Youre talking like he's Jarred Kelenic or something

What the hell does Romy need to do to make it to AAA? Promote the guy already.

What's the deal with this Xavier Fernandez fellow? 26 year old catcher in AA. He measures out at 5'11, 245, which makes me think he is a chunker like Yermin. .372 OBP, 862 OPS, 8 HR.

A Scott Boras client taking a discount on his first big contract ?

Uh yeah, how often do we see athletes leave money on the table? Barely ever. Rodon hasn't gotten a big contract yet. He'll chase the money, and rightfully so.

Owners propose 180m luxury tax, 100m salary floor
Posted here because this is very important to the Sox given their competitive window. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/08/mlb-reportedly-proposes-180mm-first-luxury-tax-threshold-100mm-salary-floor-to-mlbpa.html 100m salary floor is good. 180m luxury tax is pretty abysmal. Can't see the MLBPA going for that even with the salary floor.

They have him plenty of starts. Anybody with working eyes could see how awful he was at framing. He coat pitchers plenty of strikes. The pitchers probably hate throwing to him.

Yermin retiring? Nope. Wait, maybe yes? Wait, he's active in Charlotte again.
Let his ass go to Japan. Dude is a drama queen.

He appears to be a 2 pitch pitcher right now. Fastball-slider almost exclusively. We'll see if he can keep it up like that.

Unfortunately, it's probably going to happen at some point. I can't see pitchers wanting to wear a facemask while on the mount. Easier said than done I'm sure, but pitchers need to do a better job of ending their pitching motion in a position where they can protect themselves. The obvious example is Maddux. He is one of a kind, though.- Vaughn's defense
This guy has gone from 1st, to RF, to LF, with some 3B and 2B in there. For a long time 1st baseman, his ability to adjust to LF THEN RF is astonishing. He may not be quick but he looks like a natural fielder. He's done absolutely everything you could ask him to do. It's a shame they couldn't extend him. Do you feel confident with him being the RF of the future now? Can Eloy-Robert-Vaughn work long term?- White Sox Winner: feel better Bassit!
Eloy takes a ton of pressure off Jose. Abreu doesn't play very well when the pressure is on.- 08/17 Game Thread: Oakland Athletics at Sox 7:10 NBCSN
Some god damn crack head stole the catalytic converter off my work car. Fuck- Tanking
Reverse draft order is an awful idea for each and every sport. Imagine the Dodgers getting top 5 picks and more money to spend on the draft every year. They already kill it with lower draft positions. This would make it even worse. Teams with low budgets would mired in mediocrity forever, unless they absolutely hit on most of their draft picks.- 08/16 Game Thread: Oakland Athletics at Sox 7:10 ESPN/CSN
