Yes Movement – 2020 Chicago Cubs Player Previews: Jon Lester

Adam Hess March 23, 2020 0

We come now to the savvy veteran of the Cubs rotation, as we visit with the surprisingly-gracefully-aging Jon Lester. While Lester is certainly far from the pitcher he was during his first two years with the Cubs, he has done a good job avoiding completely falling off a cliff over the past few

New World Order: 2020 White Sox Previews – Luis Robert

Adam Hess March 10, 2020 0

Continuing our trip trough the outfield, we now come to the most exciting White Sox prospect since, well, last year in the form of Luis Robert. Although, with all due respect to Eloy Jimenez who is universally loved by myself and all Sox fans with a right mind, Robert represents much more hope and potential […]

As we continue our trip around the diamond for the Sox this year, we now come to the hot corner which is manned by the most important player on the 2020 White Sox. Sure, you can make the case that other players like Eloy Jimenez or Luis Robert need to have breakout seasons, but if […]

New World Order: 2020 White Sox Previews – Nick Madrigal

Adam Hess March 3, 2020 0

There is perhaps no more polarizing player amongst White Sox fans than second baseman Nick Madrigal. After a great college career at Oregon State that concluded in a College World Series Championship, the Sox took the diminutive infielder with the fourth overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft, passing on a number of high upside […]

New World Order: 2020 White Sox Previews: Leury Garcia

Adam Hess March 2, 2020 0

There was a long and painful discussion about whether or not we would do a write up for Leury Legend in this preview series – mostly because the painful part was trying to figure out who would have to subject themselves to spending time writing specifically about freakin’ Leury Garcia. But, considering he was the […]

Adam Hess February 27, 2020 0

Box Score Natural Stat Trick I have to admit that my expectations for this one were not high. Given the Hawks recent string of play, the fact that the Lightning are a far superior squad, and that they badly needed to get a win at home, I felt that this one could get ugly. In […]

New World Order: 2020 White Sox Previews – Zack Collins

Adam Hess February 26, 2020 0

The first roster-fringe player we cover on our 2020 Sox Preview series is Zack Collins. While there is not a guarantee that Collins will make the Opening Day roster, he probably should get a good long look before the Sox decide to burn another option and send him down to AAA for however long, as […]

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Ooooooh boy. Jeremy Colliton has done it this time. You want your thoughts buddy? I got your thoughts. Let’s get right into it: LAUNCH JEREMY COLLITON TO PLUTO – The Blackhawks failing to beat the Oilers without Connor McDavid is embarrassing, but the reality is that this truly is not […]
