poppysox Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Quote I can't remember being this anxious for a future player. This comment is not aimed at Yomer. He will be just fine after he gets the rust off. Madrigal has the qualities of Nellie Fox of bat control and GG defense that makes things happen. I am expecting him to be my favorite player for the next decade. The skills that Madrigal has don't take many days off. Slumps are very rare. I am keen on Robert, Cease, Kopech, Adolfo, Rutherford etc.. My money is on Madrigal being considered our MVP in a few years. Homers are sexy but consistency like Madrigal shows is rare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen a crazy lightning rod for hate and love for a high draft pick like Madrigal . You compare him to Nellie Fox and I saw a post a few days ago calling him a 2nd to 4th rounder who plenty of people dislike because he has shown little pop in his limited time in the low minors. This thread should be fun. Grabbing the popcorn. Edited April 4, 2019 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 If he hits and plays defense like some people think, including most of Fangraphs, his college coach and so on then he can call himself the Nick Mother Fucking Madrigal for all I care.
