  1. I'm definitely on that train. I'm hoping he can stake his claim on a starting spot at either 3rd or 2B "4. Jake Burger: there is no one who deserves to be here more. Either by sheer perseverance or skill, Burger missed 3+ seasons because of a couple torn achilles and the pandemic but he still managed to prove there is a legit mlb caliber player ready to star. Burger hit .274 with 18 HR at AAA and looked comfortable hitting .263 with 1 HR over 15 games in the bigs. He is only going to get better with further health and time to actually hone his skills. I fully believe if the Sox ever trade him or man up and give him a spot he is a .275 hitter with 25+ HR potential."
  2. That really looked like a routine fly ball that he didn't get to, maybe it wasn't
  3. Hard to tell from the angle but either this ump is being a tool in ST and squeezing Kopech for no reason or McGuire isn't that good at catching the ball bc there was a number of pitches that looked like strikes but not called.
  4. Adolfo is making the team for the first month at the very least, probably by then Engel is hurt and Adolfo is on the team for longer
  5. A bag of balls would be better
  6. Love him. Gonna bring some real swag to the south side this year ?
  7. Sitting 97-98 this season and was i think 99 in fall instructs, I think 92-94 before TJ
  8. I said after the added velocity which was basically after the season
  9. ST stats are nothing to be taking seriously imo. Guys work on things etc. What matters is what they look like and their production during the season.
  10. From before the added velocity to know with the added velocity he has improved. I don't care really what guys stats show in ST
  11. RP and they have added a lot to their pen so, maybe
  12. Beede is the only one there worth it. He has looked good with the added velocity
  13. I've stated numerous times that Kopech is easily our number 3 starter with Lynn and by the end of the season will be our number 1 or 2 starter. So without Lynn I have him as our number 2 starter, now that doesn't mean he will be starting game 2 of the season or even going real deep early on the season. It just means he will be our 2nd best starting pitcher.
  14. That wasn't regarding you in any way, sorry if I made it sound like it did
  15. Its like people think I don't know things lol
  16. Gio - 1 Kopech - 2 Cease, can flip flop Kopech and Cease if you want - 3 DK - 4 (5.23 FIP and 0.6 WAR in 2021) ReyLo - 5 (4.19 FIP ans 0.7 WAR in 2021) So where would Cueto be slotting in at with his 4.05 FIP and 1.5 WAR in 2021........ Oh that's right 4th
  17. He would easily come in and be our number 4, so no he is not dog shit. In fact, given our budget and need, both Rosenthal and Cueto are perfect fits
  18. He will be up for the first month, so we can see what he does in the (most likely) small amount of playing time he gets
  19. Cueto and Trevor Rosenthal on cheap contracts should get us the depth we need
