Quin

I'm just wondering what type of pitcher Pilkington will be if he ever regains his velocity.

Of all the "Reinsdorf $$$" conspiracy theories.....this may be the biggest stretch I've ever seen for this exact reason.

Well, this year he was a worse hitter than Alonso and was a worse HR hitter than Cordell and Delmonico.

He has a sub-.300 OBP last season. The power was good. The rest, not so much.

Pacers ain't throwing out Tyreke Evans anymore. He's been kicked out of the league.

Royce Lewis was like, the #5 prospect.

To get Ja it'd be Lauri + this year's first.

Real DH flexibility? But what about Mark Kotsay?

I'd imagine so, with Zavala being the backup. The nice thing is Collins could become an emergency third catcher.

And it's all bubbling up right before the draft. The perfect time.

Yup. Due to the injury + Klutch, it could scare Phoenix off if they can't work him out. Only play they really got, but it is a play.

This reeks of the Bulls.

Dick-Man is his traditional name around these parts

Varnell - 6 IP, 6 H, 2 ER (4 R), 1 BB, 4 Ks

Brooks Boyer is actually the puppet master.

We can only hope the O's would be so crazy.

It's not the fit I'm worried about. It's the contract, age, and giving up a pick which could add depth/potential when we can just use the cap space to go hard after Brogdon.* This is assuming Brogdon would take the best offer on the table. Conley is definitely the worst case scenario.

Eh, 7 rings is far from the worst thing. While Jordan was already on the team, a team still needed to be put in place around him. Post-Rose injury when the Bulls just stopped trying, I'll give you. I'm afraid they try to trade the #7 for Jrue. I'd rather they just pay up for Brogdon, then draft Bol Bol.

I can't stand that the Bulls winning that coin toss gave them the 7th pick. Losing the coin toss, they walk away with Doncic. Anyway, at this point it looks like the Bulls are destined to get Coby White. Trying to convince myself that he'll be fine, kind of like last season with Wendell, which ended up working out. Reading The Ringer's draft guide on him makes me feel a little better as someone who didn't catch many UNC games. Also wondering what the hell the Bulls end up doing with Dunn. I'm wondering if they could swing a deal for a 2nd rounder and snatch Darius Bazley to try and get some home run potential/front court depth in the second. This just sucks, because now the question becomes: Can Lauri and LaVine lead a supporting cast of Porter-Carter-White-Valentine-Hutchinson and some free agents into at least the second round? It's basically the ceiling of the Baby Bulls.

I don't know if they want to use the 40-man spot on them yet. They'd basically be cannon fodder to try and squeeze out 5 innings.

Stephens, Adams and Guerrero have all been getting blown up. Guys on the 40-man: Medeiros, Stephens. Names who could be added once Rodon is put on the 60-day: Guerrero, Adams, Cease. Outside of Cease, I fear for all of them. You could throw Flores in there, but I doubt they'd want to rush him. Wth Medeiros, I don't think they'd care at this point.

White Sox social media already made him La Pantera.

I hate that they extended Boylen. I'm hoping Chris Fleming can bring something to the table towards revamping the offense. Forgot to include this in the mock: 38. Bulls - Admiral Schofield Schofield is a perfect fit if he doesn't become cash considerations. Big wingspan and can defend, can hit the 3.

The Athletic's Mock 1. Pelicans - Zion 2. Grizzlies - Morant 3. Knicks - Barrett 4. Lakers - Culver 5. Cavaliers - Hunter 6. Suns - Garland 7. Bulls - White 8. Hawks - Reddish Big concern with White is making plays in the half court, but expects him to fit well with the Bulls due to his speed, scoring ability and length, which gives him some defensive versatility. Does talk about how Reddish could flourish with spacing around him.
