ESPN article by Phil Rogers on sox farm system

 

I loves me some Stew.

The TRUTH about the White Sox farm system lies somewhere between this article and whatever Flash/Quick have to say.

I don't know what would be worse if Thome gets hurt: the fact that Thome would be hurt or the fact that KW would trade 2 or 3 more prospects to get Everett back for the 3rd time.

lol wow getting Everett again. Why don't we just get Roberto Alomar out of retirement and make it complete.

Just waiting for the Matt Garza >>>>> Lance Broadway post now.

I can agree with this. Is our farm great right now? Not even close. But it's nowhere near as bad as Tizzle/Quickman make it out to be.

Owens and Stewart are talked up too much in the article. Sweeney even a bit too. All the pitchers mentioned are doing well in their leagues and Fields is tearing it up in the IL. These guys can help in the future. The pitchers are very expendable and if the Sox makes move this trade deadline it will involve one of the pitchers for sure.

Most of them are good trading chips.

you listening roberto alomar and evertett and blum

If I hear a Carl Everett joke like that one more time I'm gonna flip s***

Here is an article from ESPN.com...not sure if this was already posted. Basically it breaks down how good we look for the future. I also saw that ESPN ranks Josh Fields as the 4th best minor leaguer.

I wonder what this means for Crede. Trade? Move Fields to first? Can't do that with Paulie.

 

We have an interesting dilemma.

Left. Field.

Relief Pitcher.

Or maybe SS to replace, as John Miller from espn would say -- Oooribe.

That is what i was about to say.

Unless all my Spanish teachers were wrong, Jon Miller's the only one that does say Uribe's name right. However, we'll never know, because no one can understand Juan.

I say 2B.

That was Baseball America's Prospect Hot Sheet which ranks the hottest minor leaguers, not necessarily best.

I dont know, it seems to me that Rogers is just saying that Stewart can replace Widger as a backup catcher, which he certainly can. I dont think hes trying to make the claim that hes a future star.

Owens is an interesting story. I think that he will need all this year and al next year in AAA but I think he will have a big year in AAA next year, but whether he can ever hit in the majors or not remains to be seen.

 

Can we move Josh Fields to left field?

That remains to be seen, but my point was that Rogers made it sound like the Sox had a lot of great talent in the majors. We have a lot of pitching depth and prospects close to the bigs, but nothing all that much better than most of the rest of the teams out there. A lot of teams have guys like Owens and Stewart, they aren't all that special. That's what I was saying.

I hope the article is accurate. It sure would be nice to be as set up for the future as they make it seem.
