  1. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 16, 2017 -> 08:28 AM) Welcome to the most bipolar thread in Soxtalk history. No prospects ever struggle.
  2. It's a shame Ozzie burned bridges, because him having a future lineup with Anderson, Moncada, Eloy, Robert, Rutherford, etc. would be really fun.
  3. QUOTE (Wanne @ Aug 15, 2017 -> 10:26 PM) Haven't seen anybody post that Jimenez and Collins got promoted to Birmingham today.....but they did. Future Sox board.
  4. So Trump is considering pardoning Joe Arpaio.
  5. When a BLM person walks into a white church and shoots it up or drives over a crowd of white supremacists, then we can talk many/both sides. Until then? Nah
  6. I'm a fan of the fact that we seem to be stockpiling bullpen prospects, because lord knows we'll need good relievers.
  7. QUOTE (WBWSF @ Aug 14, 2017 -> 09:04 AM) 1) Clippard was just moved to Houston. Another salary dump. The recent trades with KC, Yankees and Tampa Bay were nothing but salary dumps. The team traded Dan Jennings to Tampa bay for absolutely nothing. We now have Bummer as our only lefty in the bullpen. And he can't get anybody out. 2) I read yesterday that the White Sox are contemplating moving Avi Garcia and Abreu this off season. I have no doubt in my mind that both of them will be moved for prospects. More salary dumps. The team now has the worse pitching staff in MLB. Without Avi Garcia and Abreu we will have the worse offense in MLB And the lowest payroll in MLB. Except none of those were salary dumps.
  8. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 12:29 PM) Cause he is still owed $157 million through age 40 for the next 6 seasons. He is aging well so far, but it would be risky to take that deal on. His season is right now better than his MVP season. That's absurd. He'll make for a fun HOF argument.
  9. I expect wildcard contention by 2019. Better be in in 2020 and beyond. And JR just spent $50M on a prospect, so lay to the rest him not spending BS.
  10. At the end of 2015, Tony Kemp was the #10 prospect in the Astros system and #9 2B Prospect in baseball. Can play INF/OF and has put up great AAA numbers. Kinda sounds like Leury, who has been a great surprise this season. To get that for six weeks of Tyler Clippard? If that's who the Sox pull back it is an amazing deal by Hahn.
  11. If it's Tony Kemp that's an amazing get for a guy who was a salary dump a month ago and leaving in six weeks for nothing
  12. The GOP installed Jeff Sessions as AG. DeVos as Sec. Of Education. Gorsuch as a Justice. Trump needed the GOP for that.
  13. Also, can we talk about how heroic and patriotic those UVA students are?
  14. The Associated Press‏ @AP BREAKING: Vehicle plows into a group of counter-protesters at a white nationalist rally in Virginia; injuries unknown.
  15. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 11:43 AM) YOu can do both if you really want. He is a free agent in two months. Then yeah, best approach is here. If he likes working with Coop he might come back cheap.
  16. So at this point do you flip Clippard or try to bring him back as a flip closer next year (because I no longer trust Jones' arm)
  17. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 11:12 AM) That's some high praise. Thank you.
  18. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 11:10 AM) That's ReyLo. Hush, Anderson32
  19. QUOTE (ReyLo @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 11:07 AM) We are capable of losing 18 in a row so until we are in last few weeks I don't really care about losing Bmags why
  20. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 12, 2017 -> 01:02 AM) I don't care about draft position period. I want our young players to do well and for the Sox to win. This isn't the NBA. #1 pick or #3 pick...big whoop. Young players playing better advances our rebuild effort much more then the difference in a couple of picks. I'd still prefer the #1 pick, but if the young guys excelling moves us down to #2 or #3 I won't complain. I'd just hope Turang falls. If not, BEER!
