Gonzalez showing that he's an actual prospect has been one of the better developments this year. So far in his minor league career, 47bb/55k.

What was the offer Wheeler turned down?

If you're going to worry about the day to day of an 18 year Midwest kid in his first week of A ball, you might want to find a new hobby.

So they should add to the roster moves - pretty much what Southsider is saying we shouldn't do?

We should be setting records for roster moves. We're historically bad. What kid's is Maldonado blocking? You want to call Quero up way before he's ready and add to those record setting roster moves? Pick a lane. The 30 something has been's and never were's are just here to field a team. It's not like anybody thought the team would be competitive. Panicking is the 2023 Angels. What you're saying just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

We're in big trouble with or without Montgomery being a 2 win player. This is going to take a long time.

I know you tried to explain it and it still makes zero sense. "We're historically bad. Let's just embrace it and keep playing the same guys." Yeah, solid strategy there Cotton.

So they should "embrace the fact they suck" and not do anything with the roster? What? That makes absolutely no sense. What are you saying? ?

"Panic" for a team that's 30 games under .500 is such a bizarre and illogical concept that I'm not even sure what it means. Should the worst team in the league not shuffle the roster? Should they not panic? I mean, wtf are you even saying?

There's absolutely no way you have any friends in the organization.

I legitimately think his change is one of the better pitches you'll ever see. When a rh that throws 92 can make good hitters look that bad, it's pretty special.

People need to remember that he just turned 22 and he's a HS pick out of Indiana. There's a reason he's ranked so highly.

They paid $3M for a guy that put up 2.2 WAR last year. Of course it was worth it.

Hiring Ozzie would be just about the most uninspired White Sox type of move the White Sox could possibly make. After TLR, maybe the Sox should move on from drunk ex Sox managers.

Chone Figgins was a 22 WAR player with one season at 6.6.

Robert is more athletic, but he's not a more naturally talented baseball player than Frank Thomas. Thomas is among the top 5 most gifted right handed hitters to ever pick up a bat.

EZ

Ice cold.

Against a LH off of a hanger. That's pure.

Because we're multiple years from being competitive. If we can get prospects for relievers, it's a no brainer.

Flexen and Kopech might also be building value.

A couple of the kids have looked good and they're starting to have some tradeable assets eg Fedde, Leasure, Wilson. That's progress for the organization.

He's a HS pick from Indiana. He's incredibly advanced for his pedigree. Give it some time. The kid is going to hit enough for any position.

What?
