Expand Roughly half of the pitching injuries are to guys who barely break 90. Carela Thorpe and Gilbert can barely break glass. And Adams is hardly a flamethrower.

That would really suck to DFA Carela. He’s not a huge piece, but a team coming off the worst season in baseball history can’t afford to dump a top 25 prospect with three options.

Ducksnort Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) It's quite interesting to see a bunch of former, very recent, sox players playing together on the same teams: Boston: Crochet, Giolito, Hendriks Atlanta: Bummer, Sale, ReyLo San Diego: Cease and Sheets. Tatis if you want to count him. Angels: Moncada, Anderson, Nicky Lopez, almost Yolmer I also find it interesting how the two of those very good organizations have all our former pitchers, and the subpar organization has our former positional guys.

Nobody cares that much about our major league roster. I only want to watch Shane Smith and Booser pitch, to be honest. I guess Martin, as well. Zero interest in anyone on the OD roster other than Robert's trade value...well, I guess there's Baldwin, who the White Sox are already casting in the utility man role that disappeared the likes of Marcus Semien and Romy Gonzalez. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) On 3/27/2025 at 12:41 AM, Bob Sacamano said: Yeah leave it to the professional Expand I at least spent two years working for a professional baseball team and have an MS in Sports Admin from one of the better graduate schools in the country in the 1990's for that major. I was Director of Stadium Operations and PR for the Augusta GreenJackets in 1994 and 1995 (South Atlantic League champions), and also worked for an NFL football player's charitable foundation after that. We introduced the most successful-selling hat in all of MiLB (168 teams) at that time, for example. We also had our games on ESPN during the baseball strike (had just built a new stadium as well), and I worked with Steve "Psycho" Lyons to put on one of those broadcasts. Our owner was Bill Scripps from Scripps-Howard News Syndicate out of San Diego/La Jolla/Scripps Cancer Institute. (Of course, back then, minor league team valuations were still in the single digit millions of dollars.) One of my best friends from that program is still Director of Pro Scouting for the Atlanta Hawks after starting out as a mere video intern with the Orlando Magic in 1992, to the Supersonics, to the Bucks (George Karl connections) and Atlanta (Karl coaching tree). What qualifications do you have, exactly? Edited March 27 by caulfield12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
