  1. Any team that doesn't win the WS is a flop! The 99 Sox when Pedro came out in relief? Flops!! The 21 Sox that went to the ALCS after being one of the worst teams in baseball the year before? Flops! Try not to put to much brain power towards thinking about it. It's not worth it.
  2. Rough stretch for Ranger. His last QS was June. He looks like the 4th starter at this point.
  3. Samaniego's numbers in AAA aren't too enticing TBH.
  4. Don't worry, he's safely stored in WOO hitting singles and striking out.
  5. Good move. Gamboa has been great this season and seems to be underappreciated. Lots of red on Statcast and decent FIP for a low leverage guy. I'd rather him pitch than Martinez, Burgos, et al.
  6. Not sure what 2025 has to do with this TBH! We're in the here and now where Duran has a 64 wRC+ and has the lowest fWAR for any qualified LFer in MLB!
  7. BTW, the PTBNL in the Adley trade has been confirmed as Harold Rivas (SP #10).
  8. Hitters like him aren't typically rule 5 draftees. Also, if there is a lockout, there is no draft.
  9. Swinging Strike % (More than 100 Pitches) Romy 27.7 - WOO TCC 26.9 - WOO Eaton 26.7 - WOO Duran 26.3 - Plays every dang day! Narvaez 26.4 - BAL Story 25.0 - IL That's a list of guys who you wouldn't want to see up with the game on the line this year.
  10. Per the most recent episode of the TalkSox podcast, it's noted that the issue is that he doesn't square up the ball (7th percentile) and his bad approach at the plate isn't going to change that anytime soon (high chase and whiff numbers). While he's swinging the bat hard, he's just not able to connect on many pitches. He can't even hit 4 seamers this year.
  11. Trade him for anybody. Bleday/Grichuk platoon would be better than Duran. Keeping him for injury insurance at 10M/yr is silly.
  12. It’s Rogers per Tracy.
  13. That's a long IL stint probably.
  14. Only if they put him under anesthesia for "another tattoo" but just shave his head instead.
  15. If you bring Campbell up, you have to cut Jones or White. Seems a little riskier for a guy that isn't tearing up AAA.
  16. No, that would just make too many of us happy!
  17. They already have Masa. His ceiling right now is Masa. Keep him in AAA into the ceiling goes higher.
  18. Projecting. Hawk Harrelson used to say "he gone" during ChiSox broadcasts.
  19. He's only playable because they didn't trade him for prospects and grab a cheap RHB replacement like Grichuk. Add a platoon partner like Bleday and you'd still save $$$. A much better LF than Duran too.
  20. When did they sit out Monasterio before last night? His streak had already been broken and they had lost two in a row.
  21. Pivetta was a reclamation project at the time. Schwarber was injured and most fans generally shrugged their shoulders when it happened. There were a few posters here who prefered Valdez over Abreu for a while.
  22. They didn't need a LHB. They already had Duran, Masa and Abreu.
