Quin

Trying to create a hypothetical team based on moves stretched out over that many seasons is crazy difficult. It's like when people say that if the Bulls had kept Aldridge instead of trading him, imagine pairing him with Joakim Noah and Derrick Rose. They probably don't land Derrick Rose in that scenario. If Sale was still around in 2020, Quintana and Eaton are probably still around. When are the Sox drafting in this new timeline and is Crochet still around? Do they still whiff Wheeler or does he join them? Do they get 2020 Keuchel? If they keep Sale and Quintana, do they need Rodon as a starter in 2021, fueling his resurgence? The butterfly effect on draft picks, trades and other moves is too strong to say that they'd have all three of Sale, Rodon and Crochet, even if Jerry was willing to shell out mega contracts.

"Look, Luis is extremely depressed being here. We think he'll do better in a more nurturing environment. Thus, I need your most extroverted prospect."

Notably, only young and dumb people enjoy home runs.

This is as good a time as any to drop one of my favorite Buehrle articles: The Curious Case of Mark Buehrle

For some reason, NBA League Pass won't let me watch fucking Summer League. If Summer League is getting blacked out, there's a problem.

To save money, Reinsdorf will commission a statue of Manager Ozzie fielding a ball.

To be fair, Mark Buehrle is one of the craziest draft picks of all-time and the key to his pitching wasn't his stuff, it was the fact that he's one of the best defensive pitchers of all-time and pitched stupid fast.

Time to expect the underslots?

The reaction to Jacob Gonzalez tells me otherwise. And he was ranked right where the Sox took him, so that makes me even more confused.

To be fair, this is better than when Hostetler loved calling it "a sixth tool" and suddenly they were drafting six tool players.

Any time the Padres are interested in a Sox player it makes me want to keep the Sox player.

After Misiorowski got named an All-Star, Houser deserves it if more AL pitchers drop. Legit great signing from Getz.

Andrew Vaughn putting pressure on the Cubs to acquire Houser. Thanks Vaughn. But also seriously wtf. That was murdered.
