That will be it for Bauer. They'll probably bring in a LHP to start the 7th, so hopefully it will be Bonifacio batting for Johnson.

Next person who says "I BET SOTO REPLACES FLOWERS AS THE STARTER IN THE NEXT ___ WEEKS" gets kicked in the teeth.

 

Been wanting to say that for a while.

More sloppiness.

 

Specific hitters or pitchers being cold isn't a concern to me this early, but the bad defense and bad decision-making are. And yeah, that's at least partially on the manager and coaches.

Hat trick for Soto

 

I always love going on baseball reference and seeing his OPS jump from .739 as a 23 year old in Iowa (AAA) to 1.076 as a 24 year old in Iowa

So for 2 April starts as a rookie, you are willing to trade April, May, June, July, August, September and any postseason starts when he is 28 or 29?

As history shows you aren't trading anything if Rodon is the real deal.

What in the world are you talking about?

What? You are trading his 7th season for 2 rookie starts. History shows when Rodon is eligible to become a free agent, he won't be pitching for the White Sox.

I get the feeling you aren't exactly sure what you're arguing about.

 

If Rodon spends x days off the 25-man roster this year, then he becomes a free agent one year later. That's the trade.

Seriously, research what Boras quality clients do instead of believing in the myth

Our catching situation is pretty scary.

Even after the 3 k's today,

 

.292 2 hr 5 rbi in 8 games

 

Not bad.

 

It was less than 72 hours ago, Robin was an idiot pinch hitting for Soto.

The hitting has been good, it's the defense that has been disappointing from the two. Flowers looks like he's using a glove that not's broken in yet.

Then you need to articulate it, because nobody knows what you're talking about.

Which is what? Cause you aren't making any sense.

This is only the 8th game. I don't think the production continues.

 

Edit: and fathom is completely correct about the defense.

OK, I'll bite. What do they do.

They usually sign before the seventh year materializes.

He's trying to argue that the Sox should just give Boras the additional leverage of a year earlier FA because the history of other Boras clients suggests it doesn't matter.

 

It's a bat s*** insane argument.
