Mendick makes that play

Ruiz has been fine this year

What happened to Grandal's framing?

Too bad @Jack ParkmanParkman turned the game off

He's strictly a 10th inning pitcher

Feels like Madrigal has been underwhelming lately

Lol one bad start after some great ones and Cease is losing his job?

Why send him?...

My two dogs are named Wrigley and Addison. Will post pictures soon.

Is there any way I can convince you to bump this up to a B+?

Don't the owners have the government in their pockets? They got Congress to pass the Save America's Positive Act. You're telling me Jerry can't get Cespedes' Visa on the fast track? Get it done already!

Tony's got it so hard. He's leading the team with the best run differential to 1st place. The White Sox have a +53 run differential. Next best in the ENTIRE league is Houston/Boston with +33. The next best run differential in the division is Cleveland with a +15. The Sox are only 1 game ahead of Cleveland, despite the huge discrepancy in run differential. To do what he has done with his team playing so poorly is simply masterful.

https://blogs.fangraphs.com/fangraphs-power-rankings-may-3-9/ Tied with the BoSox! Go Sox! It also says the team should realistically have 3 more wins/3 less losses.

With Vaughn hitting, Engel returning, and Mendick being passable in the OF, you simply wait. The pitching is good enough to carry the team while Robert and Eloy are gone. Simple as that.

Props! However... I must point out that I was first on the Benyamin Bailey train, and 2nd on the Yermin train. I'm gunning for Jimmy's position over at futuresox.

Maybe you and Tony shouldn't have deleted his NBA thread. What goes around comes around.

I forgot about Hamilton too. Lordy, get both those guys off the team.

Totally forgot about Lamb. Good point. Get him TF off this team. Engel's return better be the death of his roster spot on the Sox.

Agreed with brijames. Zero reason to trade for an OF yet. Mendick looks OK in limited play time. Just gut it out with Leury until Engel gets back. The true question is what to do if Mendick keeps playing well and Eaton keeps sucking. I guess they will option Mendick once again to make room for Engel? It sucks, but there isnt much room on the roster. We may see Eaton as the odd man out when Robert and Eloy return.

https://blogs.fangraphs.com/nick-madrigal-is-good-can-he-be-great/ Good article on Madrigal. He's a good player currently. His 20 grade power and lack of walks holds him back.

All this talk of trading Yermin this offseason... If Abreu keeps playing horribly, they need to keep Yermin on the team. Jose literally can't catch up to 91 mph heat in the stroke zone.

Mendick is a heck of a utility player. I hope we see him in the OF more often. No more Hamilton, please.

He executed perfectly yesterday on a sacrifice fly. He actually crushed the thing. Anyway, the stats say otherwise. He is an above average offensive player currently based on wRC+

Feels like Vaughn is always down 0-2

That's it, Yermin is hitting for the cycle
