Sunday at 08:16 PM1 day May be about time to shut down Oppor. One thing I picked up at Spring Training when chatting with some of the families of minor leaguers: they felt like Christian was fundamentally a good kid, but also that he was perhaps arrogant and not easy to coach. That said, they thought he had noticeably grown up so maybe that's not such a live issue anymore. Either way, whatever he's doing right now is really, really not working.
Sunday at 08:22 PM1 day WS home broadcast followed this up by echoing my own thoughts on how much more dynamic this offense is compared to previous years.And then DePino hit a HR lol
Sunday at 08:58 PM1 day Just as Gonzalez's season numbers were returning to his norms, he nudges them back up. And that one was no cheapie whatsoever. At 107.3mph, I wasn't 100% sure he had a swing that could hit a ball that hard in the air. Good for him, I hope he's figuring something out.

Sunday at 09:42 PM1 day Braden has been killing it from the left side this year. Promote him to AAA already and move Bonemer and Shelton to AA

Sunday at 09:49 PM1 day Braden has enough whiff in his game that I really worry about the consequences of being too aggressive promoting him. Not to mention that you want to give him reps from both sides of the plate. Entering today, he only had 6 plate appearances against left-handed pitchers all season.

No rush on promoting him in my opinion. And whatever time he has left in the minors, I'm fine with 75%+ of it being in Birmingham anyway.

We're the f'ing WHITE SOX. We don't pamper these wimps by forcing them to do a year+ at every level. We throw them to wolves and let them sink or swim.Call up Braden and let's see if he's got the stones to make it in this league. Edited yesterday at 04:39 AM1 day by ron883
