  1. Oh I agree. Not worried about him at this point. But as far as hitting the ball with authority, I just haven’t seen it yet. I think he’ll adapt at AA.
  2. I hope Madrigal plays all five months in Birmingham under Vizquel and he just makes adjustments as he goes. He seems like a heady player, but he hasn’t wowed anybody yet.
  3. If anything, he’s an over thinker. If you’re thinking mechanics out there, it’s not going to work out well.
  4. LaRussa, Baines, Reinsdorf
  5. Ok, let’s go Moncada 2, Palka 6, Anderson 7, then.
  6. They said 47 the other day, and that included Osich. Excluding Kopech, I count 22 pitchers and 22 position players.
  7. Opening Day vs Brad Keller (yes, that Brad Keller): Jay CF, Anderson SS, Abreu 1B, Alonso DH, Castillo C, Moncada 3B, Palka RF, Sanchez 2B, Garcia LF Bench- Engel, Rondon, Guyer, McCann Rotation- Rodon, Nova, Lopez, Giolito Bullpen until 4/8- Covey, Banuelos, Frare, Burr, Fry, Jones, Herrera, Colome
  8. Minaya outrighted. Off the 40 man Delgado reassigned 45 left, but I think it includes Kopech
  9. Reporters don’t use the phrase “time will tell”. They reports facts and leave it there.
  10. If the Sox board is Rutschman, Vaughn, Witt— having Witt as a fallback doesn’t suck if they miss out on the other two. Normally the high school thing scares me with the Sox, but the big league pedigree does lessen the fears a little bit.
  11. So he would be more qualified to come up April 12 or 15 if he wasn’t on the 40-man, and it's a little different than the Bryant situation a few years ago? Interesting. Did not know that. So the season starts March 28, then the 20th day of the season is April 16. He could play April 17 before hitting the road against two weaker teams- Tigers and Orioles.
  12. So two weeks from now, Eloy will be rich, and 2-2 with a double and homer! No pressure.
  13. Hahn did mention the April 10th fifth starter option yesterday, and said Santana is progressing and will start an A game soon. So he’ll probably be ready in 25-27 days, and Banuelos will likely be in the pen to start out.
  14. Really like the new trade deadline rule. No more waiver bullshit, which is nice.
  15. Exactly. If it happens, great. But not expecting it to happen. I’ll take it as a good sign they’ve discussed something, and leave it there.
  16. https://mobile.twitter.com/whitesox/status/1105946814212128773
  17. It should be pointed out, a 5th starter isn’t really needed until April 10 but maybe the first time is the ninth scheduled game on April 8. Not sure if Santana is going to need that much time, but they can push it back and screw with the bullpen until then. Banuelos will make the team in some form.
  18. Where are you seeing that? Both games today got cancelled. Weather looks ok tomorrow unless field conditions are bad.
  19. Can’t argue with any of that. We’re really in a wait-and-see mode over the next couple years. If the Sox aren’t a winning team set for a 2021-2025 run, hopefully Reinsdorf will be stepping aside/selling, or whatever by then so a new regime will have the guts to clean house thoroughly. Until then, we hope the prospects we have figure it out.
  20. RBI double for Eloy. Uecker said the ball should have been caught.
  21. Ha, I do not. And Van Schouwen is away for a few days. He’s been good about showing that. Probably Nova tomorrow.
  22. I would guess he’s available, but he’ll be part of the cuts in a few days.
