The 2017 MLB Thread

[Tommy bilfiger]

Last night carson fullmer looked like wild thing in major league duke was throwing the ball all over the place.That was an ugly outing

 

[ckfree]

thats why im jealous of what cubs fans have right now

an incredible roster

a stacked system

a dynamite manager

a forward thinking front office

a revitalization plan (wrigleyville gonna be craziers in a couple years)

and a galvanized hungry fanbase

meanwhile over here the white sox got an exceptionally stupidly cheap core but cant do nothing with it

a manager who either cant or wont learn

a half blind front office

a passably racist grandpa tv broadcaster

a crippled system

and a fanbase that is half eating itself, half curled up in the corner

im happy the white sox ended their 88 year world series drought in 2005 but what happened in the 10 years after shows that it was a lucky lightning in a bottle team

i read hes seattle 15th ebst prospect

i guess there really isnt a huge market for a guy like him who probably will be an average 1b defensively and dh

and you can tell from his body language that cj edwards looks like hes gaining more confidence every time out there

fulmer threw 18 of his 30 pitches for balls and many were off by a foot

he has walked guys at a huge clip in minors too (more than 5 per 9 innings)

hes simply not ready albeit talented

he was working on a new delivery and ended up going back to his old one

still finding himself

he'll be aight

he will be playing this season and the next 3

his age 27-30 seasons

at less than 50% of his market value

I WANT IT ALL

If I'm rick hahn I'm hitting up the red sox dave dombrowski don't value prospects at all.Yoan Moncada,Andrew Bentendi,Blake swihart and kopech I'd try to get devers too

 

[ckfree]

word

red sox showed their cards

gave up a top 15-20 prospect for a dude who was having a good first half in pitcher friendly petco park

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Yea Edwards been real solid he's creating a spot in semi high leverage situations.All he gotta do is maintain his control that's his weakness he can't locate at times.He got that 2 seam heat and that power curve I've seen him throw gas past cats and had them frozen wit that curve.Maddon said his confidence levels are high last night

And Fowler showed his worth immediately wit the lead off hr then the double then the walk and single he didn't miss a beat.I think solers days are numbered on the cubs tho

Mazara nice.I personally think the rangers are being used to get other teams involved.I hope the white sox do it so I can at least watch them in a couple years that team is unwatchable

Probably choked up Ventura

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

It says non physical.He probably was spazzin at kenny williams or hahn cuz his name in trade rumors or it's a smokescreen

Sounds like if the white sox gets the right offer it's gonna happen.I just hope he starts tomorrow so he can miss the cubs series

Stanton just murdered a ball off DeGrom

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Lackey sucks man.Steady throwing meatballs up there If I see this goofy ass mascot slide down this slide again
