Well they're not bad enough to get a top 5 pick so what's the harm in seeing what he's all about in the second half. The sooner he goes through his MLB growing pains the better, and if he's transcendent it would be nice to know before the deadline when (presumably) a couple of deals may get made.


Well they will be if they start dumping guys. Encouraging results early in several areas. Would be nice to flip some of the veteran pitching for prospects. Davidson is hitting, and so is Garcia. Maybe could even get some interest in those guys if they keep it up for awhile.

If Davidson and Avi are hitting, that is player development.

Moncada has to be with the big club by Memorial Day at this rate.

HR was RHH.

We just need him to get the K's down a tad. But it does fit the Kenny model of HR or nothing.

Moncada is up to .347. At what point is the team slowing his growth by keeping him in AAA?

Bruce and Schuster had the former-Cub-now-Charlotte-Knights-manager-and young-Greg Maddox-looking Mark Grudzielanek on this morning. During the interview, he said Moncada could come up and play right now, but still has things to work on defensively, especially with footwork. I think it was Levine who said the Sox needed to hold him down at AAA until May 15 to secure him for the next six years in the majors, kinda like Kris Bryant was with the Cub his first year. *BITE*

I think they've already made the decision to bring him up as soon as he hits Super 2. As long as he doesn't go on a strikeout binge its obvious he is ready to be a big contributor offensively.

Super 2 is what turns the 3rd contract-renewable year into the first arb year, which allows for four arb years, is that right?

I think it adds another pre-arb year but I could be wrong. Either way, its 10 more days for another entire season of control.

They'll wait until after All Star break. That way they save on arbitration too.

Good scenario: switch hitting Robinson Cano
Bad scenario: thinking about this hurts

I think that's it. He'd get a fourth year in arbitration.

In any case, I guess we'll see him in ten days.

The most impressive part is he's what, 21? I thought the Sale deal couldn't possibly yield an equitable return, and I still don't, but it'd be hard to bitch about this guy.
