Timmy U, so it looks like Sox have two, count 'em two, genuine young outfield prospects in Wilfred Veras and Jacob Burke, neither of whom were on anyone's radar a year ago. Thanks for your comments on them both the last few days.

Uh, he probably won't take your offer.

Burdi got tattooed last night. Tampa gave up 20 runs, 5 by Burdi in one inning.

Jacob Burke keeps hitting for Kanny.Okay, then it's the Golden Sombrero.Is that called the Golden Sombrero?Vaughn needs a few days off.It was an 0 and 2 waste pitch.Burger is seeking and found his own level, He got a few hits, and posters here thought he could actually hit. He is the second coming of somebody, not sure who. Cass Michaels comes to mind.No. It was the river.I thought for sure that Vaughn would have a solid season. Sort of .280ish BA, OPS around .850 or so. Still attainable. One thing I have noticed is that he seems to get a lot of really shitty calls from Home Plate umpires. He'll get better.Wow, that didn't take long.I wish I knew more about Wilfred Veras, other than his stat line.Cubbies imploded in 8th and 9th innings vs Twins. Tough loss.I looked it up. Jesse Jefferson. Circa 1975-1976.Good question. I remember we had a pitcher 30 or so years ago who was done, and he just would not throw the ball. He just stood there until Mgr. came out. Can't remember the name. Jesse somebody. "You can't hit it if I don't pitch it."Our stupid manager thinks it's cool to let Clevinger get touched up for a few runs to keep his ERA up there.You got that right, Timmy. I remember when he was hanging around the Rocky club house when he was a little kid. Cutest kid ever. One look at his parents and you just knew he had a shot at whatever athletic choice he made. If the White Sox had drafted him, he would be an easy Number 1 Prospect.The Sale trade did not do him any favors."If a horse can't chew it, I don't want to play on it."Disagree. I was here when Minoso arrived. Still a hero.A's should make a deal with Rockies and move to Denver, which can support both teams.
