I didn’t highlight the Sheets portion of your post.  I highlighted the Julks portion.  And yes, penciling in Julks into the 2025 lineup last July was just as unreasonable then as it is now.

I really have no idea what you're crowing about at this point. Has Canaan Smith-Njigba withdrawn his restraining order?

And the Sox acquired him like I wanted.  But no where did I claim that he would be some superstar.  Just like last offseason, Getz should be acquiring former highly rated prospects around their mid 20’s to see what they may do, not the old veteran bums that he continues to waste money on.

But this is simply more of you manipulating history, just like you always do.  Notice how I post the actual evidence in the form of the posts that you actually made last year?  You just mostly spout BS and slant it in a way to make it look worse than what was actually said.

FYI — trying to praise almost every move a terrible team and a terrible GM make is not a very wise choice.  You will definitely end up being wrong far more times than being right.

So should they not hire guys to turn mediocre to terrible areas into potential strengths?

All I’m saying is by 2026, framing will not matter anymore, as balls and strikes will not be called by humans. Of course that is probably around the time the Sox will master teaching it to their catchers.

I can’t stop laughing at the idea that a thread was hidden because the admins wept at being owned

Calling Gavin Sheets a lefty bench bat and Julks a short side platoon corner OF isn't "praising". Again, you interpret people ignoring or not agreeing with your constant trolling as "praising" or fellating baseball players. I'm coming to the opinion that you're some sort of neurodivergent, and feel emasculated by somebody not praising you for your nonsense. You could solve a lot of this with 45 minutes a week talking to a professional instead of .... this. 

Framing will still matter because mlb is going to the challenge system, not robots umps. Sheets is not a good lefty bat off the bench because he lacks positional versatility, Julks is not a good short side of an outfield platoon because he had like a .580 OPS. That is all.

Yes. I noticed that comment too.  Please stop erasing threads that have his vast nuggets of knowledge.  You are stealing from the rest of us.  Where else can I read about how bums like Nicky Lopez and Corey Julks were improvements to the White Sox?

If that was true, there would be no threads on this site

That is 100% not going to happen by 2026.
