takes lead on the White Sox while I chip in with some draftees and try to figure out what to do with Hagen Smith. It’s an interesting season but still not as deep as you’d have hoped by now.

It’s very funny to me that we (and I mean we because they are the kid’s favorite band) ended up in the Top 100 for Charly Bliss listeners but I couldn’t sniff a spot for Khruangbin despite having almost three times the minutes.

The Diamondbacks have a lot of future major leaguers here, but lack “third best hitter on a playoff team” or “game 2 starter.” It’s deep enough something might work out there though.

Absolutely wild that Gilbert Gomez is a major league coach now. Not because he doesn’t deserve it, he will be a manager in like five years, but because I covered him as a prospect (I do not like this)
