ELOY back Monday against KC
tray thinks Eloy is Alex Gordon out in LF, LOL. Dude wants him out there at all costs.

The Eloy-Vaughn-Burger-Sheets Conundrum
So you've got Vaughn and Eloy in the OF with Sheets and Burger platooning DH? Interesting

I'm officially the guy who never wants to give prospects up for anybody, even when necessary

Should the Goose Island Goose light up on home runs?
A replica of a slaughterhouse room from the union stockyards circa 1900? That has true historical significance, especially being on the southside.

7/18 Games
Pilkington's slider looks solid. Pair that with a 94-95 MPH fastball and supposedly a plus-plus changeup. I'm officially excited about him.

It feels like we're trying to make the stadium more like the mini golf course from Happy Gilmore. I'm all for it.

Lance Lynn locked up 2 years 38 mill + club option
Can @Vulture confirm this?

And that's a well pitched f*** the 'Stros 4-0 White Sox Winner!
I dunno. I'm not seeing enough drunken tweets bashing Benetti from NSC.

Burger called up
Look at the guys stats in A+. He's nothing special anymore. Sox have plenty of better prospects.
-
Burger called up
Yes, Joc netted such an elite talent in return
-
Burger called up
Ban bet that we get Escobar with trading Sheets or Burger. You think it costs both? LOL, sure dude.
-
Burger called up
Burger hasn't played 2B yet, so no, it isn't working. They'll trade for a 2B. They won't be going into the playoffs with Burger at 2B.
-
The Eloy-Vaughn-Burger-Sheets Conundrum
Sheets is an older 1B prospect with pedestrian minor league numbers. He's done well up here in a small sample size, but there is no way he nets a "huge" return. Zero. Ziltch.
-
Burger called up
You can't run out Burger at 2B and Sheets in RF during the playoffs. That defense is so bad.
-
The Eloy-Vaughn-Burger-Sheets Conundrum
When Eloy returns, what do? Eloy at DH, Vaughn RF and Burger or Sheets on bench (maybe demoted for one of them)? They could go with Vaughn RF, Eloy LF and Sheets or Burger at DH. They also may trade Sheets or Burger. Their trade values have definitely gone up since playing in the majors. Both look great.

Lance Lynn locked up 2 years 38 mill + club option
My only concern with Lynn is that now he has his big contract, will he let his body go?
-
7/17 Games
Sheesh, I thought I didn't see him in the box scores the past few days. I guess he has been playing though.

7/17- Astros at White Sox, 6:15
That's what I say. Don't bother trading for Gallo when you can platoon those two. Just isn't worth what it will take to get him IMO. Go for a 2B and relief.

I'm not sure he's anything better than a #3 without spider goop - 7/17- Astros at White Sox, 6:15
