I was debating getting this. I listen to Effectively Wild podcast, so I've heard plenty about it. I wonder if the Sox were one of the teams willing to share some insight or one of the ones that refused to speak.

Sanchez belongs on the bench, there isn't a reason he should be starting at this point. Madrigal needs to force his way onto the roster. Get a guy that will help the club win and not break the bank, and if/when Madrigal is ready, you can always move him to a contender. Gennett is going to need to re-establish his value, so why not for the Sox?

I would love the Sox target Gennett for 2B next year. All on board with him being an under-the-radar type get next offseason similar to what the Twins did with Schoop.

He belongs on the Sox. He cannot be any worse than Alonso.

Not good if that's the case. Sox better spend big on some arms this offseason.

I think the 9 spot makes a lot of sense, especially if Moncada stays in the 2 spot. Robert kind of is a wildcard though. I could see him leading off or be a solid middle of the order bat.

Maybe Luis Robert and Archie Bradley now share something in common ? ?

He has been disappointing to their defense, but the kid is still just 22. Everyone needs to learn to have more patience.

Wasn’t this one of the weakest pitching drafts, or was it just at the college level? Thompson seems like a project, almost like a poor man’s Alec Hansen.

That can’t be comforting. Lance fucking Broadway....

Tim Anderson hates him.

He’s literally the worst.

First, who is that? Second, how in the hell does one throw a baseball in such a manner?

Palka Bomb!

Doesn’t that almost leave it between Witt or Abrams?

I’d love to know who Hostetler was referring to on the White Sox Talk podcast as the player who did not impress the team during the interview process. Would be really interesting if it was one of the top guys like Vaughn or another lower guy like Lodolo. I’m so torn on who I’d prefer the Sox to take. Vaughn’s hitting ability seems like a perfect fit, but Abrams overall ability would be a nice add into the system.

Cease is listed as being the probable starter on Tuesday according to the Knights homepage.

Depends on who you ask. A lot of pitchers supposedly really like working with him. I personally think he's a realistic backup catcher option for the future. I'd temper expectations, and enjoy whatever positives or surprises come our way with him. He's a hard guy to not root for.

I agree. I think he’s thrown his last pitch in a Sox uniform.

I would think Stephens for sure. Medieros is still really young to cut ties with at this point.

Deservedly so. So great to see him having this start to the year.

Well this isn’t good. Maybe explains why he was so bad his last two starts. I never really considered Rodon a major piece for the rebuild, but this could still be a big blow if it’s serious. Here’s hoping this is precautionary.

Terrible to see. Fought his way back, made it to the bigs and just like that back to square one.
