He doesn't even matter anymore. He can suck all he wants, this time next year Madrigal will be at Birmingham and knocking at the door. Clock's ticking for Yoan Moncada.

The Sox can fool you like this and make you really sad when you see how shitty everyone at the big league club is doing, but the reality is they dont really NEED any of those guys. Giolito, Lopez, Moncada, Anderson...meh if they suck they suck. In a year their replacements will be arriving so it doesn't matter. Except for at SS, where they are conspicuously weak organizationally, they are like 2 or 3 deep at every position and have enough arms to burn through guys at the major league level every other month.

They have more outfielders than I can keep track of. More outfielders than they have minor league spots to play them. Adolfo and Rutherford are being held back at High A because Birminghan has literally FIVE outfielders already who should be getting everyday reps. And then there's Robert and Steele coming on top of all that. You dont even need faith in the White Sox to see this eventually working. You get 10 or so talented guys together vying for one or two spots and you're going to find someone who can play.

This time next year they'll be adding another top flight blue chipper in the draft, because even though I hate this sucking they at least dont get all cute in the draft. They take the best guy on the board and run with it.

He's on pace for 230 stikeouts yet he currently has an OBP of .350. So that's pretty fucking good.

And the strikeouts will go down. He's hitting the ball now so pitchers will be more careful and he'll walk more then he already has been walking.

He's gonna be a great player like I said when he was shit 2 weeks ago. Bottom line. So all of the doubter can shut up.

Even when it looked like he had arrived earlier this year I didn't buy it. Moncada was fool's gold from the start.

They have to clean house this offseason. Time to get some fresh coaches in. This team has given up and these need to be gone.

For instance they were never taught that Columbus was a slave owner.

At this point Madigral looks like Moncada's replacement. Moncada is worse than Tim Anderson defensively. Offensively he strikes out too often, but it looks like the real problem is that he cannot hit left-handed pitching. He has a .440 OPS as a right handed hitter.

He's actually pretty good as only a lefty- .782. Maybe time to drop the switch hitting. Not sure what can be done about his defense.

I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

Definitely.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

He shows flashes at the plate. I'm not sure if he'll ever be a consistent hitter but he'll have enough hot stretches to be an overall above avg player. I'm having a hard time figuring out what his long term position is other than LF.

I feel bad for you guys missing on this one. It will hurt for awhile.

I have MANY years of experience in trying to appreciate steaming piles of dogshit.

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

Even if he doesn't develop a single iota from here on out I think he's already surpassed the illustrious Gordon Beckham. It could be worse.

No. He needs to improve. A lot. He’s been pretty bad this year.

He's not Gordon Beckham. I know that for sure. Beckham's swing was awful. Moncada has a perfect swing. Gotta hit the ball. I know that. But the swing is perfect.

I think he will hit like I've said. He's been pretty good the last 3 or 4 games. It's his first full year. You gotta give him a break. His slugging and OBP are pretty decent when you consider his poor batting average.

Madrigal will be knocking on the door this time next year and if Moncada isn't cutting it he will be replaced. He can still turn it around, his situation isn't as hopeless as Robert's, but if he doesn't oh well. Their best prospect other than Jimenez plays the same position.

You gotta give him a break.
