I really doubt Madrigal will be up this year. They just believe he will be the future 2B, so it’s a full year of Moncada playing third where wins aren’t the priority. Hopefully it pans out for everyone. I would expect Madrigal playing a full season at Birmingham with Vizquel, then maybe AFL, then start 2020 in Charlotte and get called up quickly.

Sample size?

Alright, show's over.

Zavala caught Semien stealing

45 minutes before Eloy's first AB. Make it count.

Madrigal just struck out. Ha!

If Hill hits Eloy, I hunt him down. BTW, Eloy never gets hit by a pitch. It's like Madrigal not striking out. Very rare.

Hopefully early June. Maybe 60 games.

Jay's play will speak for itself. If he's playing consistently and sucking, he'll be gone in June.

I'd rather look at dots on my phone than ever listen to that guy.

Starting the recruiting process for Kyle in six years

Doubt Manny plays yet.

Looking forward to seeing Luis Gonzalez play a little bit.

Yes, DJ Peterson. Here's a better view...

Hey, look it. Games...

Ok. My main takeaway is that if the Sox are going to land a premium free agent in their current situation, there is no finessing their way to a deal. They needed to get in early and overpay to get their guy. There are just too many other better places to play right now. The Sox aren’t a desirable destination right now...so they needed to go harder. Oh well. It’s over now.

But a more desirable location, better road destinations. He goes to the White Sox and their rebuild fails- he would absolutely be miserable playing in that park. If the Padres fail, he’s in a great place for five years and then he can leave.

I know most will disagree, but I honestly think the Padres could have made the Sox offer, and the Sox could have made the Padres offer...and he still would have been a Padre. The position the Sox are in, they needed to get in early and hit the “Buy it Now” option to get this done.
