Another future White sox hall of famer (per sox fans) traded away.

My problem with this pick....outside of it being a 1st rd pick.... Was, ya drafted a catcher that didn't know how to catch.

Literally no one said that you fucking moron.

Waves of talent…

Oh yes they did.... yes they did.

Don't kinkshame

Zavala is out of options, right? So is McGuire, who I thought would end up at Wrigley once Contreras gets dealt.

So I can't see them running with three catchers past May 1.

Also, the Jays wanted Collins instead of Mercedes? It's not like either one of them can catch well, and the Jays' #1 prospect is a catcher who will start at AAA.

Enjoy watching your team’s ownership horde money from their dumbass fan-base while competing with small market teams for 3rd place.

The Cubs signed 2 major free agents this off-season. That’s more than you can say for the Sox

Your ownership blew up a competitive team rather than reload it - despite all of the promises surrounding the additional revenue from “modernizations” of a formerly quaint park and neighborhood. I guess you’re ok with that. Enjoy battling it out with the Pirates.

They didn’t blow anything up. They kept all players till their last year of their contracts. The players regressed and blew it up themselves

Enjoy another 1st round exit cause Jerry wouldn’t even come close to the tax

Darvish was nowhere near the end of his contract. But thanks for epitomizing the type of Cubs fan that Ricketts sold his father on when he pitched him the purchase. They love guys like you.

Not as much as Uncle Jerry loves you, fans that mind his fortune while he does nothing to upgrade a team that has been bounced in the first round two years in a row

Sox had a good defensive catcher who handled a staff nicely, maybe even great, and Jerry wouldn't pay him. Team was bounced in the first round and the staff had an 8 ERA.

At least we got a WS out of it. Scoreboard!

I've made a list for you - all the sox fans who said these guys were hall of famers before they even got on a MLB field :


Kopech
Vaughn
Collins
Madrigal
Crochet
Cease
Matt Foster
Eloy
Cease +
Roberts

I may have missed some. Caller Bob can fill the ones I forgot. The only one out of that bunch that may have a decent career is Roberts. But too early to call him a HOF'r.

Not a single person said this. It’s lies and stupidity.

the back tracking has begun. maybe reach out to good dolphin for a comment. he made many...oh .so many..

An actual prospect who for multiple years is a truly great player is rare.
Still too early to check off a lot of Sox prospects as failures.

There could be a possibility of "zero" current Cubs prospects
being great players with their putrid history of talent evaluation.

Seems sabermetrics expands the scope of what a great player is. There are old standards, now new more lenient standards. Leadership nonsense is slowly
but surely making its way as a criterion spewed for the gullible.

Then find the comments.

Grandal and Eloy are both DH's. I'm assuming they made this deal because Reese can actually field and handle the pitching staff. If that's the case.....fine. The more games Grandal is at DH the better.

The Sox spent about half a decade drafting in the top 10 with nothing to show for it. Luckily they were able to sell off All Stars to teams who know how to develop players

I've never heard of this guy but taking a quick look at his numbers, he seems better than Collins at everything but power and is team controlled for a while. I got tired of hoping and praying Collins could be something
