Would rather have Whit Merrifield than Escobar myself. He should be available with the Royals plummeting.

Micker and a pitching prospect for Whit Merrifield. He's a good player and can play 2nd and OF. At 32+ years of age, he'll be useless by the time KC is good again.

Another HR yesterday. Slugging .530 at Birmingham is like .750 at Charlotte.

Jose is looking real badddddd.

Posted 2 topics about MILB players to keep my mind off the big club slump. This guys numbers intrigue me. Seems to know the strike zone really well for a 19 year old. Hits with some power and 6-0 on stolen bases. 3-4 years away ,but some one to follow as he makes his way through the system.

10 bombs in Alabama is pretty impressive. 10 doubles as well. After missing a lot of time, he may have turned a corner.

3 major injuries in 3+ years when you are young is a really bad thing. I'd say Nick has one chance left. If he gets even a hang nail after this, he'll never be an every day player again.

With Goodwin around, there isn't as much need for Leury. Mendick has shown to be playable in the OF as well. This is probably his last hurrah for the Sox.

He's not a bum. He's just young. Very effective in MILB. Sox used to lose to guys like him all the time. With our sh***y line up today, I'm not as confident as the bettors are.

Can some one win a silver slugger award hitting .154?

If the Sox win 1 of next 2 games, we should be satisfied. I've always been a greedy jerk though. I thought Lambert showed a little in the 2nd game. Still, he should have thrown a less hittable pitch on 3-2 to that lefty in the 2nd inning. 1st was open and the next batter was hitting .126.

The worst part is she still works there. 60 F**king years. They really do deserve our scorn for this. Some times people show you who they truly are, in the smallest of ways.

Tommy Edman is really lucky. If we played the Cards again tomorrow, he'd find out about another unwritten rule. The hard way.

Attendance would surge. Each fan guaranteed a home run ball.

Yeah, he's elite. Why don't we put him in RF and bring up Jake Burger.

He's working counts and hitting it hard. When they won't give in he walks to first base. YM's defense is really good as usual. When his doubles turn back into homers, he'll be a top 10 player in this league. I'm confident the homers will start very soon.

Add Jake Burger to the DH list. The guy had 2.5 years off, never played above A ball, and is now slugging .661 in AAA Charlotte

Is it lupus?

don't care about his homer total nearly as much as his walk total. nick could be really good if he walked 10% of the time.

Would like to see what Tyler Johnson can do.

Best change up I've ever seen DC throw to strike out tough lefty and end threat. Looked like GC was throwing a bit harder as well. Nothing to say about Bummer, except he seems to be stuck in auto pilot now.

Brian Goodwin is a good pick up. Hits lefties and righties equally well with some pop. Can cover center ok. Platoon with Engel, and platoon Leury with Eaton. With our pitching we'll be fine.

Mendick mania. Put him at short and Anderson to CF. Too bad TA is a star already. 2-3 years ago it could have happened
