fathom Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 17, 2016 -> 03:28 AM) I think Hahn has done his job really well given the constraints he has to work under and to say that he can't build a farm is a joke, the Sox have drafted consistently well since he took over and their LA program is starting to turn out players. The farm system is bottom ten for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 09:26 PM) Except there is a choice. Dont do it. Your better off milling around in the middle than letting Rick Hahn/Kenny Williams trade any of the high profile guys. You dont trust their scouting fine I get it. But you cant have it both ways and then let them try and scout minor league players for potentially the most important trade in franchise history. What I don't want is it to be 2020 and Sales about to leave and we've don't nothing but suck and then not get anything for him. Same goes for Q. Sell high on these guys and with those two you should get two young MLB ready impact players, plus a bunch of A prospects and some B. Then you can still move the other guys. I don't trust Hahn very much but I'm sick of seeing this s***. I'd rather suck and have some awesome young prospects coming through the system and knowing at least there's a long term future ahead.

Chicago White Sox Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 09:30 PM) The farm system is bottom ten for sure Bottom five more likely. If Fulmer loses his eligibility, Collins is the only possible top 100 prospect. I do think the system is on the upswing as we're finally producing some Latin prospects and the current draft class looks promising. But there are a ton of guys in full season ball having tough years and very few having having breakouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a top-heavy top ten for a few years now Rodon never really registered with the farm system. He was barely there. If the Sox had done the traditional thing of having these guys put up huge numbers at low levels, the rankings would have loved them. Instead they are actual major leaguers, which is better than ranked minor leaguers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footlongcomiskeydog Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 The Sox may not score 100 runs the rest of the year. This is a bad offense that cannot be magically fixed at the trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Woo hoo 29 straight scoreless innings. Oh Abreu I love the 2 doubles . But did you really think Shoemaker was going to throw you a strike there with 1st base open and you hitting him well the 1st 2 AB's. A smart hitter like Ortiz would've took that pitch 99/100 times.

Whisox05 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Abreu has chased 306 pitches out of the strike zone and leads the majors in that category. He needs to adjust that or hes going to get worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
