When do we start trading our few good relievers that aren't long term pieces? Let's make this bullpen entirely 100% catastrophic.

Is it too early to start the 2020 draft thread? I've already started memorizing players.

He's so fun to watch. Will be a shame when the Sox trade him as they undergo rebuild #2, since the first one didn't take.

Man. Glasnow has filthy movement on that fastball. He was a mess with Pitt. How do we poach the Rays development staff?

Curious to see how ReyLo bounces back from his UCL injury from last start.

Buncha draft stuff from Kiley's chat today. Pulled it out. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/kiley-mcdaniel-chat-4-10-19/

I love and hate this.

BA Mock 4.0 https://www.baseballamerica.com/rankings/mlb-mock-draft/ Gated. Will post the top 10 and the White Sox blurb. Willing to answer any questions as well regarding other players placement. 1.) BAL - Rutschman 2.) KC - Vaughn 3.) CHW - Witt 4.) MIA - Abrams 5.) DET - Greene 6.) SD - Carroll 7.) CIN - Lodolo 8.) TEX - Bishop 9.) ATL - Stott 10.) SFG - Allan

The Madrigal hate around here by a few posters is a bit much. It's like people actively want him to fail.

Wat. I don't recall reading anything about the Royals promising Brady Singer money causing him to fall. His stock was wavering most of the season, particularly near the draft. I believe some folks even had Kowar leapfrogging him by draft day.

3 H 0 BB 5 SO for Cease through 5.0 IP. 73 pitches. He might be done.

Lenyn Sosa 2B. Steele has one as well.

Man. Cease looks like he would be the best pitcher in the rotation right now. 97 to 98 fastball that he throws for strikes. Drops the curve in as needed. I'd like more of these pitchers please.

Maybe this is the year we get the #1 pick overall. ?

Ooh. Gamethread is already frothing at the mouth. Can't wait to turn this one on during my lunch hour.

Interesting on Lodolo. I don't think I would mind. Especially if they are able to underslot it a bit.
