The 17 Ks in 40 ABs is a little concerning.

6 for 40 is OK.

Konerko went 6 for 43 to start his career.

I don't write the blog, but I do partake in the breakfasts fairly often. It was on hiatus for about 2 years for a number of reasons, but we are trying to bring it back.

Hey, Peter Pudwhack, I thought wives and families were off limits around here?
If getting your ass kicked by a 63-year old gray haired guy is on your bucket list, you're getting awfully close to crossing it off.

You might want to focus on adding a paying job to your sig instead.

Has there ever been a less self-aware post than this in the history of message boards?

I'm sure the fishing guy was blasting Ryno given the hot start of his career in 1982.

It's ok if he is bad. This is why you have the #1 farm system in baseball. Some will flourish and some will fail.

Wow, Sox fans already lowering expectations.

It's okay if the guy you traded for Chris Sale isn't good?

Rick Hahn has effectively neutered the fan base. Sad!

Yup. Very sane and reasonable take. Rather than they will all make the hall of fame. :lol:

redundancy is important with prospects. If he doesn't work out, our next top 100 prospect will.

Probably. Some cases it takes a loooong time. Like with the Royals.


And in some cases it works out but doesnt culminate in a World Series, like the Fielder-Braun-Weeks-Hart Brewers.

Sox aren't guaranteed to win a World Series in the next 5-7 years. Hot take.

It's not that they are guaranteed a world series, its just that no team in the history of prospect rankings has ever had this much high level talent assembled at one time. A world series will require a magical Spanish incantation spoken over them by Renteria.
