It's necessary now, man. Lets see what they do tomorrow. For example, if they pay a guy $150K tomorrow, it costs $25K against pool. If they did that today, it counts as $150K. There are reasons for doing this. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost comical at some points hearing the TV broadcast try and be complimentary to a guy that will flame out in 1-2 minor league seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you really have to understand how the math works here. Also look around baseball. Pretty much all of MLB picked players exactly the same way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautox Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I wonder what it will take to sign Stovall, would love to see Montgomery, Kath, and Stovall come up together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox don't have the bonus to make that work, plus he's firm on going to school. The Royals might be able to do it but I think that's the only team who can take a real swing at signing him.

The funny thing is that very first major league game was at Wrigley against the Cardinals in 1978 or 1979…Garry Templeton was my favorite player then, along with Claudell Washington for the Sox. Jody Davis Eyes feels more early 80s still…some overlap there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burke may well be the most interesting player we drafted. Great size, and his stuff shows big time potential. Sox generally have developed pitching well, and I expect him to rise up our prospect lists 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 Hearing there were teams that took him off the board because they thought he was hiding an injury. Listen to your scouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
