Sleepy Harold

Until proven otherwise I refuse to believe that he's not a ghost.

It definitely seems like the 78 site is getting prepped, saw people surveying out there last week and the storage are near the bridge seems like its being disassembled. Obviously that's the spot where the Fire stadium is set to be, but there's definitely some movement going on there.

So the Rockies will still occupy whatever slot they have, although they'll get skipped wherever they're drawn since they can't pick higher than 10. The Sox actually drew the 6th slot for the 2025 draft, but were ineligible there bc of the rules. Here's a snippet of the explanation with the link for the full article https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.mlb.com/amp/news/mlb-2025-draft-lottery-results.html

Up until very recently the Orioles never did anything of significance in the INTL market.

Nobody, the signing period starts on Jan 15 now.

BA's podcast today was just gushing over him being a legit 5 tool guy, sure would've been nice to have him in the system...

Konnor Griffin climbs all the way to #2, and I cry on the inside. Hagen slips to 78, but Caleb Bonemer is 71. Schultz (24), Teel (35), Braden (53) are the other White Sox on the list.

He's back at Kanny, been since early June. Was out for a while with a concussion from the spring I believe.

It certainly looks good!

The train I take multiple times a week runs on those same tracks in the image you posted, so I'm very familiar with the lot. I dont know that the topic is being "regurgitated" when another team in town announced their plans to build on the site the Sox have been linked to and are still linked to per their own management multiple times since the Fire's announcement. If they do eventually announce intentions to build there, that's the job of civil engineers and the railroad to figure out how/where to move the tracks, which they'd have years to accomplish.

I could've sworn you mentioned that you were done posting about this topic months ago. What does this add to the topic outside that you hate the idea of "the 78" for the 1,000,000th time?

Not sure how deep you want to dig in, but this is from today. An easier way to go game by game is here though, can click on the individual games and see what you're looking for.

Pre AZ work (AAA statline): 23 G, .149/.223/.255, .479 OPS, 6.8 BB%, 41.7 K%, .106 ISO, .229 BABIP, .225 wOBA, 20 wRC+ Post AZ work (AAA): 29 G, .270/.349/.550, .899 OPS, 8.7 BB%, 28.6 K%, .279 ISO, .343 BABIP, .390 wOBA, 125 wRC+ The ACL tune-up games are omitted bc who cares about those, but it's a significant improvement over the absolute train wreck he was in the early going. Hopefully he can sustain the success without HBPs getting in the way.

They aren't checking anymore for 100 level access so anyone is free to roam around down there on the concourse and whatnot.

26 y.o. southpaw, he's been awesome this year, especially since joining the rotation. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=palisc000jac https://www.milb.com/player/jake-palisch-669449

Yeah this would be for the next signing period.

Are you talking about this?
