I wish

1 double and 1 triples in 17 games, lol. BABIP must be on his side. I'll take it, though. He's barely striking out and is walking enough. Paddy says he has power. Hopefully it develops.

Talk to WelcomeSox!

This Manuel Guariman fellow is a 17 year old catcher in the DSL and is posting a .404 avg, .483 OBP and .462 SLG in 17 games. 6 BB, 9 SO in 58 PAs. Pretty impressive. I recall Benyamin Bailey putting up similar stats at 17 in the DSL though, so I'll temper my expectations. Edit: he's a $500,000 signing from Panama. Same place Bailey is from. Those Panamanians know how to take a walk it appears.

Is Gordo still calling it? My favorite was when he brought up the story about how Paul Walker paid for the wedding ring of a random person he saw in the mall, but the story was just heresay. Wasn't sure if it was true or not.

Ricky Renteria's use of the guy was sadistic. I'm pretty sure Ricky is a masochist.

Kimbrel won't become the closer until he donates to Tony's animal rescue foundation

It's never the player's fault. it's always Tony's fault.

Dude is coming off a serious injury and has been grimacing this game. I know all the backseat managers know best here, but that is probably why.

Konnor Pilkington continues to dominate AA. He's got a .95 whip, 10.8 SO/9. I thought it was an overpay then and I think it is an overpay now. Could have gotten Escobar for scraps.

Kelenic with a robust -1.0 fWAR

Pilkington continues to pitch very well in AA. The Sox had a shit trade deadline.

Don't say that

Gordon Beckham getting these announcing gigs is pure white privilege. He sucks

Pito padding his defensive stats again. Calls everything and anything.

Just call up Romy to replace Mendick please

It's too late. The Sox will be stuck laying his 5m buyout. Garbage fucking player.

Yet we still have people posting how worried they are about his future 24m yearly salary, lol

Yep, I meant to say disagree

Moncada is worth 3.2 fWAR at this point through the season. Going by what fangraphs deems 1 fWAR is worth, he has already been worth $25.6 mil this year. He'll be a 4 WAR player this year. Why are we talking about him like he is complete shit?

Can you imagine the White Sox record if Soxtalk was managing the team? 10 more wins, at minimum.

I think he was being sarcastic

I disagree with Montgomery above Burger. Jake Burger missed significant time with the Achilles tears. He went from. A+ straight to AAA while missing 3 seasons. In AAA he's got a .900 OPS with power. The guy is a natural hitter. He can play a good enough 3rd to stick there in the majors. Jake seems like a lock to be a major league player, at least. He can maybe become an above average hitting 3B with power. Colson has the higher ceiling, but his floor is much, much lower. He's far from a guaranteed thing at this point. The chances of Burger being an MLB contributer are higher at this point. I've got Jake above him.

Put him on the Yankees and he's a lock for the top 100

Do you have a picture of Tony on your dartboard?
