I hope Jerry shows this boy how shrewd negotiating is done.

    This reads like the kind of careful answer you give when you need to pretend he's not already your guy

  • This is the best news they could have received from these meetings. I do question Getz referring to it as an honor. Dude, it pretty much means your team really sucks.

  • Getz should get drunk tonight and sign an outfielder.

The sun will rise over the ruins, like a reassuring gesture. There will be no witnesses. And the solar system will be better.

Reminds me of the play Colson made during his MLB debut

 

Edit: Just rewatched it Colson's was way better

At least one of these other prospects will put on a show this season and provide the Sox with some leverage. Speaking of that, everyone is talking about Emerson, but the  physical projection of Lombard is crazy.

Monty’s catch looked like he had a little better angle on it. The Cholowsky catch was more “over the shoulder” perhaps. Both awesome of course

His swing ironically reminds me a lot of Justin Upton.  Still not sure how I feel about Roch’s exaggerated inside out swing at times.  I know that’s what they teach at a lot of training facilities now.

Roch! Roch! Roch and roll

That’s funny, I had the exact same thought.

They will prob be negotiating with Roch's agent, not the player himself.

Two schools of thought on making a selection - take the best available talent period...or also take the immediate and future needs of the team at a certain position in consideration.  So...the  WSox have quite a few excellent players and prospects that  play shortstop.  Given that, the Chowlowski / Lebron scouting becomes a bit more complicated and interesting.

Respectfully, that's what got us Jacob Gonzales.

No, not having an international pipeline, then taking first basemen, 2nd basemen, catchers with known flaws and relief pitchers with the first round pick for years is what got us Jacob Gonzalez. 

Haber is the reason Jacob Gonzales was drafted.

A head scratching pick no doubt, but that has more to do with the player and the Sox decision making than anything.

NOT AT 1-1
