Just about ready to write him off as a capitol loss. 2 years of lost development has got to be tough to overcome.

8/28 White Sox vs Twins GT
I hope he catches every game left this season. Hopefully he'll help us land the 7-8 spot in next years draft. While we're on the subject. Is every one else happy to know, we never have to root for losses again after this September?

September Call Ups - Who gets the Nod?
the guy was hurt in spring training. Got a 2 week look and was sent packing. It really doesn't matter. we aren't good enough yet any way. but it seemed a little harsh. He did just fine last year.

Future White Sox Lineup #GetExcited
Sox should release Yolmer and have Leury start the year at second. Spend what it takes to get the best 2 year solution in RF. Skip Grandal and spend the rest on Pitching.

I've seen his swing in clips of games. He doesn"t have a ground ball swing

Sox aren't f***ing around this year. If they all kick ass, the Sox have more valuable trade chips or building blocks. If they stink it up, Hahn will probably be fired.

Tax day 2020
Don't talk about me like that. p.s. One time the boss told us he was gonna start paying us what we were worth. Some guy in the back grumbled that he couldn't make it on that.

Luis Robert and Nick Madrigal
Speaking about learning on the job. Has anyone else noticed Madrigal has really started to work counts and draw more walks? That's a pretty good trick when you've moved up 2 levels in 2-3 months.

Good comp for Lew Brinson: Joe Borchard

Fangraphs and Luis Robert
Whether BDB likes it or not, Probably half the people on the planet do that kind of thing. Sorting people by race, creed or religion saves lazy folks time. It also lets hate filled mooks think about others as less than human.

8/24 Games
Sam Long for Kannapolis. Probably the most interested I'll ever be over a 24 year old at low A.

McCann Extension
2020 McCann and Collins. Give Collins 40 games at catcher and 70-80 games at DH/1B. Lets find out if he can play MLB. 2020 is a potential wild card year. 2021 is a potential world series year. Its better to find out next year if he's gonna make it.

Free Agency - How confident are you?
Marco G. has pitched solidly for 2 years now, but in a smaller pack his home rum rate might double. If that were the case, he would have trouble just staying in the rotation. Remember he gives up more hits than innings pitched. Add a few taters to that and it could spell disaster.

The only caveat is 2017 is 3 years before 2020. He has been a stud for 5 years though.

I wonder if JDM would have Abreu like numbers if he left Fenway. That place is a hitters paradise.

8/23 Games
I hate to jinx him, but Steele Walker still hasn't made an error in his professional career.

Tax day 2020
Also the day when Madrigal and Robert arrive in Chicago. Throw Collins, Kopech, Vaughn and a couple of promising relievers into the mix. Shake with ice and serve chilled.

McCann Extension
Speaking of Collins. What happened to him the last 6-7 weeks? If he had a normal drop off from AAA to the majors, he'd end up near an .800-.850 ops. I kinda figured he'd end up being a poor mans Mickey tettleton, but who knows.
- Uh...Eloy?

8/19 Games
Sox in the hunt for one last top 10 draft pick.I hope the front office stays the course.One more solid draft should keep the pantry stocked for years to come.

8/19 Games
Zack Collins last 10 games: .459 5 dingers 12 rbi's. He has been eating his Wheaties.

Abreu “as valuable as anything” to Sox: Merkin
I'd extend him for 1 year at 10-13 million, and then thank him for his service. He's been good for the Sox, but his days are numbered. P.S. Throw him a Jose Abreu appreciation day. Heck of a good guy, and he deserves it.
