    Possible, I don't really browse Twitter, but when I saw multiple people run with it I figured there was some validity.
  2. Tryptamine
    Internet running wild with the rumor the Bears have a deal with the Patriots to move up and get Jeanty for #10, #41 and a 2026 3rd
  3. Tryptamine
    If last year's reports are accurate, he's apparently at least an average defender now.
  4. Tryptamine
    Absolutely, but at least it means they put a real competitive offer on the table which means even if it's not Tucker, we can be optimistic that they're willing to put money out there for a star. Thus far they haven't shown they're willing to do that.
  5. Tryptamine
    They honestly need to put 500 on the table and just be done with it.
  6. Tryptamine
    God I'd love for them to take the season series against the Dodgers.
  7. Tryptamine
    Murakami 2022 and 2021, absolutely bust out the checkbook and pay him a lot, but that guy has been replaced by one with significant swing and miss issues.
  8. Tryptamine
    I'm so disappointed that all the plate discipline gains that made Cowles an exciting piece to get in last year's trade have basically evaporated. I had myself convinced that he had to the potential to be a budget Ben Zobrist.

    Who knows if the taking heads have any idea what they're talking about but the Bears are apparently absolutely in love with Jeanty and hoping that one of him, Warren or Membou are there. There was even talk that they were infatuated enough with Jeanty to move up for him which I would kind of hate.
  10. Tryptamine
    Kyle Tucker #5 at 1.6 fWAR, PCA 6th with 1.5.
  11. Tryptamine
    If mocks are to believed, it's very unlikely Jeanty is around at #10 and most don't have Warren making it either. Nfl.com- Kelvin Banks CBS- Kelvin Banks PFF- Armand Membou SI- Kelvin Banks Yahoo- Kelvin Banks Walter Football- Tyler Warren Tankathon- Tyler Warren I'd be so underwhelmed by Banks. If none of Jeanty, Warren or Membou are there then just trade back.

    Maybe Chicago owners should put a product out there that isn't ass
  13. Tryptamine
    I was referring to the ball he whiffed on that rolled all the way to the wall.
  14. Tryptamine
    Seems unfortunate timing after yesterday
  15. Tryptamine
    Warren sure is getting lots of hype in mock drafts at #10 now, with Jeanty making it to #10 in basically none of them.

    So barring a 6 run comeback, the White Sox are now 4-14 (.222). That puts them on 36-126 pace. Since the start of the 2024 season they're 45-135(.250). At what point does the league step in on this? This isn't even an attempt to put a competitive team on the field.
  17. Tryptamine
    Jacob Wilson is putting up an .838 OPS at the moment across 68 PAs. He has yet to take a single walk and only struck out 3 times. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this.
  18. Tryptamine
    I expect it to about as exciting as their regular season was.
  19. Tryptamine
    Yeah we're to the point where based on team need and Horton's readiness, it seems a waste for him to use his limited innings in AAA. He doesn't necessarily need to come up and instantly be a starter, but he needs to be pitching in the big leagues in some form.
  20. Tryptamine
    The guy is sporting a 40% K rate and 54.5 HR/FB% which is absolutely unprecedented. Even a power monster like Alonso has never exceeded 30.6%. Even Aaron Judge has never been over 35.6%. Mervis is going to come crashing down hard in about a month.
  21. Tryptamine
    PCA has now passed Kyle Tucker in fWAR. His 1.1 fWAR puts him at 7th amongst hitters.
  22. Tryptamine
    Even in a world where 90+% of prospects washout, it's so bizarre to see a guy like Carraway, who was supposedly drafted a couple months from MLB ready, never even put a good stretch together at any point. He was more or less a washout from day 1 despite supposedly being basically MLB ready.
  23. Tryptamine
    What is this ridiculously hard schedule? After today they have the Diamondbacks, Dodgers and Phillies. 26 of their first 29 damn games are going to be played against teams that are odds on favorites to make the playoffs.
  24. Tryptamine
    This is kind of where I'm at. Trade back to 16 or 17 and pick up one of a handful of guys that should still be there.
  25. Tryptamine
    No one I'm particularly in love with that is going to make it to 10 like Carter or Graham. I do have Walker above the rest of the pack, but not by a whole lot.
