Fields is absolutely raking right now. Nice to see Tracey continue to pitch well. I don't know what more Lopez can do at this point. He's clearly a better option than Logan right now.

i agree with what you said about lopez absolutley....he was even as good in ST too...

 

as for fields just wow....hes killing the ball....i know the sox loved what they saw in him after the season last year in the instructional league, but .357 now with 8 homers...i believe thats was his 5th homer this week...hell be player of the week and probably making himself a valuable potential trading chip at teh deadline...

Can anybody tell me how Fields' defense has been so far?

 

He haas 5 errors so far.

 

The general feeling is that he won't ever be great but passable at 3b. If we sign Crede long term, though, he gets moved to the OF or traded, IMO.

What do the Padres have in their system? They'll need a 3B, with Castilla sucking donkey balls on his way to the retirement home.

Look Flash, a team who doesn't have the history of relative success as us (i.e. better draft picks than us) and they have a s***ty system.

Agreed 100%

Disagree 100%. Logan hasn't been bad this year. I realize he's given up some inherited runs but often times he's put out after not pitching in 10 days...rust is to be expected.

 

Once he gets lose in a game or finds his command hitters rarely square him up (ie hit him hard) and I think he's pretty solid. Lopez wouldn't pitch much at all up here either and he's proven over the long haul that he's a pretty piss poor major league pitcher.

 

Logan made a serious adjustment at a relatively young age and gets really good life on his pitches now. I have zero problem holding Logan up here. If he fails after pitching on a consistent basis, than we can send him down, but thus far I see this as a semi success (a because we haven't need to use him much and b because he hasn't been awful in the games he's pitched).

Not so good, but he has played a lot better as of late.

Actually, I'd assume that the Pads were in a very similar position as the White Sox over the years. Aside from a couple years back when they were moving to Petco they have been a relatively competitive team year in and year out in the NL West.

 

This is based of my assumptions and you guys could very well prove me wrong and that they had quite a few years with terrible seasons.

They did have the #1 pick with Bush, lol.

Man, fields is raking. Great trade bait for sure. He would either play 3B (crede) 1B (kong) or corner OF positions. I guess its a good problem to have.

 

I wonder if he can play 2B?

 

 

I figure that Rogowski will be the trade bait this year.

 

Fields will be converted to a corner OF position if Crede is signed long term.

How much value could Rogo bring though? Fields is younger with a higher ceiling.

So if you have a really really young kid why not have him in AAA? If either Lopez or Logan are going to pitch once every 10 days why not have the young kid in AAA and the mid-20's non-prospect on the club? If Logan actually does have a future he should be in Charlotte getting regular work, while Lopez is here. Really neither is going to have a large impact on the game, so let Boone develop and see what Javier can do.

I think Josh Fields will be in the majors for us next year. Whether it be at LF or 3B I dont know but he will be starting for the whitesox in 07 as long as he doesnt totally tank.

 

I agree. If Crede's agent asks for the moon, I just don't see us signing him :angry:

 

Knights won again today 4-2 to :sweep: the Louisville Bats :headbang Josh Fields went 0-4 :o Charlie Haegar 6 innings, 4 hits, 4BB, 4SO for the win. Arnie Munoz gave up 2 runs 2/3 of an inning :angry:
