Slugging White Sox could be ready to eclipse Cubs
The guy pitched 28 games for the Cubs during the regular season and was flat out dominant. Without him, worse relievers get bumped up a spot and also accumulate more total innings. Nobody knows how that would have shaken out. Sure, Aroldis didn't have the best postseason. His numbers were by no means bad in the postseason, though. He pitched 15 2/3 innings, so he was getting worked by the Cubs. We also know how important good bullpens are in today's MLB. Look at how hard the Indians rode Andrew Miller. Trading for one of the most dominant relievers in the game was a no brainer for the Cubs.

The thing is, he didn't retweet it. He uploaded the photograph, so he had it in his phone, lol

How much longer do you wait on EE and Mazara?
100%. Yermin not getting a shot is borderline criminal. It's time to end the Edwin Encarnacion Experience

Jose Abreu Appreciation Thread
I've acknowledged how great Jose has played this year, but I just have my suspicions. I really want to believe he is doing it the right way, but it is just such a 180 turn. He is creaming 95 MPH fastballs up and in, when he used to struggle with 90 MPH heat up in the zone. Oh well. As long as the Sox are winning, I can't complain.

Jose Abreu Appreciation Thread
I wonder how often they are testing players for steroids during this covid season. Jose typically struggles with 90 mph fastballs up in the zone. Now he's turning on 95 mph heat up and in like he is prime Gary Sheffield. I want to believe, but it's just so implausible.

People always say he needs to "focus". Does the guy have bad ADD? Is it really his focus, or is it just because throwing a high velocity fastball and breaking pitches is just really hard to do consistently? He may just not have the control.

Brock Holt DFA
Mendick will get enough play time filling in for Moncada. He is a great super sub. Madrigal has a higher ceiling and will take over at 2nd when he is ready.
