How can you like Puig?

How can you like Puig?

 

 

If it was for charity or off the field work, we'd all be picking Hector Santiago or Mark Buehrle.

 

Puig's one of the most exciting players in baseball to watch, it's hard to argue with that point.

Kershaw

Trout for sure.

 

But I love me some Dexter Fowler.

 

Shockingly Adam Eaton would've been on this list too.

 

Buster Posey. Love that guy.

 

I think that wraps it up

C - Posey

1B - Miggy (Goldschmidt is catching up)

2B - Kipnis

SS - Altuve

3B - Longoria

OF - Trout

OF - Fowler

OF - McCutcheon

SP - Kershaw

CL - None. They're a dime a dozen

Trout and Ellsbury. I like Kipnis, too.

SP- Kershaw, Lincecum, Weaver, Bronson Arroyo, Lester, Beckett

RP- Papelbon

C- Salty

1B- Trumbo, Napoli, Hart, Overbay

2B- Pedroia

SS- Hanley Ramirez

3B- Wright, Punto

OF- Crawford, Ellsbury, Hamilton, Kemp, McCutchen

DH- Ortiz

If you couldn't tell, if I didn't love my ChiSox so much (at times, unfortunately) I'd love me my BoSox

Too many...

 

Andrew McCutchen, Pedro Alvarez, Starling Marte, Jose Fernandez, Julio Teheran, Taijuan Walker, Michael Pineda, Mark Trumbo, Matt Adams, Yasiel Puig, Yoenis Cespedes, David Price, Felix Hernandez, Wei-Yin Chen, Adam Jones, David Ortiz, Justin Masterson, Danny Salazar, Vidal Nuno, Alfonso Soriano, Chris Carter, Brian Dozier, Hanley Ramirez, Anibal Sanchez, Miguel Cabrera, etc

 

Prospects I like: James Paxton, Miguel Sano, Eddie Rosario, CJ Edwards, Tyler Glasnow, Javier Baez, Carlos Correa, Archie Bradley, Noah Syndergaard, Robert Stephenson, Alen Hanson, Phil Ervin, etc

 

If they weren't White Sox players: Jose Abreu, Chris Sale, Jose Quintana, Dayan Viciedo.

Votto, Stanton, Lawrie, A. Simmons

Since the OP asked "Who is your favorite player" and not "Please post a long list of players that no poster will actually read through" I'll stick with one.

 

Clayton Kershaw.

How can you like Puig?

 

I love Puig. The dude is an absolute animal.

I like Giancarlo Stanton - (name change not counting)

 

The guy had Ozzie as a manager, then when all the good players were sold off, he stayed and played and never complained about it.

 

I also like Fat Fielder. Nothing about his body tells you that he should play baseball, but he still runs his butt off and plays his butt off for his team.

Man, Soxtalk is some front runners

Because I'm somewhat of a Brewer fan also, I've liked Overbay, Lucroy, Sheets and Jenkins quite a bit over the years.

Fun fact: Brett Jenkins, the brother of Geoff Jenkins, was an instructor at a baseball camp I attended. He looked almost exactly like Geoff.

Carlos Gomez, Curtis Granderson, Brad Ziegler.

 

Hawk, is that you?

We have plenty of mediocre favorite Sox players; I see nothing wrong with enjoying watching the best in the game ply their trade.

Bryce Harper

I'm surprised none of you guys are worried about Salvador Perez and list him as I did. He's scary good and could dominate our baserunning theft attempts for years to come. I hope Coop figures a good way to pitch to him cause I think he's a star (if he stays healthy). If Sox had a catcher like Perez I think Sox would win the division this year. The black hole at catcher for the Sox really is a killer.

One player does not a division winner make. Yes, there is a hole at catcher, but we've been over this many times. Who can the Sox realistically get to fill that hole for years to come? And to say adding one player is going to win a team the division is ridiculous. The Sox aren't one player away.

 

Perez is a great player, just ask Hawk. And he may very well play hell on the Sox's baserunning. But he doesn't play for every team. He plays for one team. I'm not saying they can ignore him, but there are so many other players on a bunch of other teams that the Sox will need to take note of. Just like the Sox have a few players that other teams are going to have to watch out for.
