His value has to be sky high at the moment. I agree with you. Engel has been so damn good, just ride with him the rest of the year as the RF starter. Focus on 2B and relief pitching.

Most people that don't like him haven't looked up his stats this season.

Mods, please check into this ASAP. This is a Soxtalk emergency. It will require some of the brighter minds, so leave Kyyle on the sidelines for this one.

Dude, just look at his tweets. He sounds like a complete meatball. There's no way that guy is reliable.

Trade Deadline Thread
These fake insider people are catfishing a large group of people, in a sense. They crave the dopamine release from people saying thank you and kissing their ass. Hell, NSC blocks anybody that doesn't praise him or believe in his rumors. The guy is looking for constant praise over completely fabricated ideas. It's pretty sad when you think about it.

ReyLo skipped at AAA: Spot start? Hug watch? stayed tuned
That would simply be a no brainer for the Sox. ReyLo is most likely done for, and Adolfo needs to be on a major league roster next year but is definitely not ready for it. I think they'd be looking for a different type of piece, personally.

Hell yeah, thanks for the update Jimmy. I found this article from South Side Sox. Don't know much about the author (he writes for Southside Sox, hosts the Locked On Brewers podcast, and seems to follow the braves system as well. This dude follows many teams apparently), but he says Pilkington has a plus-plus changeup. Great to hear he is doing so well. https://www.southsidesox.com/2021/6/22/22536031/konnor-pilkington-white-sox-the-best-pitching-prospect-nobody-is-talking-about

7/15 Games
Pilkington with 58 Ks to 51 IP, 0.97 WHIP., 0.175 BAA. He's 23, so it's not like he's too old for AA. Has he put himself on the map as a legitimate prospect this year? His stuff always seemed underwhelming from reports. Impressive numbers.

I dunno. You deny it pretty hard in every post, and I've seen you edit this post of yours 4 times so far. Seems suspicious.- Yoan Moncada should volunteer to play 2b this year
Was Jack in favor of moving him to 2B? I thought he just was disappointed that he isn't a superstar.- Yoan Moncada should volunteer to play 2b this year
Moncada is a creature of habit. He also winces almost every time he runs the bags. I don't want him switching positions mid season and having to move around more and make more plays in the field.- ELOY back Monday against KC

I think you're right. I did some digging, and he did post Al's a lot and defend him a bit. His posts line up with Als tweets too, lol. Shame, I liked Orlando.- Trevor Story

1-3% of what he talks about happens. Y2jimmy is a guy who I totally trust. He rarely says things are a done deal, but when he does, he is right. He also doesn't spit out rumors 24/7. When he does, I believe him. He's got the track record.- Trevor Story
But to your point, these guys are so obviously fake. If NSC isn't BSing most of his "rumors", then he has deep connections with multiple front offices and multiple agencies. Its just complete bogus. If he did have connections, he would have severed them long ago by constantly posting rumors.- Trevor Story
Maybe he will drag us over the coals on Twitter. "Baron and ron883 of Soxtalk are chumps"- Trevor Story
Is this finally an admission of guilt, maloney?- Is it time to give TLR his due? And maybe some apologies?
TLR was without question the right choice as manager. It's simply incredible what he has done with the team. Even @Tnetennba can't deny it anymore.- Trevor Story
No. This was when there were tons of rumors that Dane Dunning would be traded. NSC told Passan than "Dunning will be traded." Dunning ended up being traded that day. Passan said well done to NSC, and told NSC he could break the news of the trade. NSC didn't know who the trade was for, so he never broke it. Passan ending up breaking news of the actual trade. NSC either got lucky with saying Dunning was getting traded (he throws a lot of shit out), or maybe he knew a source close to Dunning. That's all NSC has gotten right. He didn't even know the full trade.- ReyLo skipped at AAA: Spot start? Hug watch? stayed tuned
Speak for yourself. I have no regrettable posts.- ReyLo skipped at AAA: Spot start? Hug watch? stayed tuned
I will check with the reddit neckbeard community and report back on this- ReyLo skipped at AAA: Spot start? Hug watch? stayed tuned
To be fair, reddit is generally a bunch of incels looking for the next thing to get outraged about- More Moncada hot takez
They have Devers at 3rd and won a world series after 2 dominant seasons from Sale. I'm sure they feel fine about it. - ReyLo skipped at AAA: Spot start? Hug watch? stayed tuned
