I know everyone is hurt, but what a lineup.

I'd never thought I'd see the day where Trevor Story isn't needed on the White Sox because Leury Garcia has now got his batting average up to .251.

I think Eaton is only around until Engel, Eloy, and Robert come back. I think Hamilton and what he brings to the club will stick around, and if Goodwin continues to hit, I think he's a fine 5thish OF type. Eaton is here because they literally need someone capable of playing in the OF, and with all the injuries, there just aren't all that many better options right now.

Hector getting got by an Onion-esque site clears that whole thing up lol. Someone initially sent that to me and I was so confused as to what was going on.

This is why you get the big Admin bucks my friend, well done.

Lol, what the hell even is this?

Strained right flexor pronator for Marshall. Going to need Soxtalk's resident doctor to chime in here and explain this situation to me like I'm 5 years old.

Posters advocating for actively trying to hurt an opposing player, Welcome to Soxtalk!

Up to a 958 OPS for the season, and after the big night, is now slashing .296/.344/.478 with an 822 OPS vs RHP.

Generally speaking, not a good sign.

They're definitely an intriguing club to watch with the mix of young talent they have there. I want to head out there at some point in the next couple years and hit all the Sox NC affiliates in one trip.

They were terrible in May, have been much improved in June. Looks like 2-22 in May if I counted right.

Injuries have really derailed him year after year. It's easy to see the tools when he's on a heater (and healthy), he has just never really stayed on the field all that consistently in his tenure here. Hopefully he's able to keep swinging it well and build up more value with the bat to get an opportunity with a rebuilding club. Can't really see him getting a long (hell, even a partial) look here in 2021 or once he's out of options.

Colas is sitting out because he's guaranteed a higher bonus in the next period. Teams weren't allowed to trade for more INTL $ and every team had most (if not all) of their $ committed by the time he was deemed eligible to sign. The trading intl $ for buyout coverage was back in 2019 (Nate Jones and Beef), and was/is still a very dumb decision that they made.

I agree that he phrased it as the Sox are trading for Eduardo (and that's how I interpreted it as well), but he went out of his way to type what he did instead of actually saying he was traded to the Sox. Like I said, he said it without actually saying it. Probably just splitting hairs over it, as we'll (hopefully) know the outcome soon enough.
