  1. maybe not having tests is on purpose. Plus having expensive health care...maybe that’s the best defense? go down that rabbit hole for sec.
  2. Hang in there man- I hope today is a better day for your little one
  3. Basically like 5 of the last 30 number 4 picks have ever produced even 10 career bWAR. So 25 of the last 30 drafts have amounted to jack at #4. Get that ceiling boys! and the Sox are responsible for 2 of them ? know who they are?
  4. Nah. I don’t agree with this at all. Maybe I’m reading your tone wrong but it sounds like you’re saying this as fact instead of opinion. Which, nah.
  5. Wait a minute. We’re SO progressive now that we can’t mention death in a conversation about a virus killing people? We have hurt feelings by the unaffected while real people are actually suffering, dying and losing loved ones? Hawk would just say, “mercy”
  6. I think the elderly are going to be smart and hunker down for a while. In the US it’s not as customary for generations to live under the same house, so generally the elderly are isolated pretty well to their communities. I think with how spread out our country is, if the elderly wait it out pretty smartly for a few months or whatever, you’ll probably see the lowest death rates in the US. With all the food and resource delivery we have, I think we’ll be all right.
  7. Well said. I was just thinking about something. It seems backwards, but maybe our for-profit health system is our best defense as a herd. If it was the other way you’d have every sniffle at the hospital mixing with the actual virus carriers. When this is over, maybe it’s time we all write a letter to corporate America thanking them for medical and pharmaceutical greed. ?
  8. I’m starting to think that the US will be okay and that the prognostications of overflowing hospitals with no beds and no doctors left by May is bananas-level crazy.
  9. I’m sure not looking like Dayan Viciedo standing there would help
  10. I’m expecting the team to do well enough for people to drop the whole act about comparing this rebuild to anything JR, KW, & RH have done in the past. This is a whole new thing- impossible to compare to anything in the history of the Sox. Absolutely impossible BTW love the 1981 stuff. I’m referring to post 2000
  11. Feel bad for James. It was probably last year‘s best story. What a huge success turning that cast-off into one of the top catchers in the game (depending how you see the breakout). Everything about him was awesome and he earned being our starting catcher for the next 5 years. I feel really bad for him.
  12. Sure there are some people who are just stupid super rich. But if you’re not in that club, then you’re in the “everybody else” club. And that’s okay when you look at it that way.
  13. Eh. There was no stopping this. It traveled all over the world Jan-Feb. It was over by New Years in reality. Wash your hands and avoid hookers and blow for a few months
  14. Man I’d love to see that in some other-worldly numbers. What’s your guess? .350/.475/.625
  15. Word. Just incredible. I’m rooting so hard for this dude. His channel is the most interesting baseball footage I have ever seen. this is the future
  16. At least we don’t have to talk about that stuff anymore now that the new plan and direction are front and center
  17. If there’s any team that has the ability to locate the HS pitching version of Mike Trout, it’s the White Sox at #11. I love the idea of going HS pitching the first three rounds. That would give us 5 HS pitchers out of our top 6 picks over two years. Gettin it done, son!
  18. I think he is the FO’s #1 plan going back a year, hence Mazara. Adolfo having a big year all but guarantees 7-8 straight championships
  19. Agreed. Side note. Who writes these? Those capitals
  20. It’s almost over. The most interesting thing to me is that 30 MLB franchises pay teams and teams of people to analyze stats all day long. They look at stats from directions and contexts we as fans could ONLY HOPE to understand one day. And yet, nobody has signed him. And yet, fans, the people with less than 1% of the knowledge front offices have, think Puig is a good idea because of stats. As if the front offices don’t have access to dumb shit like fangraphs, stat cast blah blah you name it. Somehow the 30 professional baseball teams are the ones making a mistake...because of internet stats. blows my mind.
