  1. Please don't waste Nick Madrigals time playing at Kanny. He's better than that. Winston-Salem at least. Maybe Birmingham.
  2. I'm not sure it would be stupid at all. The collective bargaining agreement ends in 1-2 years and you can't assume the deal will remain the same. I'd just as soon bring him and Kopech and Stevens up. Let them play and learn while rebuilding interest in the franchise. P.S. Just release Adam Engel already.
  3. It's well known madrigal has the best hit tool in the draft and probably the best eye. His defense is very good already. He also has the highest floor in the draft. He should be starting at the highest level. Winston Salem sounds about right to me. I don't think it would surprise any one if he was our starting 2B April 1 2020.
  4. 1 simple question. Why is he at Kanny? 4th pick in the draft is wasting his time against lesser talent.
  5. 3 years from now we'll all look back and say Palka's throw was the beginning of the ascension.
  6. How about Soria and Matt Davidson for defense first catcher Carson Kelly. We already have Hit first catchers
  7. Think ahead to the day when we have a 3 game series with the Indians and our starters are rodon, kopech and dunning.
  8. The only announcer who ever made Hawk bearable
  9. Entire pitching staff for 3 hot dogs
  10. No, it really is a bad year for injuries. Maybe next year we'll just have a normal year for that sort of thing. One healthy year and we could add 10-12 new players to the major league roster.
  11. Manny Machado 3 homers in 1st 3 innings. Don't even remember the final score. I was finally able to convince my wife to leave in the 7th inning. Worst game I've ever seen In 50+ years. 1970 Sox were 56-106. These guys have a chance to be worse.
  12. I really have a hard time fathoming how bad Baltimore and KC are. Every time it gets tough waiting for 2019-2020, think about how you would feel if our farm system were like theirs. Then we would be bad and with out hope.
  13. Get his butt up here.
  14. The reason i'm not madder at Hahn is KW and Reinsdorf. All of the dumb moves reek of Williams trying to please JR and win now. When did Hahn actually start doing it his way? Did it start when he made Hostetler director of scouting? Every one of us has to admit when KW was in the draft room we were a joke. In the last 2-3 years we've made more good decisions than Kenny made in a decade.
  15. Another gem for BF last night. All he does is pitch his rear end off. It's good to throw 99 mph. It's better to get guys out. He's 22 and winning at AA. I think we may have a real pitcher here instead of a prospect.
  16. I'm actually just as interested in Flores' start as Kopech. One of the players I follow closely and root for.
  17. Not to change the subject, but if Avi keeps crushing it would some one make a fair offer for him?
  18. I 'm every bit as guilty as you on the Erik Johnson front. I once called up the score and argued for 10 minutes he'd be a star.
  19. I hope JA finishes 2nd and they pick Tim Anderson. Nothing against Jose but TA is our best player so far. I can't believe I just typed that.
  20. Sox had a catcher 20 years ago named Mark Johnson. I loved his patient approach at the plate. Turns out he took a lot of pitches because he couldn't hit.
  21. They are F***** for the time being. It's only my opinion but less than a year from now things will look a lot brighter. I'll admit it is going to be a long year.
  22. Mark Buerhle seemed like he had back end of rotation potential too. If you can get guys out there isn't a rule that says you can't be great unless you throw 96 mph.
  23. I think it's time to move Yolmer back to 2b. It's either that or send his ass back to Charlotte. Some one has got to get his attention and let him know he is no longer the chosen one.
