  1. Am surprised by his defense, but he's been playing 3rd for a while. He'll bounce back.
  2. Agreed. On the other hand, JR has more potential than 90% of our pen. Maybe they ship some one else back when TA returns.
  3. Is any body old enough to remember Jim Kaat going from a fading player to a star again with nothing more than a new delivery?
  4. I like that we're talking extension. It's better than 5 minutes ago when we were all calling him a bust.
  5. steel walker low a. I hope it's for 3 weeks or so.
  6. I always try to wait until 30-40 games played to form opinions, but Abreu and Moncada look good at the plate. Maybe the pen will be good by midseason, especially with a new manager.
  7. Birmingham. lambert, flores and sheets. also rutherford
  8. Good to hear. Can't believe any one would want McCann more than Smith. especially for more money.
  9. shields was our 2nd best starter last year. if some one pitches like shields did last year, he'll be our 3rd best this year.
  10. adam dunn was in the majors 2 years ago compared to collins. it's catcher or nothing for ZC.
  11. Fulmer was picked the same year and barring a miracle, "he gone". How bout Jay,Fulmer,Adams and a reliever for Happ?
  12. One thing going for him is the injuries that he's had are minor things. No knee or broken ankle or shoulder. Things that debilitate a career.
  13. It's been 5 years or so since we've been relevant. We have our good prospects reaching the majors or the high levels AA-AAA. There is a good chance we'll know whether or not it's going to work out pretty soon. Don't know whether to be excited, or program suicide hotline into my phone. I'll probably just go buy a thirty pack of Grain Belt instead.
  14. If Gavin sheets is hitting .300 with 6-8 homers at AA on draft day, would the Sox still take Vaughn if he's there? Burger might be a future 1st base candidate too. Burger is going to hit if his career isn't lost to injury, and his hands are soft. Don't forget about Zach Collins either. I've never been crazy about him and he is 24 this year but you never know.
  15. What kind of training camp did KM have? where is he being assigned? He and Gavin Sheets are the guys I'll be Following closely. I am hoping the Sox hold on to both of them as long term solutions.
  16. Are they better overall talent wise? I'd say they are older and more polished. Witt is probably the most talented of them all.
  17. Please let royals skip Bobby Witt. Then we might end up with a plan B in case TA,YM or NM fade.
  18. boy that's gloomy. He has good hands and could hit before his injury. He wouldn't be the first promising guy not to make it because of injury though.
  19. Ugh. Knowing us he'll probably start opening day in the lead off spot.
  20. He looks about the same to me. Some thick guys are better athletes than you'd expect. Kirby Puckett, Charles Barkley etc. Let him play and judge by the results.
  21. his nickname should be Mags2. He'll be up by June 1st if he's playing well. Cease will be up by then as well. White Sox will do this to spur interest in a lousy team. Cease will be able to handle it. I don't know if Mags2 can. If he does OK, then 2020 will be fun.
