Yup on phone. I had the ads happening earlier frequently On both my phone and my laptop. It stopped a little while ago for the most part. 

Great...I already thought it was bad enough, now gotta deal with this. I think if I pay to be a plus member on here, I shouldn't be seeing any ads.

McKenna's catch is more important that it seems..if thats out...and we go to Lopez with a 3 run lead...it would be nervous time...

No chance they go to Lopez with a 3 run lead with Cano on 3 days of rest. Not that Cano has been lights out.

    • Lol, those who know me will attest to the fact that I'm the guy who walks outta the house without something I need. Same as not remembering the OP and the premise. 🤣 And we're in agreement there. Mateo is a good piece is and I often think the same with regards to Mullins or Hays. These are not guys around whom to build your team but can be useful in trade packaged with a prospect who is either blocked positionally (Norby) or who they just don't see as productive ML players (Stowers).  And yes, y'all those are suppositions, so save the angry responses, they're just examples. Mullins and Hays are nice role guys and getting older. They can help a contender, but they're never going to headline a deal in the same way Mateo won't.  Agree about Mateo getting on base to have a chance to wreak havoc, but I think especially with Mateo a contender will value his defense, including his versatility and positional value. Maybe a package for a TOR that includes one or more of these pieces packaged with Povich and Norby/Stowers, Basallo? gets the team that guy who DOES move the needle and steps in for the loss of Bradish. For now....another move to solidify the pen probably needs to be addressed.
    • If Gunnar were in AAA at 22 he would have 30 HRs in 48 games with an OPS of 2.000
    • Literally don't care about the walks. Cowser walked a lot - how did his .400+ AAA OBP translate to the majors?  All I want to see is XBH from Holliday. We know he can work a walk on crappy AAA pitching. Once he hits for more consistent power, we'll know he's ready. 
    • If Elias put his glasses on to see the future, I doubt he'd trade for Burnes knowing 3/5ths of the rotation would need TJS.
    • Coby Mayo in AAA this year: 48 games .301/.370/.617/1.048 13 2B, 2 3B, 15 HR 20 BB, 56 K 41 RBI Gunnar Henderson in his AAA career: 65 games .288/.390/.504/.894 13 2B, 4 3B, 11 HR 38 BB, 78 K 38 RBI It's well past time to call Coby up
    • I'm not sure if you just don't like him and are being intentional but it's Irvin, not Irwin. Ben McDonald calls him Irving. It's just Irvin.
    • This is along the lines of what I was thinking. DeLeon, Bradfield and McDermott are painful to part with but I think you need about 3 prospects that will hurt like that on top of Kjerstad and Norby. And I think the White Sox will want 2 good pitching prospects in that type of deal.  I’d obviously prefer to give up some lesser pitching prospects, but the only pitching prospects I’m not all that fond of and think we could deal as a “sell high” are Johnson and Baumeister. And their value is not high enough to move the needle that much. I’d do that deal you proposed and I think the White Sox do too, or at least they won’t get a better offer than that.  Have Suarez piggyback Crochet, and keep Crochet around 3-4 IP, 50-60 pitches per start until September when you stretch him back out. And maybe you can plug in Povich or Irvin for some spot starts when there aren’t off days to give Crochet 5 days rest when you can, or skip some starts when you can if he needs it.
