Tilson and Davidson will be long gone by 2020. Sorry.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2017 -> 03:06 PM) I will gladly take a chance of him having a higher career WAR than any mix of guys they would have signed next two years I agree, and I kinda figured you were being sarcastic. Today is a good day for the rebuild.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2017 -> 03:01 PM) Kinda bummed this takes them out of the 2018 J2 signing period They must know Robert is a can't-miss prospect. This has to be on that level, or they're beyond screwed.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 20, 2017 -> 02:38 PM) Right. I'm ready to say he sucks, who is with me? In my opinion, the two position players the Sox can't miss on are Robert and Collins. And when I say Collins, I mean as a catcher.

Perhaps we can confirm his birth date and name pronunciation in the next couple days.

Cool.

QUOTE (peavy44 @ May 20, 2017 -> 01:49 PM) No your not It's you're, but I agree.

I like when you Wiki his name, it just says born in 1997. No birthdate, like some player born in 1886 in the Baseball Encyclopedia. By the way, 1997! Christ.

Bad day for fake twitter. Speaking for myself, I'm ashamed for refreshing this as much as I have.

Is this as bad as college fans on signing day, or just close?

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ May 20, 2017 -> 11:41 AM) Q I think now has thrown five straight quality starts. He seems to be over the rough start. Still mind blowing that the guy allows one hit in eight innings and can't get a win. Just incredible. He gave up 4 ER in Baltimore two starts ago. Last night is just another example why pitcher decisions shouldn't be assigned anymore. They're meaningless in today's game.

18-22 after 40. Probably will be the Sox best quarter of the season.

Benintendi with a double. Breaks his 0-26.

Kopech wild from the get go.

Saturday in China...did we sign Robert?

Dunning had a wild pitch over a guy's head. https://mobile.twitter.com/CarolinaMudcats/...714946713284609

QUOTE (fathom @ May 19, 2017 -> 06:37 PM) Dunning ejected Oops. Rough patch in W-S.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 19, 2017 -> 06:29 PM) Don't know about you guys, but it's a letdown when I see WS had hits in the first inning and it's not Basabe or Collins Yes, especially Collins. I'd like to see more boxscores where he goes 2-3, with a walk. Still optimistic, considering he's thriving behind the plate, but he should be barreling up A ball pitching.

Hopefully Q gets past the second inning without giving up a run. He's usually golden when that happens. Sale out in Oakland tonight. Still a good shot Sale vs Quintana on May 30.

Good chance the Sox will have the worst AL record by the end of this trip. Agree with most- perfect loss tonight.

Frazier getting hot right when a Justin Turner hurts his leg.

I'm all for the tank, but a Rule 5 pick with an 8 ERA isn't something you can trot out there for 3-4 months.

Matt Cooper pitched ok tonight. Nice to see he's on the same schedule.

Berrios dominating the Rockies.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ May 18, 2017 -> 11:05 AM) Kind of ironic to me that when the Sox were trying to be good ("go for it") they always came up short behind better teams and now that they are rebuilding, other teams (actually a lot of them) are worse and they are coming up a little short from that perspective as well (referring to getting the #1 pick specifically). Plenty of time. Sox can still end up with the worst AL record. 4-12 the last 16. Kinda sucks the NL is so top heavy with a bunch of crappy teams at the bottom. Interleague favors the AL, so it would be nice if draft order alternated by league.
