    I love Duran, but Witt is only 24. What still amazes me is that Devers is only 27. Devers is actually about 2 months younger than Duran.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Who would be your 1st pick?
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Very good point. I believe the SOX probably, and I can't prove it, draft more high schoolers than anyone.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Btw, coming into tonight's games, Bobby Witt, Jr is 12-15 since the all-star break. If I was starting a new team and I could pick any player in MLB to be on it, Witt, Jr would be my first pick.
  5. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I'm just guessing, but Betts probably would have been a very good CF'r, but the SOX did have Bradley, who was in a class of his own defensively.
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Rockies announcers also made a point I totally agree with that the everyday SS is usually the best athlete on the field. They mentioned that during the MLB draft, SS's, more than any other position, are picked mainly because of their athleticism.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    That is correct, but it was a discussion of an everyday player excelling at those two positions.
  8. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Let's hope that doesn't turn into a problem.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The Rockies' booth was talking about Rafaela and how rare it is for an elite CF to also be a very good SS. The only other player they could think of was Robin Yount. I believe, based on his athleticism, that the oft injured Story would have also been a very good CF'r. I'm sure the same thing would hold true for Betts.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I guess it's a good thing Molina didn't start the game for the Rockies.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    O'Neill is doing what a professional hitter should do against a rag arm. Well done, Tyler.
  12. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Based on Bryant's injury history, he would have been a perfect fit for the SOX.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Maybe we will see Dom on the mound tonight.
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Watching the Mets/Yankems game and discovered our ol' buddy JD is 14 for his last 73 with a slugging % of .295.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Dom Smith or Mr Anderson? That's a tough call. Of course, Cora can't use DOM unless he has a 10 run lead or is behind by 10. With a lesser runs scored game, he wouldn't use Mr. Anderson, unless he was the only one left. With Mr Anderson and Horn on the SOX, it has to be damn scary how bad the pitching must be on the farm.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I agree with Cora's "we have a pretty good team." I also agree with those who say it's not good enough. The 'not good enough' is strictly in the hands of the FO and ownership.

    Breslow to an MLB team's GM: "Hey, that RH batter we were discussing for a trade. Ah, nevermind, we won't need him."
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Won't get fooled again. Yeah, we will. We always do.
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    The great turnaround started last Friday.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Goodwill doesn't accept returns.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Mr Anderson. He didn't throw many pitches, so he should be available tomorrow.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Devers may deliver, but Blackmon is straight from Deliverance.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I hope Horn hasn't unpacked.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    No, not at this time.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    They're bringing in the Horn section.
