    Way to move those goal posts. Nothing more entertaining than just hating on everything white sox on this  board I guess.

    The bigger question is why are talking about a dude every team passed on 6+ times. Want to comb through who should have drafted Bush? Get over it.

Probably Collins. 

No way.

Hes a 21 year old catcher who entered the year as Texas #24 ranked prospect. He had a great start to A ball where he was repeating a level and has regressed significantly in A+ with an OPS barely over 700 in 50 games. As a 21 year old collins had an 885 ops at A+. 

People sure love the unknown.

And Collins is a 24 year old catcher who is not even slugging his weight in the Show and will be back in AAA soon enough. Give me the upside of Huff all day.

That hamate injury sucks. He was set up for a big year.

Bottom line, collins outperformed your unknown in a similar amount of games, at the same age and level.. that is a fact. 

Why you think this kid would be better or progress better nobody knows.

Well one guy was a top ten pick and the other was drafted in the 7th round... 

It is pretty impressive that Huff is even playing in the futures Game. What have any Sox 7th round picks done recently?

No goal post moving. we just disagree on the value of Huff versus Collins. This board would be absolutely ecstatic if it was announced that Collins was dealt for Huff.

Why? Huff has never been the prospect collins is or was. Could he become one or better? Sure, anything is possible but he certainly isnt one yet.

Just because you watched a guy in a futures game today you think he is more valuable? Ok.

Have a good one.

Huff has been doing damage in the Sally and Carolina league. That is how he got on my radar. 

Let's check back in 3 years and compare Collins and Huff.

Um no thanks. 5% BB vs a 32.5% K rate. Unsustainable .375 BABIP. He’s going to be a 2 outcome player in the MLB if he even gets there. Sure let’s trade a catcher who earned his way to MLB for a flavor of the month who had one hot month.

There are plenty to b**** about White Sox player development but missing on Sam Huff is far from one of them.

It’s absolutely crazy that this is the guy someone is b****ing about.

Let's check back in three years in regards to Collins and Huff.

Please have the mortgage on your house paid off by then.

Not likely my friend. My house is in Chicago and my property taxes just skyrocketed.
