when is it appropriate to start worrying about moncada?
I'm not a Sox fan, but it's not so much the nature of the plan as the fact that, thusfar, it has been executed really, really well. Rick Hahn has gotten tremendous value for the assets that were left on an already-bad Sox team, and has put them in a position to be competitive very soon.
It's when you turn into the Pirates or A's and keep the cycle churning of always selling off the valuable pieces you got for selling off your previous valuable pieces that it turns into a sham.

To me, the combination of Chicago's gaggle of high-ceiling, near-ready prospects and maximum financial flexibility makes the White Sox baseball's sleeping giant. And with an overachieving season -- not playoff contention, or even a run at .500, necessarily -- Chicago could create a perception of forward momentum that might look enticing to premium free agents.
I put this loss on Renteria. Shields absolutely sucks in the first inning, so why put him out there when one run loses it for you? And in typical Shields fashion, it would have been more than one run if the A's needed hem.
Wasn't Trayce Thompson with the Sox before? Or am I thinking of another Thompson!
Appeared in 44 games for the big league club in 2015.
scary indeed. He seems to be doing better, but not ot of the woods yet
News broadcast in Chicago. Maybe I misunderstood. They sounded somewhat positive given the seriousness of the aneurysm , but said next few days are critical. I guess I mistakenly took that as better, but guarded?
Blake Rutherford is having a stellar start in 2018. He is slashing .373/.421/.510, with a weighted runs created plus of 161, which means he is roughly better that 61% of the hitting competition. He has not hit a home run yet, but he already has seven doubles in 12 games. He is also sporting a career-high line drive rate of 26.3%, which means he is showing improvement in elevating the ball thus far. His BABIP is high (.475) so his slash line will dip, but Rutherford should still be around a .280 hitter if he wants to show more pop.

this was a trick question
