The other team is just about the worst in baseball. Have a feeling this perception is about to change next season when Eloy is posting rookie of the year numbers and TA/Moncada are a solid middle infield combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Did Engel steal from of the hall of fame retirees talent or something like the Monstars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I was f***ing harsh on Engel but he’s been remarkable. He deserves to begin 2019 as the starting CF’er. With his defense and speed, if he hits just .250 he’s valuable as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footlongcomiskeydog Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 2 minutes ago, fathom said: but he wasn't, if I recall. Moncada was the higher rated prospect. He is also over a year older. Moncada=31 million dollar signing bonus. Torres= 1.7 million signing bonus. Makes perfect sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torres was #2 at one point, ahead of Eloy and behind Acuna. Btw, do we have a way to insert a Spanish n with the tilde? I'm a grammar person and it bugs me.
