  1. Since he went there, it’s 12 strikouts. And we’ll throw Riley Greene at you as well https://mobile.twitter.com/GetRealOddsMLB/status/1373636764234100736
  2. A pulled hammy causes Cheesy Beef’s red phone to ring? But I will say since the subject of right field is brought up, that Blake Rutherford must really be a lost cause. He is never in any conversations about getting a shot.
  3. in a normal season, at least he would have had a chance to recover.
  4. From what I’ve been reading about a week ago, he has been. And he thinks he solved it a little at season’s end
  5. Check that, curveball? Albeit a mistake. Robert hitting breaking balls this year uh oh.
  6. Just noticing that everybody is up in the dugout for a spring training home run
  7. In before “concerns” . But seriously, none. Another day where the pitchers that count do their jobs is yet another good day.
  8. the Sox suck at prospect for ml talent trades?
  9. TLR is certainly getting Giolito a lot of work this spring. But we need to he seeing more Cease and Rodon. Kuechel? Guess Kuechel has achieved his status, but he needs work too. keep waiting year after year for Adolfo to be somebody. Ah well, probably not happening.
  10. https://mobile.twitter.com/whitesox/status/1369741583944359940
  11. That being said, prior to the last few years, the FO has been exhausting for a lot more than two decades
  12. He's beginning to sound like the pitcher's Walt Hriniak.
  13. Go’ be like Hoyt Dotson Bannister and Burns up in here!
  14. Pretty much. Money finds it’s way onto the field
  15. If he has lost a step, relegated to corner with all the muscle added, and now he is incapable of CF, that could be one added reason to get gigged.
  16. This is unrelated as a comparison, but similar in a way. Way back in the last century, Bally’s had a ridiculous gym membership offer for $7 a month which I gladly signed up for but never used. A great deal, for Bally’s. Which is the thinking. Few people really use their gym membership lol. May as well offer it for $3 a month. Free money. Which is also similar to life insurance. People buy it, but most eventually stop paying for it somewhere along the line. So the insurance company doesn’t have a bunch of people that actually cash in. Free money. But anyway TA will be best served if they don’t drive a hard bargain on price to drive buyers out of the market. Even if they offer it for a dollar a month to as many people as possible. Its not like it increases their overhead to give out more subscriptions. A very lucrative move. A dollar a month.
  17. Before you start with general “concern”, it would be best to point out specific core players to be worried about that have been noticed in order to have productive discussion around this. Otherwise, general concern is not very convincing. Which core players are you projecting to have issues? I have seen more reasons for optimism around core players personally than concerns. If batting averages for this guy or that guy have shook anyone, rest assured batting average in Cactus League are completely worthless for more or less proven players. And the core pitching looks amazing. I can’t believe Lance Lynn is something to worry about if he walked a few guys in Arizona. The Sox are probably vulnerable to good right handers. But other than that.....don’t have an average day against these guys. They will hit right handed pitching.
  18. I'm on a Bears and Bulls mesage board for I'm sure about 15 years. And for those 15 years they have made a big deal about preseason on both boards 15 times. And if the preseason ever has matched the reg season, it hasn't happened much. But they return year after year with the same correlation talk.
  19. If he can play 3rd, it would be a tough call to choose.

  22. Look here, TA can barely hold in the resentment
