  1. I’m in total agreement with you in regards to the offense being more consistent with the arrival of Eloy and guys like Moncada and Anderson taking the next steps in their development. They also turned the bullpen into a major strength that shorten games for the young staff but I think they also improved the defense of the team with Alonso and Jay. If the team stays as it is, I’m thinking 75-77 wins which would be huge. If they land a Harper or Machado, I think they can play meaning games late in the regular season at the least .500 ball.
  2. Growing up black in a family that loves baseball, my grandfathers and my uncles would always tell me stories about Frank Robinson and how big a deal he was as a player and a manager. I called my grandfather today and told him and he couldnt believe it.
  3. Call me crazy but is Markkanen the only true untouchable on the Bulls?
  4. They should do whatever is best for them, their families and their wallets.
  5. I think so as well but as a swingman/opener/multi-inning reliever.
  6. I heard from a source that Manny Machado kidnapped Will and Julie Purcell.
  7. I think that the Sox employed a good strategy when they started the rebuild. They had a largely empty farm and targeted high floor guys in the draft as they replenished the system. Now that they have that depth, I think they should definitely start targeting more high ceiling guys in the draft. I understand that those guys carry way more risk but when you hit on a guy, they could be a superstar.
  8. This might be a good thing as Lazano now has a team to use as leverage against the Sox in the final stages of negotiations. A deal will get done soon in the next two weeks, that’s my prediction.
  9. On the set I’m working on, we’re having White Castle today for our lunch. Obviously, the other producers don’t want to get much work done today.
  10. I’m a big fan of McHughing, more pitchers should do it. **Throwing their most dominant pitch more often.
  11. Does anyone have a link to the Bruce Levine interview from today?
  12. People have to stop linking the Sox and the Bulls operations. While Jerry signs the checks for both orgs, his son Michael is running that ship and has been for a few years on his own.
  13. I don’t think that theSox were leaking. The reports that came out makes them look horribly cheap. The Sox wouldn’t have made it this far in the Machado sweepstakes if their offer was south of $200M.
  14. Going forward, Passan and Gomez are who I’m looking forward to hearing from regarding this team and player.
  15. If you’re gonna back out on Machado now, might as well move on completely
  16. This is will wrapped by Wednesday, Friday at the latest.
  17. I would love it if the Sox announced this first officially, beating all the journalist and the insiders to the punch.
  18. Say what you will about Hoiberg but I think he was good at helping develop the players, there were stories about him staying with players after practice and helping them refine their shots and what not. It seems like some of the Bulls young players are stuck in neutral under Boylen, in regards to their development. Markkenan and Lavine can’t shoot threes? Markkenan isn’t a prime option on offense? There was a game where he only got off six shots. Wendell Carter Jr. is getting pulled after 13 minutes? Kris Dunn can’t push the tempo? The Bulls are a joke, everybody needs to go.
