the just pay them when they become Free Agents argument is a childish one. The Sox are a low revenue team, they can't spend like the Yanks, Boston or even the chubbies. That's just the facts my friends, wishing it otherwise is delusional & infantile.

The Sox have to be smart - smarter than rich teams. They can't throw away years of control on a player. They have to draft much better. They have to sign better minor league FAs to fill the bench & insure against injury (Pablo Osuna).

The most disheartening thing about the rebuild is I'm pretty sure the Sox front office is too stupid to pull it off.

Name another team the promotes young pitchers to the majors with horrible minor league stats as the Sox regularly do? Who needs to be able to throw an off-speed pitch in the majors anyway? And what is this curveball I keep hearing about?

Honestly the IQ deficit in the front office is breathtaking.

And they have to stop being the chumps of MLB. Whenever a team has a terrible contract they have to unload they always look to the retard Sox. Alonzo & James Shields are exhibit A & B.

Minor league baseball has Cordero as 27 not 28.

Cordero's been unbelievable since Sox claimed him, but his career minor league numbers aren't very good.

Don't know what to think, but glad he's given a look see.

watching Fernando Tatis Jr playing against the cubbies this weekend made me vomit.

I knew when they recalled Covey from his rehab stint that they were recalling him way too soon - he only pitched a couple of innings at Charlotte. Terrible management.

Sox have no one to call up who can pitch.

He threw 10 innings over 3 games. He just stinks

both of those kiddies the Sox got have already lost a full season to injury in their past minor league history.

YEAH, he threw 2 innings, 4 innings & then 4 innings. It wasn't enough to regain his control or velocity.

in case anyone cares, Jose Rondon was picked up on waivers by another team.

AndyMacFAIL · « **Reply #3199 on:** July 31, 2019, 05:09:34 pm »

Moncada's going on the IL list and now there's no Rondon to recall to take his place. There is one open spot on the 40-man roster. Time to add Alcides Escobar from Charlotte?
