I doubt either are moved.

Totally. With all of the graduations and not many development wins this season the farm isn't looking so hot. I think Bonemer is your only top 100 guy at this point? Maybe Carlson is in the back end? Hagen stinking it up, Bergolla being indefinitely hurt, Oppor forgetting how to throw a baseball ain't great. I like Fauske and Gabe Davis, but they aren't there just yet. They really need to nail some talent in this draft. I'd like a high end prep bat and they desperately need to hit on some pitching. Though I'm far more inclined to trust in hitter development at this point.

What are you even talking about? The Sox acquiring another draft pick and more bonus pool has no implications on extending Vargas or Mune.

That would annoy me greatly if I was a Pirates fan. Do you think there is traction here?

I have no clue. @Y2Jimmy0 was suggesting a 3 way trade could work? I just dont quite understand why the Pirates would want to give up a comp pick though. Those are gold for smaller market teams who rely on developing talent internally.

Truly hope this happens.

He's absolutely not a fireballer. Might call him a junkballer? Fills up the zone with 5 to 6 different pitch types according to Savaant.

Man. How do we get this Burke every game?

Averaged 92 mph on the 4 seamer for the game.

Mason Adams sure looks like next man up.

Huge yips energy.

If I were a team outside the top 3 picks, I'd be all over Tyler Bell. I think he's going to be a monster.

Kiley put out a "mock," but this one is who he would pick if he was in charge of the team. He'll have a more traditional intel based mock after the combine. Will share the top 10. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/49097032/2026-mlb-mock-draft-expert-first-round-picks-no-1-chicago-white-sox-cholowsky-emerson-lackey

And was just demoted to AAA with a 7.08 ERA.

Sure hope they are working on addressing this in some capacity. The state of the pitching development in the minors is pretty abysmal. It somewhat gives me pause on spending high picks on prep pitching if you don't have confidence in development.

Struck out his last 3 batters.

It pains me that the Sox missed out on Sloan. There was a lot of interest at the time I believe. I wonder if they were trying to float him to the 3rd round.

Bruh. Can you imagine what it might be like to have legitimate international prospects? I'm salivating.

I'm hoping the Hagen selection has humbled him. Trust your scouts.

Time to update the injury tracker.
