I got the new dad brain fog going haha by the time Moncada needs to be added, I’m sure Pham, Lopez, or DeJong will be moved for someone that won’t need to be 40-man’d. Accurate. They originally made it sound like Moncada would be back now, but apparently that timeline is getting quietly pushed back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Deep Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Like the move only if they are going to let the kid play and not sit him on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't be able to sustain that BABIP but if he can keep it around 320 in MLB maybe he sticks as an average regular.

WestEddy Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Unsaid so far - Baldwin is probably the 2nd best CF on the 26-man right now. Maybe swings between SS-CF in a post TDL platoon with Fletcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Talk about a kid who absolutely worked his ass off for this moment. Well deserved! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peanut33tillman Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 I’m going to the game Tuesday night in Texas. Totally expecting a Nicky/Dejong MIF pairing just to piss me off. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestEddy Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Jared Walsh released. I still think Getz will try to move anyone off of the ML roster. If Sheets and Vaughn go, maybe they go with some configuration of Colas/Sosa/Perez at 1B? https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/07/white-sox-release-jared-walsh.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that beyond Luis Robert, our CFers are Pham, Julks and Benintendi, low bar to clear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 They better play him everyday. Knowing Pedro, Lopez and DeJong will get the majority of starts because they’ve “earned it” but maybe they’ll surprise me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Just now, Quin said: Pedro somehow inexplicably finds a way to start Maldonado at SS despite him no longer being rostered. "Pedro, Chris cut Maldonado a week ago! You wrote him into the line up at SS, hitting 2nd." "My team is on the field" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
