2024 - MLB Draft Thread
I really hope the White Sox end up with the 7th pick. Keep them eligible for top 3 in 2025

Paul Janish Hired as Director of Player Development
I have no issue with this. Analytical type from outside the org. Player development directors rarely have experience because they get promoted to other jobs generally He also has a connection with Walt Jocketty who hangs out with Jerry Reinsdorf and Tony La Russa….

Kim Ng walks away from Marlins
Totally agree. Getz will be singular decision maker

Five off-season questions...
Barfield is basically Rick Hahn in this new structure

Matt Wise new Sox bullpen coach
I'm sure it's fine. He's the assistant pitching coach.

Jeremy Haber
He might have been. I think there’s room for him if they want him doing contracts etc. though. I wouldn’t be opposed to him being gone, I just think he stays

Jeremy Haber
I would imagine he stays. He’s the contract guy.

Kim Ng walks away from Marlins
Dejon Watson was also mentioned. He has history with Tony La Russa and Dave Stewart so that wouldn’t be a surprise

MLB Trade Rumors - Chicago White Sox Offseason Outlook - by Tim Dierkes
Bruce Levine is very good friends with Gene Watson. It's very likely true. The White Sox are fucking idiots. Salvy Perez can't really catch anymore and he posted an 86 wRC+ last year with -0.3 fWAR. This whole thing is absurd.

Fegan writes "coaching changes..."
Nah Boston is toast. He and all of the other Ken Williams spies and lackies will just vanish into the ether

Josh Barfield expected to be asst. GM; Brian Bannister and Gene Watson coming as well
I think it’s a new position. Teaford was only involved on minors side

My fault. I had that saved in my quotes for some reason and it posted both.

Greenberg is Scott Harris’ best friend. I feel like Sox fans would complain about the nepotism

Colson is just an alien
Wechsler was the area scout but this is a Mike Shirley production
