QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 18, 2018 -> 12:40 PM) Looks like he got hit around hard though with 4 2B & a HR allowed. the HR was an inside the park HR. also heard there was a bunch of defensive "errors" that don't show up on stat sheet based off twitter reports but ruin the ER

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 7, 2018 -> 07:46 PM) Also 40 degrees in Chattanooga. Probably a good night to pitch. it warmed up to 40? I heard 32 and then with wind chill was below that. tough on all players I bet

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 23, 2017 -> 07:26 PM) I think Dunning is running out of gas at this point that's what was said about kopech too mid season

QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Aug 17, 2017 -> 01:16 PM) I've been saying it for a while, I think Eloy is he safest prospect in this organization. I have a hard time seeing him not put up Nelson Cruz (the younger version) type numbers. While Moncada has a spacious ceiling and could be a Robbie Cano or Tim Raines, he's just as likely to be come a Jurrickson Profar or Byron Buxton. I would be Eloy over Moncada in my list. safest as in becoming a star MLB player? safest as becoming average player? How would you rank Kopech? Safe as in a starting pitcher? Or just as a solid pitcher (relief or starter)? I would say with the adjustments he has made in the second half that he will be a pretty good pitcher. Now whether he is a starter or shut down pitcher in bullpen I am not sure

Kopech should start on the 18th

QUOTE (mac9001 @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 05:09 PM) Next in line for a promotion to AAA should probably be Jordan Guerrero. Given Stephens limited time in AA and the fact his peripherals are not conducive of his ERA it would be appropriate to keep him there longer. so you would hold him down for what might happen instead of what he is actually doing?

Yall's opinion on the haul? Eloy Jimenz Dylan Cease Matt Rose Bryant Flete

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jul 12, 2017 -> 10:53 AM) Matt Cooper too. he has been on inactive list for a few weeks now

I am glad some people are watching the game instead of just relying on box score. You can see a whole different story by watching

looking at milb.com and it looks like Adams has a good game and then implodes the next and back to 2 good games. His last 10 games ER have been: 6,2,1,5,2,0,7,0,2 and 5. I expect a good game today

yea I said same thing about burdi. He wasn't even dominating Hi-A. I heard his fastball is flat

Just saw Burdi was promoted to AA. Surprised they moved him up so fast considering he wasn't shutting down Hi-A hitters

saw this on twitter. Article on Jordan http://www.milb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=2...lb&sid=milb

Fulmer now has back to back 7 innings 0 ER starts. Hopefully something clicked and he is more consistent

Jordan Stephens has thrown 5 straight quality starts with a 1.74 ERA in those starts

So even though Burdi was drafted as a relief pitcher, most people still have him top 5? I figured relief would slide him down.

im rooting for corey. He is a really nice guy if you get the chance to talk to him.

Surprised no mention of Burdi yet: AZL White Sox: 1.0 IP 1H 0ER 1K Heard fastball 99-100 and change 90-92. Got the K on a slider

I read from this site often but just recently made an account. Yall do great stuff

Jordan Stephens added a new pitch http://www.milb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=2...lb&sid=milb

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 17, 2016 -> 01:09 AM) Spencer Adams has now started 19 games in A+ Winstom-Salem across 2015-2016... 19 GS, 117 IP, 126 H, 3.23 ERA, 86 K, 24 BB, 6.16 K/9, 1.84 BB/9, 3.58 K/BB, 1.28 WHIP Not dominating, but he's performing strongly and he turn 20 less than 2 months ago. I'm wondering if this kid could reach AA by the end of this season as a 20-year-old. That would essentially put him on track for the big leagues as a 22 year old. Obviously thinking far ahead, but it's still some encouraging s*** to look at when you consider he is still going to be behind Fulmer, Burdi, and Hansen. only thing is he doesn't get many K's. Yes a few games he does but mostly not. He is far head though as only being 20 and he is very efficient with his pitches
