REVERSE TEXAS

Timmy can bunt.

BULLET. DODGED

Ooof. Good play by the Tigers. Thought Timmy was going all the way.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 01:22 AM) I know you're just hating on Bossard because the White Sox are known for nepotism with draft picks (I can't believe this isn't a Matt post I'm replying to), but Bossard is a real prospect. Real good shortstop, strong arm, good speed, baseball junkie type. He was a decent high school pitcher, too. Could throw upper 80s. To be fair, he could come up, have a HoF career over 20 years with the Sox and he would still be our future groundskeeper.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 02:17 PM) Yes. Took him in 36th last year. Taken out of JUCO this time. Ah. Didn't see it was out of JuCo, so got confused. That'd be a nice get if he signs.

Wait. The same Michael Hickman...?

Best pitcher in the AL going tomorrow.

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 08:13 PM) Honestly, I'd give Adam Engel a shot since he couldn't do much worse than Jackson offensively. Defensively, he's ready for the job. Definitely not. Maybe if this were an extremely short stint, but not for six weeks.

s*** that was a good play. As long as Jose is ok.

Woah

ANDERSON THE SPARK

Anderson on track to bat 1.000 with the Sox.

Dear lord that was murdered.

s***

I am guessing since most of the admins now are continuously trying to pimp out their blog site that practice has been discontinued. You do realize those sites function in conjunction WITH Soxtalk, right?

QUOTE (BrianAnderson @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:49 AM) Saw somewhere that they don't expect him up until 2018 or 2019. Seems a bit slow for a college player. And one that is already disciplined. Hopefully that is more like late 2017. This is the fun time with prospects where we rush them to make our team better! (in our minds) Two years wouldn't be slow at all.

That was fast.

Hahn ain't f***ing around.

Light em up.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 05:57 PM) One of my friends has a 25 year old daughter living at home with no prospects of moving out cause she can't find a good job. I do feel the pain of Millenials in a lot of ways. They are inheriting a work force that a.) does not want to pay them medical benefits. b.) that does not want to ever give them performance bonuses or heaven forbid, raises in pay according to merit. c.) that requires overtime with no overtime pay, basically threatening them with termination if they don't play along and do the work for no extra pay and finally d.) they are the generation that in college was expected to do unpaid internships which should be illegal. If somebody does work, they deserve pay. So I ask ... can we blame Millenials for moving back in with mom and dad? Are there any hope for millenials that don't become doctors in terms of them ever making a fair, decent buck? Best wishes to all new grads BTW and best of luck in finding suitable employment! Also I would like to ask those Soxtalkers who have a say in management of their companies ... do you have unpaid internships and what is your justification for having kids come in and work for NO PAY? Unpaid internships anger me beyond no end. Pay The Worker, don't hide behind the fact it's an internship. Especially because some places have interns do the same work. An old place I was at tried to keep people as students as long as possible, then minimum wage interns with sporadic hours. Meanwhile the place I'm at now decided to go from $15/hr, 30 hrs a week to temp. salaried full timers. We don't get benefits as temps, but the pay raise is huge.
