Never a big Hawk fan, but it did make me laugh every time he talked about PK running the bases with a refrigerator strapped to his back.

Man, I'm on fire all of a sudden. I just matched my post total for the last 3 months!!

I think JR and friends paid about 12 million for the Sox.

don't worry. you can just ignore it like a lot of other people do.

We could if we were in florida, georgia, south Carolina...….

If vaccine is done and administered by 4-1-21, they'll have record attendance next year.

is Schaumburg going to play games against other taxi squads?

maybe he's got the corona right now. if so, he'd be nuts to try and play.

I actually liked watching Parque and Sirotka pitch. Neither one had a ton of physical talent, but they both knew how to pitch. Both guys would jam anybody at any time.

Baldwin, Parque, and Sirotka were our big 3. Yuck!

what kind of arm surgery did he have? any one know?

stockpiling high end young pitching prospects. always a good idea because 60-70% of them blow up.

Vaccine

He's actually worse than the owners.

When teams signed contracts they assumed fans would attend games and spend money. A 100 year pandemic has changed all that. Players want full pay for each game played, even though owners won't take in as much per game(TV money only). This is an unusual problem, but not an unsolvable one. If each side gave a little we could start playing July 4th. If not, both sides will be blamed. That won't be good for any one.

Could still get 80 games in. Give players 80-85% of full pay and play ball. I hate the owners, but they will lose 20-30% of revenue with out fans present. Players should be able to see that. Just compromise and get on with it.

wouldn't change a thing. Pitching depth is the most important thing to have for development and trades.

Sox did great in that trade. Indians and A's, not so much.

I'd make the trade. No telling when baseball restarts, and Franco is younger.

Arizona in July. They'll have to play games at 3 AM.

I agree with your take on this. I think they will end up having similar results career wise for OPS. They'll just have different abilities doing it.

We are talking about Sam Long, not Codi Heuer.

Winston-Salem should be his first stop this year. He's an older prospect, so the Sox will probably push him up the ladder quickly if he does well. He faces a numbers game on the 40 man roster and could be subjected to the rule 5 draft.

I did the math. Him buying dinner for every one is like me buying you a snow cone! I remember Adam Dunn Suggesting to Scott Carroll a good restaurant to take his family and friends after his MLB debut. Carroll was a 10 year minor leaguer at the time. After dinner the waiter told him AD picked up the tab before hand. I know he flamed out early for the Sox, but lots of people have said he is a kind generous man.

If he hits like HK, I'll be really happy.
