He was great in April and has been pretty bad ever since. I'm willing to give him the rest of the year but would be annoyed if he's on the 2019 roster, barring improvements. The walks certainly help but it's not enough if he's gonna keep hitting like he has since he came back from the DL.
-
He needs to be at Birmingham IMO
-
No wonder this thread has been so quiet
-
I don't have insider but I heard he called Adolfo a potential 35 HR, middle of the order, high OBP guy.

How To / Site Issues / Username Changes
Jose Abreu replied to Chisoxfn's topic in How Does That Work?
I think everything is moderated pretty well. The only change I'd advocate for is the moderation in PHT. Most threads nowadays get derailed by the same few posters trolling about the rebuild, complaining about Reinsdorf and something he did in the 70s that nobody cares about, repeating the same arguments over and over, etc. Sure, there's a place for that, but not in practically every thread. By the way, I'm not talking about Greg, I think he's a legitimate fan and not a troll. -
Race for the worst 2018 record (Top 5 pick) again

Can't even open a thread these days without seeing people upset that the White Sox are a profitable business. -

Yoan Moncada -
Maybe that's why he was so angry with the home plate ump. Perhaps he knew there was more riding on this start
-
Random question- since UZR doesn't factor in positioning or shifts, does that walk-off single hurt Moncada's defensive stats?
-
Good point. I didn't even remember that incident. Either way, he's gonna get votes like crazy in the next half hour.
-
Would Moncada have had a play on that in his regular spot? I can't rewind
-
Now Gurriel is gonna get tons of ASG votes and win that

Walk

Tyler Clippard
-
Soria's gonna blow this so that he doesn't get traded
-
God forbid our best player get more than 3 PAs per game, lol
-
What the hell happened to Marwin Gonzalez? A bunch of below average hitting years, then that .907 OPS 2017, and now back to his pre-2017 ways. Pretty drastic deviation.
-
For whatever it's worth, Keith Law thinks Yoan could hold his own at 3rd with enough reps.
-
I hate this lineup construction. Palka is a pretty boom or bust guy who doesn't walk, I wouldn't want him any higher than 6th or 7th. Yolmer should be in the lower third. Anderson should be in the upper third. Lots you can/should change.
-
That's true. My argument against moving Yoan has been that his range is best suited at 2B, but Madrigal probably has similar or better range. One scenario where all three pan out (I also believe that Anderson has already "panned out" if he finishes this season well) involves turning one of them- probably Madrigal- into Zobrist and just get him 148 games a year, divided between LF/SS/2B/DH/RF/3B.
-
Was really looking forward to Vieria or Hamilton soon. Oh well, the bullpen is taxed and Soria/Cedeno will be gone soon, so hopefully we don't have to wait too long
-
I think it would be Madrigal at 3B, honestly. It's not common that the already established player moves for the prospect. In this hypothetical, it's 2020 and Moncada has established himself defensively. Don't think it's too far-fetched.
-
Really, really hoping he's day to day. It would be awfully cruel for him to hit the DL now that he's been so good lately, like Moncada in late April
-
Good, fundamental play. I find that we're usually pretty good in rundowns particularly, for whatever reason
-
I agree that Tim has been playing too well to move from SS. But I just believe that Moncada's defensive ceiling at 2B is just as high, if not higher, than Madrigal's
