert got a bases loaded seeing-eye single for his first major league hit. Madrigal....still hitless.
  12. You guys.... I got bad news. I started my franchise and the Sox go 1-2 against the Royals in the opening series. Danny Duffy just threw a CG shutout against me, allowing 2 hits with 10 K and 0 BB. Luis Robert is 0-14 with 5 K and 0 BB. Madrigal is 0-10 with 1 BB, 1 K. And less important, Mazara is 0-12 with 1 BB, 4 K. The good news? Eloy has 3 HR and TA7 is batting .385. As for the pitching, Kopech had a great first start. 7 1/3 IP, 1 ER, 0 BB, 7 K. Giolito struck out 8 batters in only 3 1/3 IP before a rain delay wiped out his Opening Day start, but he was tagged with 3 runs. Colome has been bad. 3 2/3 IP, 3 ER, 2 HR, blown save. I'm sure you all would love for more updates on my 2020 White Sox.
  13. Thompson is there. No Dalquist. James Beard is the only one I cared to add because he is immediately a weapon off the bench.
  14. Just started my franchise. Had to create and add James Beard to the Sox org. And, per usual, I had to tweak a lot of the Sox player's atributes. It seems they are always so far off when it comes to speed and defense. I think Moncada had like a 64 speed or something.
  15. They already released a version 1.5 that apparently fixes the issues.
  16. RidinRosters, basically the official OSFM rosters just came out an hour ago. That's what you'll want to use before you start your franchise.
  17. I bought my first house last April with a 5.25% rate. Should I be refinancing right now? What are the downsides? Upfront costs? We only planning on staying in this house for another 3-4 years before we likely build a home. Do they freeze our credit again and run credit checks like they did when we first bought the house? We are getting married in September and my fiance just got laid off her job 3 weeks ago. It's hard to google this stuff without knowing if it's a website/person just trying to get my business.
  18. Not a very good point at all. In 2019 he hit in the 1-4 spots in the line-up 104 games, the most coming in the #2 hole with 41 starts. He started only 7 games in the bottom third of a National League lineup. In 2018 he started in 111 games, and spent 46 of those starts in the #3 and #4 spots. He spent 22 in the bottom third of a National League lineup. The most starts in his career have come in the 4th and 5th spots in a lineup. I'm not sure why you would think his elite on-base skills are due to being pitched around to get to a pitcher or worst hitter in an NL lineup.
  19. 51.2% for the Sox! First lead of the contest! Put all your call to all the celebs you follow on Twitter. I feel like Chance the Rapper and Sean Evans from Hot Ones have the best chance of actually getting involved. Tag them all!
  20. This would never happen, but I would make the line-up..... 1) Grandal - S 2) Robert - R 3) Moncada - S 4) Abreu - R 5) Eloy - R 6) Edwin - R 7) Anderson -R 8.) Mazara - L 9) Mendick/Madrigal - R I like Robert leading off because of his speed and he lead off most of 2019, but his lack of walks and likelihood of a solo shots either leading off the game or hitting in front of Mendick/Leury for a chunk of the year make me want him to hit 2nd, behind Grandal who is an on-base machine, but if Grandal doesn't get on, Robert still has the chance to use those legs to stretch out extra bases or swipe some bags in front of Moncada with 1 out.
  21. I live in NW Indiana and only now are Cubs stuff starting to come out. This entire winter it was about 80/20 in favor of Sox gear that I've seen worn in public. And usually a head nod to each other and a smile when noticed.
  22. WE ARE AT 50/50! Let's go people! Get the word out! Hop back on that twitter account and let's roll baby!
