The Padres signed Machado to help their chances getting Yonder next offseason.

I gave up a dinger to a guy with the last name Nagina in college. Unfortunately not kidding.

His stock is up but how he performs in AA will mostly determine his ranking.

This isn’t true. Did you mean first Sox SS?

Lu Pantera

Mercedes is a 26 year old bat-only RHH in AA.

Didn’t you hear? One dog became a medical expert in the last half hour.

For inflammation?

Off the snide. Good to see.

Make it 7. Yikes.

Hopefully just a little blip and not lingering soreness or something.

Yeah he’s got an intriguing bat, but holy hell is he slow turning a double play. That could hopefully come with reps.

We should just save everyone the time and intentionally walk the leadoff hitter every other inning.

Only the White Sox could suck the fun out of a go-ahead home run

Rodón having a laugh after giving up back-to-back home runs and almost throwing the ball away on a pickoff move.

Scouting reports say his fielding is adequate but the metrics (limited sample of course) say otherwise. If a spot opens up I don’t see the harm in giving him another shot, see what we have in him now that he’s healthy.

Alonso, Colome, Herrera, Nova, probably McCann/Jay wouldn’t qualify as dumpster diving. They’re all getting paid at or above their approximate value.

Yolmer hit .315/.374/.395 at WS as a 20 year old. Madrigal (before tonight) is .281/.354/.351 at age 22. Still too early to be super concerned, but I think at least some concern is warranted.

Eloy in the OF reminds me of wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man.

If they wanted to trade Narvaez for a long reliever/swingman I’m sure they could have.

Literally? You’ve never seen a T-ball game? Those kids are brutal. As others have said, hitting isn’t easy. He’s a fantastic athlete, but athleticism isn’t a prerequisite for being a good hitter.

That was hard to watch. That poor kid.

It’s ridiculous how accurate this is.

Glad Heuer got a mention. Really like what I see from him.

Cordell not in the lineup for Charlotte tonight. Delmonico and Tilson are.
