The worst game attended during the worst season in my lifetime as a Sox fan
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.

Race for the worst 2018 record (Top 5 pick) again
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.

Race for the worst 2018 record (Top 5 pick) again
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.

Bernardo Flores
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.

Trade Deadline
Not to change the subject, but if Avi keeps crushing it would some one make a fair offer for him?

Irrational fondness of a player who completely sucks
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.

Jose Abreu leading vote getter for ASG AL1B
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.

Irrational fondness of a player who completely sucks
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.

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.

I think I'll have a drink or 3 tonite.

Do the White Sox have too much starting pitching?

Fangraphs Top 131 Prospects List
It might be a good time to try and get Carson Kelly. Cards are down on him and he hasn't hit in the majors yet. We possibly could get him cheap and his defense is good. You never know about the bat, but his MLB hit sample is so small that he could end up being OK with the bat.

Spent 5 minutes checking player results and stats this morning. WOW !! Man are we loaded.

Gotta feeling we'll be picking 7-8. Eloy will be up soon, plus the rotation and bull pen are improving whether we bring up Kopech and Stephens or not.

White Sox Prospects of the Month, May 2018
I would have picked Stephens and Collins. JS is as ready for the bigs as he'll ever be.

2018 White Sox catch-all thread
Rodon sharp again last night. If he comes up and pitches well and we call up Stevens and Kopech, the second half of the season would be fun to watch.

2018 White Sox catch-all thread
Also my favorite WS. If he were traded now I probably couldn't watch an inning until we get good again.
