  1. I'd have to take melke off your list and add Darren Erstad instead.
  2. does this mean a john jay dfa?
  3. I'm an Alex Call fan. Wouldn't surprise me to see him become a regular in the bigs. 2-2.5 war player sounds about right.
  4. If Santana simply returns to good health, he'll be infinitely more valuable in july than Dylan Covey. We might end up with a solid prospect if it works out. I'm bummed that we didn't get MM as much as any one, but this move isn't related to that. If EV is toast, the Sox cut him. No harm no foul.
  5. Future looks bleak and promising at the same time. Born a Sox fan and will die one. Probably won't give them any of my money for a while. We're at the same point as 1970-71 off season. Terrible team and ownership. Some very good prospects. Only hope is that team was 2nd best team in AL less than 2 years later. Is the next Wilbur Wood sitting in our bullpen right now? Will we trade a sore armed lefty[Rodon] for the best player in baseball? I highly doubt it.
  6. I love [orange] juice. Frank Thomas was twice the hitter this cheater was.
  7. I doubt that would happen even if he was only 95. Reinsdorf isn't that way and his family probably isn't either. Racism seems to run in families although not always.
  8. Never cared for Hawk. I always felt they should have dumped him and kept Wimpy.
  9. can't do it. Wilbur wood retired in 1979.
  10. Is it worth giving up anything for JP if we don't sign Harper or Machado? Next year we'll be either bad or just so-so with out them. Adding JP probably wouldn't change that. When 2020 roles around the outfield might start to get crowded as well.
  11. LA is a tough place to hit. Pollack should have signed with the Rockies.
  12. Sinclair deal falls thru. Cubs on espn 8 {the ocho} next season.
  13. The 1 thing that will make the Sox good in 2020 is bringing up 7-8 talented relievers in 2019 and let them take their lumps. We probably have more quality relief prospects than any team in baseball. With Dunning, Kopech, Cease and others joining the rotation in 2020, pitching could soon be a strength.
  14. dick allen,wilbur wood,oscar gamble,richie zisk and mark buerhle. in some ways wilbur wood was more than a baseball favorite. the knuckle ball almost seemed to make life more fair for guys who weren't born with much athleticism.
  15. Compare these 2 players since turning pro. I hope I am missing something with Walker, because Alex Call dominated Kannapolis at the same age that Walker couldn't hit .190 there. Call is considered to be better in the field than Walker is as well. Call has shown that he belongs in AA, and going forward he has a real chance to reach the majors. I don't know Calls best outcome, but his floor appears to be a productive 4th outfielder. I'll admit I don't know much about Walker. Was he fighting a minor injury after playing all year in college? Is that the reason for his unimpressive debut? If anyone has info for Walker please let me know. All I've seen is his top 30 page on white sox.com . Going by this limited info I would have kept Call and traded Walker to the Indians.
  16. Yuck, YA at 32 will probably be terrible. I know we had guys ahead of AC but he does have a chance to be a really good 4th outfielder. Dick Allen is right about Machado angle.
  17. If he is that cheap, he brings what Sale brought. The difference being Cleveland has better judges of talent.

    Rebuild

    6 years of this crap is almost more than I can handle. Next year looks terrible and 2020 who really knows. I've been watching for 50 years and the thought of 2 more seasons like this feels like a death sentence. I wonder what i'll feel like when my seasonal affective disorder kicks in.
  19. Would someone post some good news please? I wouldn't even care if it was made up.
  20. Fire everyone, including the janitor. We need new eyes in this organization.

    Sonny Gray

    Fulmer does blow, but lots of teams would be happy to have Kevan Smith.
