What? If anything, Javy Baez is a better player than Robinson Cano now. All I'm saying is, if people are going to bellyache about the rebuild, they might want to, you know, do any sort of research into the players we're disucssing.

You're severely underestimating how good of a player Javier Baez is. And if you were stupid enough to think "comparing tools" was the same thing as "This is the next Robinson Cano", you probably should go back to the Chuck'E'Cheese table.

Mad King. Done. Well deduced.

Okay, i want a downvote

Yeah, but it's a plus one, so your trolling is actually helping people. Good on the admins/mods

Meh, it's a plus 1

Screw confused trolls. Likes or nothing.

Can we just point out for sure who the "Confused Trolls" are?

Most reactions are just getting in the way now. Certain troll posters are "confused posting" everything and escalating the frustration in PHT in particular. Can't we just get "like" with no other options?

Honestly, the reactions are starting to ruin this board. I know it's not a big deal, but the reactions are clearly escalating the frustration and the stupidity here. My suggestion: dump "confused", just give us "Likes" and be done with it. Only positive reputation or nothing.

So the Twins rebuild was going well and it went south. What does that have to do with the ridiculous statement "The rebuild isn't going well"?

Third best farm system in the sport but "the rebuild isn't going well" Are people seriously reading these posts and saying I'm baiting?

I can't wear a White Sox hat in this town without some jerk in a Rangers hat bringing that up.

Good. Bunting is stupid 99% of the time. Hit the damn baseball.

How many regular season wins did the Cubs have after Theo took over? Think, dude. Use your head.

Exactly. This is exactly why you don't start drafting for Major League need. You amass the most talent.

You like, don't read about other teams, do you? You are completely unaware of the rest off the league? Worst GM in baseball? Please.

You're definitely right about the pitching situation. The Cubs might actually be getting to the point where they might regret some of the lack of pitching in their rebuild. They really have nothing to trade for pitchers anymore. I suppose for them the good news is they can buy pitching but even they have a budget.

Yup. You really can't have too many middle infielders. They can play almost any position. They're the positional currency of baseball.

It depends how you feel about KW and RH roles. Some of us believe KW let go of the reins years ago, others believe RH only got full autonomy when they blew it up and started moving players. I'm not sure how I feel, but what I do know is RH appears to be in charge now and throughout his tenure, he has been the best part of the front office. His talent acquisition has been spectacular so far and he was in charge of contracts under KW and the Sox are known for mostly good contracts.

He doesn't understand the aims of talent acquisition. He thinks every player we acquire must become a big leaguer next year.

What is it you guys say? Go Cubs Go, right? You and your little Cubbie crew aught to leave the White Sox discussion to people with real thought.

Trading a young MLB player with high upside for prospects is asking to be terrible. No matter what value he nets, it's doesn't add up. You gather prospects to get players like Moncada and they don't come by often. And unless your scenario is "Everyone in the White Sox organization not named Yoan Moncada is dead and we need to field a team", there is no scenario for trading an asset like Yoan Moncada this early in his career. This is some Wrigley Field level stupid right here.
