elrockinMT Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 QUOTE (Scoots @ Aug 10, 2017 -> 01:43 AM) Lol that dropped popup hit by Engel got him a double...i guess no one touched it so you can't really give out an error, but not sure it warrants a double either. That's baseball and scoring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next spring training is going to be very very interesting. Not just for starting spots on the roster, but I doubt there will be a game where there won't be a player playing that is projected to be impacting the future competitive Sox team.

Chicago White Sox Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 QUOTE (Scoots @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) Next spring training is going to be very very interesting. Not just for starting spots on the roster, but I doubt there will be a game where there won't be a player playing that is projected to be impacting the future competitive Sox team. While I was 100% joking about Tilson, it's going to be an interesting camp. There should be a ton of competition for spots and most of those will be fringe guys who may be playing for the best major league opportunity they'll ever get. And yes, most of these guys won't be on the next good Sox team, but if we can hit on even one diomand in the rough it will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScootsMcGoots Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Honestly, the positional players that are on the team now is probably the one you see starting 2018. Engel Anderson Abreu Avi Moncada Delmonico (DH) Davidson, Narvaez/Smith, Leury. Bench is Yolmer, Saly, Omar/Smith, outfielder (Tilson, Willy?) Not sure about yall, but I like that lineup for a team in its second rebuilding year (development phase). That lineup is at least predictable... Pitching is a whole other story and I expect to be horrendous. I see Eloy forcing his way to the majors before Sept. if he rakes at AA and AAA like he is at WS.

FT35 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I realize the tank is on and the bullpen has yet to enter tonight's game...but it feels extra nice to string some decent play together against Houston.

SonofaRoache Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 If we can get some great hitting from Nicky and Yoan, and Tim/Avi/Jose can be .270-.290 hitters, our rebuild will be a glorious one. Yoan's OBP now at .357 with a .182 average. That is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
