It's not even close. Prospect crushes die hard.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if they move McLain to the outfield.

I don't think you can say Fletcher has to stay on the 40 man roster let alone play every day during the season.

"It is unknown precisely how many teams Sasaki met with. The Dodgers, Mets, Yankees, Cubs, Giants, and Rangers all reportedly received an in-person meeting with him. But there could be others. Wolfe declined to list any teams or provide a number during a webinar with reporters to update where things stand with the coveted pitcher." “The timeline for Round 2 is going to lead right up until he signs,” Wolfe said. “We’re still talking and having Zoom calls. So I don’t have a precise timeline for that, like we did for the meetings. Teams will be notified at some point if there’s going to be additional meetings or travel or something like that. But other than that, I don’t believe there’s going to be any specific timeline.” White Sox were mentioned 0 times in this article for those of you without an Athletic subscription.

The roster is worse than last year but they'll still win more than 50.

The org can't think this way but it's delusional to believe the Sox could unlock something with a guy like Lux or Outman that the Dodgers could not. Hi, Miguel Vargas.

This team is so far away I don't know if a 28 year old with 1 productive season and serious hit tool questions is worth prioritizing in a trade. I'd rather roll the dice on a 45/50 FV prospect than Outman, personally.

Luis Robert could have 2 weeks of team control left and I wouldn't trade him for 2 years of Gavin Lux. What are we doing here?

I know everyone has their favorites but the Lux fascination at this point in his career is bizarre to me.

Rodon's basically unhittable when he has good command of the slider. Great start for him tonight.

I don't think it's crazy to think Gonzalez can end up on the Bryson Stott, Nico Hoerner, Thairo Estrada, etc spectrum. That's not franchise altering but that type of outcome would make him the best 2nd basemen the Sox have had since Ray Durham.

The Sox developing any raw position player into someone who churns out 4 seasons as an above-average regular (2+ WAR) is unimaginable to me.

Gallo would be like a 99th percent tile outcome for Wolkow. That would be awesome.
