Scary writeup on Montgomery. Pitching went backwards for so many of our mid tier pitchers. Gone backwards: nastrani, Pallete, Eder, Gonzalez, Iraite, Zavala, Bush, Ramos, and Taylor. Definitely seemed more negative than positive even though the system is improving. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6104105/2025/02/04/white-sox-2025-top-20-prospects-keith-law/

Solid return for Crochet! Love the offseason so far. Revamping the analytics, international, and development departments! Long overdue!!! Love bringing other voices from other organizations. Love hearing that Aiden Miller was part of trade with Phillies and wanting more than what was being offered with Crawford and other pieces. Let’s hopefully sign a couple free agents with 1-2 year deals we can flip. Wait and trade Robert until someone steps up which I believe will happen. Crossing my fingers that Jerry passes away before the season opener!

Put it on the board! YES!!!

It’s really sad how we haven’t developed a key player since Ordonez and Lee. No other organization in the last 20 plus years comes close to it except maybe Baltimore but that has changed quickly in such short period with Elias putting the resources in the international spending and development.

Miguel Vargas coming to Sox

Wow that’s a ton the Padres sent to the Rays!

Do we know who Shirley wanted instead?

Sirota has some makeups issues reported by many publications.

Don’t forget we signed 9 undrafted players. I’m sure another million was spent on them. You never know. I like taking more chances.

Law's breakdown: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5640375/2024/07/18/mlb-draft-2024-american-league-report/

The 6-foot-6, 240-pound George has one of the most electric arms in college baseball but worked just two innings as a Texas freshman in 2023 and 11 1/3 as an Alabama sophomore this spring because he doesn't throw strikes. His fastball averages 99 mph and touches 102 but usually misses the zone badly, and most of the strikes he gets on his sharp upper-80s slider come on chases. There's nothing glaringly wrong with his delivery, but he's more physical than athletic. He has closer upside if he even can discover some feel for pitching.

Pierce George Alabama Pitcher

Sox have to be targeting someone big tomorrow in the 11th round.

Changed 2 years ago.

Where the heck has Lacombe been this year. Hasn’t pitch an inning.

Looking at the video on Bonemar there are some quick fixes to help him out. He barely loads and the lower half isn’t being used. Needs to be more athletic with his swing.

Completely shocked he lasted to #20

Oakland has done a lot strange picks in the 1st round for the past decade.

Seems like Reds and Rockies are in play for Cags.

I haven’t heard anything about his makeup. What are reports saying?

Herrera hasn’t been in the lineup the past 2 weeks down in the DSL. Any word?

I love Griffin’s tools, but that swing needs some work.

I actually don't think that. I'm just making fun of Caulfield's depressing observations.
