I need the Sox to draft this absolute freak in round 2 please. He's everything their system needs. He's an outfielder, he's an up the middle guy, he has power potential, he's a freak athlete. Need them to float him down to 41

There is only 4 outfielders on the list, that's a huge area that needs to be infused with talent system wide. There is only 4 INTL players that were signed by the Sox something that is being addressed and we should see the benefits from David Keller starting next year. But... This is the best the farm has looked in some time. Yeah it is missing the "star power" of the 2016 rebuild but this system has actual depth and there appears to be waves of talent not just a group of guys. Which is encouraging since Getz/Shirley/Janish are two years into rebuilding the farm.

I don't get why people are so quick to want to trade Sosa. Even with Murakami and to a lesser extent Austin Hays, this team needs all the power it can get. Sosa even with his flaws hit 22 homers last year, he has value.

Trying not to be hyperbolic but Fuller might be the most important hire the Sox have made in some time. Hope he stays for a long time, and hope the Sox let him add more people under him.

When you have your own network, every spring training game should be broadcast.

I get it this time instead of when Hahn did it in 23 and took Jacob Gonzalez. The 2024 Draft was Getz first draft, makes sense (somewhat) that a new GM would make the pick, especially when it was such a high pick. I do wish he listened to the scouts though. I would the farm system looks good considering that we're 2 year into a farm rebuild. Kevin Goldstein when he was at Baseball Prospectus said that it takes 3 to 4 years to rebuild a farm system. I agree that the one thing hold the farm back to having some serious depth, and some more upside is the lack of a good international operation that routinely turns out interesting prospects. Getz hired his INTL staff back in 2024, and their first class won't be until next year. One of the things that make the Dodgers and Brewers systems so good, is that routinely sign premium athletes in the international market and are able to develop them.

I like this move. Fedde is an arm that this FO (Bannister) has already had success with, they can probably get him back on track. They only need Fedde to last till the ASB or till when the younger arms are ready to get some starts in Chicago.

This trade leaves Andrew Benintendi as the last man standing for the Hahn/KW era. I wish the team ate some money to get a better prospect return. Luis Robert should be a lesson to GMs everywhere, when you start a rebuild it’s better to trade your premiere asset (2023 Luis Robert) coming off an hot season than not.

Good for him but that's kind of a bummer, I was hoping the Sox would hire him to the front office/player development staff.

I do not want Matt Shaw on this team. I don’t think he could stomach being on the south side anyway… for reasons. Plus, he puts himself before the team.

I said nothing political. Anyway, I hope all the players get out safely and their families are safe in this time of turmoil

I wonder how Trump’s distraction war will impact the Venezuelan market. Obviously my thoughts are with the people of Venezuela, and baseball isn’t important right now, but I do hope that the players were able to make it out in time.

I expect the team to sign another starter, and one or two players with experience in the back end of the pen. I wouldn't be opposed to the Soc reuniting with Kopech, he doesn't fit the culture/vibe they have now.

I’m not shocked they’re on the team, I’m more shocked that Benintendi is on the team still. Surely there has to be a bad contract for bad contract swap
