  1. Maybe they'll hire you if you write old Wilpon a letter!
  2. What happened to Hansen? Has he made a start for the Dash yet?
  3. If you’re evaluating a player based on one metric, you’re doing it wrong. He can most certainly be an everyday player with his mix of speed, power, & base-running. And his BABIP is well below his major & minor league averages, so his BA & OBP should hopefully improve long-term. I see Tim as a league average hitter who can play above average defense & provide base running value. That’s a 3+ WAR player IMO.
  4. God I hate KenWo
  5. WTF? I like you Jack, but I have no idea what similarities you see between Avi & Eloy. Jimenez is arguably the second best hitter in the minors right now after Vlad Junior. Avi was never in the same stratosphere as a hitter or prospect.
  6. Rick Hahn may prove to be a terrible GM, but it won’t be because he never wore a varsity jacket. And him going to Harvard & Northwestern for graduate degrees are only good things, no matter how badly some here would like to spin it otherwise.
  7. Why in the world do you think that? I have no idea why you’re so down on Eloy when he has done nothing but hit since joining this organization.
  8. No idea. I wouldn’t sign either guy for more than 1 or 2 years though. I only want to add vets if they can serve as transitions to the kids, not block them.
  9. Why the fuck does this matter at all? What kind of experience did Jeff Luhnow have exactly? Oh right, nothing since high school and yet he just built the best team in baseball. You got to move off this ridiculous tangent man.
  10. If they give 600 AB’s to any of those CFs, then Rick should be fired on the spot. Playing time is an asset during a rebuild. Other than Leury, who is made of glass, none of them has done anything to warrant an extended look next year. Sign a vet that can take some pressure off the kids and potentially be flipped if things go right. I’m all for Machado, but if we miss I have no problem with a vet for a year and try at Arenado the following offseason.
  11. No I didn’t. And please never cite names like Altuve, Bergman, Springer, & Coors when discussing Adam Engel & Yolmer Sanchez. Giving them everyday roles again would be a terrible decision.
  12. Moncada has one option left. If they send him down, it will be sometime next year. Let the coaching staff live or die with his development over the next month and a half.
  13. What kids? Engel may be the worst offensive player in baseball. Sanchez got his chance as an everyday regular and has failed to capitalize on it. If we’re not playing a young guy with potential, then we might as well as sign some vets on short term deals to stabilize the clubhouse & provide some leadership. God knows the coaching staff isn’t doing. Purposely tankjng again next year after calling up two top 10 prospects is a completely idiotic plan.
  14. I know it’s easy to blame the hitting coach, but I don’t see what he’s accomplishing here. Half the team has horrible approaches at the plate, guys constantly go through lengthy slumps, & and when someone finally does something right like Anderson taking some walks they quickly revert to their bad habits. They need to bring in a new voice before next season and not risk another year of stalled development with this guy.
  15. At this point, assuming Machado is a no go, I hope they sign Pollack, Dozier, & Murphy to pillow contracts this offseason. Pollack, CF Moncada, 2B Abreu, DH Jimenez, LF Murphy, 1B A. Garcia, RF Dozier, 3B Anderson, SS Castillo, C That could actually be a damn good lineup with rebounds from Murphy & Dozier.
  16. Lol...what? Sign a veteran to a short-term deal and end this nonsense. Engel is not a major league caliber player.
  17. I dream of the day I never have to see Engel swing a bat again.
  18. I can handle the losing, but the stupidity is just too much.
  19. He never wore a varsity jacket and therefore is unequivocally unqualified for the job.
  20. That won’t do shit bro. I’d still have to read all the people replying to your non-stop b****ing & whining. Unfortunately this really is North Korea and there’s no ending your tyranny Kim Jung-un.
  21. Thank god for that Timmy HR...we really needed that.
  22. They should fire Renteria and let the new manger decide which coaches stay & go. Cooper should not be forced on anyone like he has in the past.
  23. He needs the curveball to be effective in the long-run, so I’m not sure what ditching it in a rebuilding season accomplishes.
  24. For the love of god, take a breather from White Sox baseball. All you do is b**** & whine about the same things over & over and are single-handedly bringing down the quality of the site.
