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?

His wRC+ in May is 189 and his OPS is 1.148. WTF are you talking about?

We have a better record than the Rockies. ?

Definitely not a fan of bringing Ramos up right now, but I have to wonder what's going on with Sosa and Colas for the Sox to give up on them.

When he first came over, I remember everyone on this board jerking off to him doing pure ego exercises like trying to crow hop 110MPH on a flat surface and deadlifting 400 lbs.

Rating exertion is something actual athletes are always asked to do. It's the basis for just about every strength training program that's ever been developed.

The same Matthew Thompson that was already demoted this year after getting shelled in AAA?

Damn, Getz just let a 26 year old who's like the 38th ranked prospect in the Sox system walk for nothing? I'm so mad I don't know what to do. ? Career ERA 4.6. 2024 WHIP 2.32

Ball's legs have been mismanaged his entire life by his crazy ass dad. The Bulls have been relatively healthy other than Ball and LaVine, whose injuries have been a problem for way longer than they've been associated with the Bulls.

Come on. Ramos is a better prospect than Colas and Sosa. He'll get the Vaughn treatment, then everyone will cry that he was given too long of a leash.

The biggest question isn't whether they make the ALCS, it's whether they win the ALCS.

Maybe I wrote it poorly. I thought it was pretty obvious I was saying I think he's going to be a star, but due to his velocity, it's safer to predict he'll be a 4 or 5.

Pretty easily .500 by June.

I will go out on a limb and say that Thorpe is going to be a star. I've watched all the footage I can find on him and his ability to miss bats while throwing 91 is the most intriguing thing I've seen out of a prospect in a long time. Odds are that he's a 4 or a 5, but I think his change is so devastating that it won't matter.

I'm not trying to prove anything. I'm giving my opinion. That's the only point of a sports message board. None of our opinions actually matter and none of our opinions are valued by anybody who does matter.
