QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 28, 2013 -> 01:29 AM) 2 1 •Reply•Share › Josh Conn • 6 days ago − If I am the Pirates, I should be interested in both Ramirez and Thornton. Jordy Mercer might be the answer at SS, or might not, but Ramirez would be an upgrade for this year for sure. Pirates need another lefty in the pen besides Watson. •Reply•Share › Honey Badger GM • 6 days ago I feel like the O's will be the team most involved in trading with the ChiSox, with Peavy as a TOR starter, and Beckham/Ramirez better than whatever we throw out there at second on a daily basis. Then again, the O's say that they don't want to give up much (maybe Arrieta), so I don't see how they think they are gonna get anything done. •Reply•Share › PursueYourDream • 6 days ago Alan Hanson, Nick Kingham, Andy Oliver, Alex Presley, and James McDonald for Rios and Ramirez. Pirates would be dangerous with those two in the lineup. •Reply•Share › jwsox PursueYourDream • 5 days ago To get rios AND alexi. I would have to assume Hahn would try to get (Jameson) Tallion. Even if it meant the sox eating a chunk of both contracts. Who are these people?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 27, 2013 -> 08:37 PM) Add a walk for Hawkins. His best game as a pro without a homer. Moar please.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 27, 2013 -> 06:29 PM) Depends on who we trade and what we get. 2014 will likely be a transition year no matter what we do, but I honestly believe if Hahn makes the right moves at the deadline and makes a couple smart free agent signings we can be competitive by 2015. I think a lot has to go right for 2015. I'm thinking 2016, and I'm okay with it. I'd like them to build something a bit more sustainable, and if it takes more time so be it.

Jim Callis ‏@jimcallisBA 1m #WhiteSox sign 19th-rder Adam Engel for $100k. Louisville OF, loaded with tools (VG run, big lg CF, raw power), inconsistent bat. #mlbdraft

Good. It's very much needed and overdue. Settle in to suck for a bit, build the farm, and attempt to compete again when Detroit's window is closing.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 24, 2013 -> 10:24 PM) Which Johnson are we talking about here? I'm talking Erik. I like Micah, but he's nowhere near the prospect yet. Needs to be producing in an age appropriate league first.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 24, 2013 -> 10:07 PM) Oh yeah, I'm sure I'm being reactionary but he has a far better chance than Hawkins of making the majors. The fact he is very likely to stick as legitimate CF by most accounts is a big deal. I'm pleased that the Sox have let him develop at a more conservative pace.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 24, 2013 -> 09:59 PM) 3-5, 3 doubles for Thompson He's up there with Erik Johnson as a prospect as far as I'm concerned.

2 K's for Hawkins already. Ugh. I'm starting to join the opinion of demotion.

This thread should be fun.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 24, 2013 -> 06:15 PM) Triple for Anderson in his first AB Off of a fine pitching prospect as well.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Jun 24, 2013 -> 03:44 PM) WS Starting Lineup Joey DeMichele – SS Chris Curley – DH Kevan Smith – C Jeremy Farrell – 3B Courtney Hawkins – CF Rangel Ravelo – 1B Grant Buckner – LF Josh Richmond – RF David Herbek – 2B Chris Bassitt – RHP First time he's playing SS. Are we seeing if we can make a spot for Micah?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 22, 2013 -> 09:21 PM) Either way, it's hard not to get a little excited about 4 walks in the first 2 games from an 18 year old. Seconded. Very encouraging. I love me some walks.

lol

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2013 -> 10:33 AM) In a BA chat yesterday, they said the Cubs have the best collection of offensive prospects in all of baseball Yep. Soler, Almora, Baez, and Bryant. Want.

QUOTE (MnSoxFan @ Jun 20, 2013 -> 09:06 PM) Thanks. I also have never found where Luis Castillo is, he is one of our Latin America signees, not in the DSL or either of the two entry teams, Bristol and Great Falls. But I am not surprised, likely just working out in Arizona or something? Castillo is on the 60 day DL apparently.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 20, 2013 -> 06:14 PM) Well, if you have to choose between Avisail Garcia and Castellanos, you take Castellanos and worry about where you play Gillaspie later. He's a good fielder, LH, good stroke, he would be poor man's Mark Grace at 1B and maybe ideally he's suited for the bench on a very good team, but it's not like Viciedo, Black or Wilkins are great options at first either. I don't see why Kendrys Morales would want to come here...just don't see the White Sox in a huge bidding war for him coming off this season. More likely, we'll end up with someone like Adam Lind or Carlos Pena. Half a season of Crain is not getting you Castellanos.

The Twins are going to be fun to watch when Sano and Buxton arrive. Gibson and Meyer aren't far off either. Then Berrios and Stewart. Man that farm is stacked.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2013 -> 08:12 PM) No reason Sox can't get the worst record in the AL and possibly the 2nd pick in the draft. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Clearly safe.

Axelrod looks awful.

QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jun 17, 2013 -> 07:41 PM) I know the Sox system is bad, but it's hard for me to get behind a RH SP that sits in the high 80's as their #1 prospect. I've yet to hear this from anywhere. http://www.minorleagueball.com/2013/4/23/4...ameday-april-23

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 17, 2013 -> 03:50 PM) Peavy and Rios to the Rangers on July 25. One Rangers prospect that I'd be interested in is Rougned Odor. Very much blocked for the forseeable future. Doing rather well for a 19 year old in High-A. Luke Jackson is an interesting pitcher. Rangers also have some toolsy players in Brinson/Williams. Olt is also worth mentioning.

1. Erik Johnson 2. Trayce Thompson 3. Courtney Hawkins 4. Tim Anderson 5. Carlos Sanchez

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 17, 2013 -> 01:12 PM) .264 now! I'm still quite bullish on Trayce. He has to be the system's number 2 prospect behind Johnson.
