I thanked you for every single video u put in this thread and I will try to remember to trophy anyone else who does that too. Makes coming here so much easier than scouring the web. I also encourage others to trophy those members who provide things like this just as a courtesy. All it takes is a click as we get used to the new board. I know I appreciate a thanks every now and then as encouragement and it's such a nice thing to do that takes so little time. Sure thing! I figured since I normally see them as they come out, I might as well throw em in here for the people that will actually enjoy them.
July 17, 20187 yr Has there been a lower winning percentage than our DSL? 5-33. I know the answer may be them after tomorrow's game
July 17, 20187 yr Cardinals splitting their talent with two DSL teams have a combined 46 wins. Ouch! I think they were in the penalty phase on signings as well.
July 17, 20187 yr https://www.milb.com/milb/news/nick-madrigal-intimidates-with-bat-in-kannapolis-debut/c-286252246 Story on Madrigal debut. Entire OSU career, 40 doubles and 37 strikeouts. That’s a crazy-time stat.

Nope, we just had to draft the one of the best overall bats in the draft. Talk about draft suicide. My gawd we suck! Fuck it, I blame Kenny.

Madrigal is such a Grinder.

July 18, 20187 yr What's the deal with Jimenez's strikeouts? After tonight, he has 6 strikeouts in over 60 PA. Is this just a small sample size thing or has he really cut his strikeout rate that much between AA and AAA?

July 18, 20187 yr 13 hours ago, southsider2k5 said: How many first round picks were sent a higher level team? Looking at the top picks, narrowing even for guys who played in college this year: Casey Mize hasn't played yet. Joey Bart is at a half season low A team Alec Bohm is at a half season low A team Johnathan India is in rookie ball That makes Madrigal at the highest level out of all of the top five picks, as he is playing at a full season low A team. 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.

July 18, 20187 yr This thread is much better than the recap of the injuries in minors. I needed the positivity of our two best bat prospects!
July 18, 20187 yr Has anyone with the Sox commented on Fulmer's apparent move to the pen? Is this permanent, or temporary?
