    Madrigal

    If it were up to me, I'd promote Robert, Madrigal and Collins to the Majors. There will be a learning curve in MLB so they might as well get started now. The Sox are finished for the year and playing these guys won't hurt a bit. With Cease already up the fans could really see what the rebuild is all about. It might also convince a major free agent pitcher the Sox have the talent to win. One other thing, by letting go of some older guys, the clubhouse might take on a fun infectious feel. The last 2 months of losing baseball can be a real drag.
  2. At least he'll have 20 months healing time before the games count. Start at 4 innings a start and stretch him out.
  3. Cecil Fielder could hit really long homers.
  4. Yeah, we'll go the cheap route. Is David Wells still breathing?
  5. I have a copy of baseball digest with Dick Allen on the cover with his autograph on it. Best present my son ever gave me.
  6. The idea of this thread is perfect. Cole would make us world series contenders tomorrow.
  7. I love Harold Baines. He is not a HOF player. If he didn't wreck his knee, maybe. When he was mobile, he could really play RF like nobody's business.
  8. Every day he wastes at low A is another day that Yoan and Gio get closer to free agency. The goal is to get your good players all playing together at the same time. If Vaughn is what they say he is, we're the dumbest team in baseball. P.S. Madrigal and Robert appear to be ready. Lets go.
  9. .351 BA over last 6 weeks. Plays a good corner OF. Stays healthy. 2 years younger than LuGon. 1 years younger than Sheets. Took time to adjust to AA, but is killing it now.
  10. Vaughn still in Kannapolis. What a waste of time. #9 prospect in mlb beating up pitchers of low quality.
  11. Promising season for Sheets. Doubled homer out put from last year with 8 weeks to go in a tougher place to hit. Has a real good glove at 1B as well. He and Blake Rutherford could be key pieces in a play off push in 2021.
  12. One thing that bugs me. Most important team in development (AA) hasn't played in a week because of weather. For a little money the Sox could have used an empty park of a team playing on the road and kept playing. Sure, it would have been a hassle. It also would have been worth it.
  13. Vaughn 3rd. high OBP
  14. teach him a splitter and he could be great out of the pen. if his arm only lasts 4-5 years, it'd be better than being bad for 7-8 years.
  15. I think that will sound like an insult to Abreu. DH/1B types can be found on the cheap, But he's been real good for a long time and I honestly don't think the Sox will play hard ball with him.
  16. Sox might have a log jam at 1B and DH in a couple of years. Gavin Sheets is actually starting to hit for power, while keeping his plate discipline intact. With Abreu, Vaughn and Zack Collins already in the mix, the Pale Hose might have a good kind of problem on their hands. I sure hope Eloy improves enough defensively to stay in the outfield.
  17. No, but the comedian in the film does examine the stages of death until finally accepting his fate.
  18. alan bannister. good center fielder. too bad he was playing short stop at the time.
  19. Too pessimistic on Sheets, Rutherford and Gonzalez. mostly Rutherford. P.S. No one can control injuries. Although, it is a little bit nutty just how bad it's been.
  20. Balta is once again the voice of reason.
  21. I know, and it's not wrong to do this. In this case it seems like a waste. Best hitter in college in a long time. 21 years old. He should be asked to do more than 19 year old Bryce Bush.
  22. ALL THAT JAZZ is one of my favorite movies.
  23. If the guy is a generational hitter, he shouldn't spend a day in Kanny. A few days in Arizona then straight to W-S.
  24. Do all the TJS have to do with guys being bigger than 40 years ago? Muscles and bones are larger. Do the tendons become less durable with the added stress larger size adds? Do tendons lose some flexibility if they become too large?
