These are great days we're living bros

Unless a miracle happens in the next week, it looks like we will have another Writer's Strike. http://variety.com/2017/film/news/writers-...ion-1202393874/ Curious to see how this will affect some of the big films in development, especially the DC, Marvel and Star Wars film. My friend who works in Paramount said that a lot of scripts have been turned in 'half baked'

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 09:38 AM) He isn't a baseball guy, so he doesn't have much to add in that regard. How many PBP guys are baseball guys? And Bennetti did a lot of work in the minors as a broadcaster and that is a tough job because the people in that role are essentially the team's PR person. I would say that he's pretty qualified.

Did anyone notice Michael Stipe in attendance?

I wake up everyday and thank God/Allah/Xenu for the Sox not signing Alex Gordon

QUOTE (turnin' two @ Apr 23, 2017 -> 04:52 PM) Plus, no one would care. At all. Except the guy who called it, I would imagine.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2017 -> 08:25 PM) As a few on here predicted, Franklin Perez is blowing up for Astros. Tucker off to huge start also I don't want to be the guy that reminds everyone that he called for the Sox to demand Perez in any trade involving Q with the Astros as far back as the Winter Meetings. I'd hate to be that guy.

I hope no one here was stupid enough to think that every prospect (especially the ones acquired in the past year) was going to breeze through the system without any experiencing any hiccups.

Trying to find video of Adam Haseley

Moncada is BLAZING hot at the plate.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 07:08 PM) Jose having a nice game, offensively and defensively. Seeing the ball well on both sides of the field. Abreu has been making contact when he gets his pitch, he's just been having some bad luck. He's one of the leaders in strike zone contact so far. He's been looking frustrated at the plate but I expect to see him normalize real soon, especially as the weather heats up

He may not be getting anything to hit, the Athletic said something to that affect in their report from WS

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 19, 2017 -> 09:34 AM) Different since 2012? I have my doubts When is the last time the White Sox took a high school position player and successfully got him to the major leagues? Yes, it's almost an entirely different development staff and scouting department since then. Can't doubt fact.

You could argue that the Sox were/are prepared to go all in on Robert since they aren't attached to any of the top (according to BA) J2 guys.

Terrible call on Castro. He absolutely went.

Please see more pitches.

No way was this going to be easy for the Sox. If the Sox get a workout, I think they'll do everything they can to land him.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 01:01 PM) I think we knew we had at least had Josue Guerrero rumored at this point. The only guy that I knew about at this point was Mieses

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:53 PM) Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but where have you seen this? Baseball America

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:07 PM) A lot of people think our window to contention is going to be really short. I don't subscribe to that and I believe Hahn when he says that things are not going to be rushed.

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 12:13 PM) I am not against a high school player at #11 overall Adell's hit tool scares me, as I think of when the Sox drafted Courtney Hawkins as the toolsy high schooler out of Texas The hit tool never came around and now Hawkins is essentially a non-prospect I think the Sox will look to a college position player or pitcher for the first round That was a different org, lots of new people in the development department

QUOTE (steveno89 @ Apr 18, 2017 -> 09:34 AM) Jordon Adell scream boom or bust prospect, I'd almost rather go with a closer to the majors talent that could help us sooner rather than later If you are rebuilding, why are you looking for players who are closest to the majors? That doesn't make any sense to me. The Sox need to add as much talent into their system as they possibly can. So that means they should be looking at guys with high ceilings, Adell certainly has one of the biggest.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 17, 2017 -> 06:52 PM) Another weak Anderson pop up. Another sophomore tank for the Sox? Ridiculous
