He gets brought up and hardly plays at all then they acquire Reed for no good reason except the Sox had to have had Reed on their trade radar at some point in the tank/rebuild. Collins homered in his first at bat, didn't he? Instead of trying to ride that, they hardly play him at all. In another tank season, Sox should have had him get a couple months worth of at bats. He could split time with McCann and that'd be reasonable. Just release Beef or trade him for peanuts. The guy didn't see him at the airport. They were in Oakland. The earliest the guy who saw him at O'Hare last night could have seen him was probably around midnight. Ever been to O'Hare at midnight on a Sunday night? Unless you were on his flight, you weren't going to run into him.

July 15, 20196 yr It was incredible. A guy saw him at O Hare 3 and a half hours after their game ended in Oakland. I wonder if he still was in uniform. I am not on Twitter but that clown needs to be called out.
July 15, 20196 yr I wonder if that random dude genuinely believed some other random dude was Zack Collins. Edited July 15, 20196 yr by mqr

It's still very much in the realm of possibility, if not likely that Collins goes down for beef. I don't think they're going to carry three catchers AND reed.
July 15, 20196 yr If I was at O'Hare and someone told me I was being sent to Charlotte, I would be pissed too!!!

July 15, 20196 yr Why make up shit like this? I mean, I sort of got it when people were claiming to have seen Machado on a plane or at the Bears game, but we're talking about Zack Collins.

Collins is such a normal ass looking dude, it's really not hard to imagine someone mistaking someone else for him.

If this is indeed true (who knows for sure?) then that's another black mark on the drafting part of the front office. It would be another high first round pick that they missed on. How many mulligans does that group get before someone starts asking what is wrong? Fulmer, Collins, Burdi, Burger...

But why would that person pretend that they were Zack Collins and claim they were going to Charlotte? What are the odds that person even knows who Zack Collins is? Why did this person look upset/angry? These questions need answers.

I am not taking any sides here but just for kicks I decided to look up the #10 pick for the 10 years prior to Collins. 2015 Cornelius Randolph...OF in AA 2014 Michael Conforto...OF for the Mets 2013 Phil Bickford...P in A+ ball 2012 David Dahl...OF for the Rockies 2011 Corey Spangenberg...2B recently DFA by Brewers organization 2010 Michael Choice...P in the Mexican League 2009 Drew Storen...P who is currently a free agent 2008 Jason Castro...C for the Twins 2007 Madison Bumgarner...P for the Giants 2006 Tim Lincecum...P currently listed as a free agent

So I'll stand by what I said lol.

That's funny because I feel the same way about the guy in the Mexican League that Jack Parkman thought of Giolito last year. Get on the horn Rick...maybe we can trade Castillo and Jay for him.
July 15, 20196 yr I kind of knew that was fake because I'm like 90% sure the Sox fly in and out of Midway

There's that magic injury prediction device again.
