Dick Allen Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Just now, greg775 said: Now that I see Collins looked mad at the airport, this is starting to steam me. He gets brought up and hardly plays at all then they acquire Reed for no good reason except the Sox had to have had Reed on their trade radar at some point in the tank/rebuild. Collins homered in his first at bat, didn't he? Instead of trying to ride that, they hardly play him at all. In another tank season, Sox should have had him get a couple months worth of at bats. He could split time with McCann and that'd be reasonable. Just release Beef or trade him for peanuts. The guy didn't see him at the airport. They were in Oakland. The earliest the guy who saw him at O'Hare last night could have seen him was probably around midnight. Ever been to O'Hare at midnight on a Sunday night? Unless you were on his flight, you weren't going to run into him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 It was incredible. A guy saw him at O Hare 3 and a half hours after their game ended in Oakland. I wonder if he still was in uniform. I am not on Twitter but that clown needs to be called out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mqr Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) I wonder if that random dude genuinely believed some other random dude was Zack Collins. Edited July 15, 2019 by mqr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still very much in the realm of possibility, if not likely that Collins goes down for beef. I don't think they're going to carry three catchers AND reed.

hogan873 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Why make up shit like this? I mean, I sort of got it when people were claiming to have seen Machado on a plane or at the Bears game, but we're talking about Zack Collins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is indeed true (who knows for sure?) then that's another black mark on the drafting part of the front office. It would be another high first round pick that they missed on. How many mulligans does that group get before someone starts asking what is wrong? Fulmer, Collins, Burdi, Burger... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But why would that person pretend that they were Zack Collins and claim they were going to Charlotte? What are the odds that person even knows who Zack Collins is? Why did this person look upset/angry? These questions need answers. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting a major leaguer period would be a good outcome. I am not taking any sides here but just for kicks I decided to look up the #10 pick for the 10 years prior to Collins. 2015 Cornelius Randolph...OF in AA 2014 Michael Conforto...OF for the Mets 2013 Phil Bickford...P in A+ ball 2012 David Dahl...OF for the Rockies 2011 Corey Spangenberg...2B recently DFA by Brewers organization 2010 Michael Choice...P in the Mexican League 2009 Drew Storen...P who is currently a free agent 2008 Jason Castro...C for the Twins 2007 Madison Bumgarner...P for the Giants 2006 Tim Lincecum...P currently listed as a free agent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's funny because I feel the same way about the guy in the Mexican League that Jack Parkman thought of Giolito last year. Get on the horn Rick...maybe we can trade Castillo and Jay for him.
