Sickels' Top 20 White Sox Prospects
1) Gordon Beckham, SS, Grade B+: Very advanced prospect with across-the-board skills. Could get to A- next year.
2) Aaron Poreda, LHP, Grade B+: Power lefty was a bit more polished than anticipated. Does he start or relieve?
3) Tyler Flowers, C, Grade B: Impressive power bat acquired in Vasquez(sic) deal.
4) Brandon Allen, 1B, Grade B- [edit]: Enormous raw power, but high strikeout rate is concerning.
5) Dayan Viciendo (sic), 3B, Grade B- [edit]: Wild guess on grade and rating. Scouting reports indicate Angel Villalona type, but who knows?
6)Clayton Richard, LHP, Grade C+: Throws strikes, nice sinker, not a big margin for error.
7) Jordan Danks, OF, Grade C+: Excellent tools, played well in pro debut, and I still think he can show some power eventually.
8) Chris Getz, 2B, Grade C+: Nice contact hitter, should be useful but not a star.
9) John Shelby, OF, Grade C+: Good tools, has speed and power, but strike zone judgment may hold him back.
10) Jose Martinez, OF, Grade C+: Good tools, season cut short by knee injury. Will power come?
11) Brent Morel, 3B, Grade C+: Nice debut. Joe Randa type?

i wonder where are system falls in all of baseball now...
larry has that system down to a science. Especially with the way the economy is….big wigs like larry coming in dressed in their mink coats and 24k gold cigarrete holders with pockets lined with coke make for a large draw during shift changes.

That's an interesting question
I think Sickels would say pretty low still (especially since he rates Viciedo so low). And I’ve seen both him and someone else (maybe Goldstein?) comment on the system lacking depth.
It brings up the interesting question how valuable having a bunch of B-/C+ prospects is. Almost all of those guys aren’t going to useful major leaguers, so I’d value a think system with a couple of A- guys higher. But that’s just me. And the Sox don’t have any A- guys anyway in a lot of people’s view.

The Sox aren't going to have any A- guys
And that has to do with what it takes to be ranked as an A- guy more than the talent of the guys in the Sox system..
Beckham is the only one I can picture making it there…
To be an A- type prospect you have to have both the tools and at least a full season of excellent minor-league production (usually above A-ball, but depends more on age vs. league)
Poreda would have needed a K-rate above 10/9IP and/or a plus secondary pitch. The rest of the high upside guys either lack the minor league record (Danks, Beckham, Viciedo) or have big question marks (Flowers, Allen)
And even if a few of those guys make it to the point where they could be rated as A-type prospects at some point next season, the Sox will have noticed the same thing and put them on the major league club, likely removing their prospect status.

BA to hit 25 dingers next year
“I’m going to keep saying the same thing I’ve always said — I believe in Brian Anderson,” Williams said. “The talent is there. Now he has an attitude that … he gets it now. He’s working hard. He had a great attitude last year and he performed. If he had a full season of at-bats underneath him last year, he would have hit 25 home runs and driven in 80-plus runs.”

someone should probably tell KW that ozzie sort of used him a lot against lefties on purpose
and that the simple math doesn’t quite work out.
"They will surely make fewer home runs," Guillen said. "Defense players and worthy pitchers will likely take over the protagonist's role."

Kenny is such a moron; why can't he grab Hanley Ramirez from the marlins to hit leaadoff?
I keep hearing that the White Sox are looking for a good leadoff hitter with speed. Why doesn’t Williams trade for someone like Reyes of the New York Mets or Hanley Ramirez of the Florida Marlins? To me, they are both good fielders and are great leadoff hitters with great power and speed that the White Sox can use. Do you think Williams would consider a trade like that to give the White Sox a good leadoff spot?
— Raymond, Chicago
With the Padres shopping Jake Peavy and the White Sox looking for a veteran starter, do you think Williams will make a move for him?

All but two of the free agents who were offered arbitration turned it down in the hopes of landing multiyear deals elsewhere. But increasingly, it appears that the Jason Variteks and Orlando Cabreras are going to have a difficult time landing deals that match what they might have made in arbitration. “With everything that’s going on, and the way the prices are dropping, there’s no way I’d give Orlando Cabrera a two-year deal for big money — not when I have to give up a draft pick,” a club official said. “Not a chance.”

true, and I agree. But this snow is unlike anything anyone would anticipate hitting Seattle...er...ever. I didn't sign up for this shit. When I complain about all the rain, then you can boohoo me.
Plus – I love the snow. I’ve played nonstop since it started. My house is a freaking private ski park and I have enjoyed every minute of our endless powder runs.
But it’s still chaotic to not be able to leave the house – and for the streets and sidewalks to be in the conditions they are.

where the hell do you live
that your house is a “freaking private ski park” ? cross country?
Sober, I was appalled at the women. Drunk I was told I danced with them all.
Just north of Seattle. I know I've posted view pics before, but probably not described much.
We live at the end of a dead-end block that sits on a ravine and forest.
The front yard is our “bunny hill” – ideal for surfboard runs (we use an old red longboard) and lead-ins to the larger hill just across the street. We also have obstacles in the bunny yard – the tree that hangs low with snow, arching over our driveway, for example. Or our cars at the base of the front yard, stuck in the snow, unable to make it up the driveway. Everything becomes an obstacle to avoid and to fashion a run around.
We also use snowboard sleds – basically, slabs of plastic/rubber that have a string at the front to hold the board under your feet – and give you some sense of false control. The only time you can control the board like a real snowboard, is when going really fast…
Which is ideal for our side yard. There is a steep drop-in next to the porch, and you can ride it all the way around the brush. The hill on this side of our driveway is also nice for carving and gaining momentum to get around the brush.
The snowboard sleds come in most handy, however, on the big hills. We have a “bowl” hill – just a steep, steep drop leading down to a creek, which is pretty harmless when covered in snow….
And also what we call the “back-country run” – a super fast run that is easily a minute or so in length – wrapping around the trees, dropping down a bit, and hugging tightly along the creek. This run finishes in the neighbor’s (below) back yard, but they are an older couple and find us charming and like to watch us eat shit.
My friend came up from Seattle on Sunday morning, parked atop the hill a couple blocks away, snowboarded to our house, and got stuck with us into Monday. He made a nice little jump off the back-country run to add another dimension.
Since there is no getting on/leaving my block when it snows, it is completely silent (especially in the snow) and all to ourselves. Every time we tracked up an area of the property, we’d go on to the next spot. By the time we got back, it was fresh powder again. It’s been exhausting hiking uphill in snow for a week, but it’s been too much fun not to.
Anyway, I took lots of video and pictures, and I’d be happy to share, if you are interested (email me n let me know).
Here is a pic of the “bowl” run:

Aside from the Red Sox, the Brewers and Blue Jays also lose here. Each team’s draft pick from the Yanks is pushed back one round – the Brewers get a second-rounder from them for C.C. Sabathia, the Jays get their third-round pick for A.J. Burnett.
Guess we won’t be able to complain about the pick we get for Cabrera if they are getting a 3rd rounder for AJ Burnett.

They will do fantastic over the next 5-10 years

There should be some sort of dividing of revenue… for example, the Yankees could spend thirty-million on building baseball parks and academies and salt and solar powered vehicles in shitty places instead of having it go down the toilet for luxury tax.

Isn't there a "no whining" policy on this site?
The Mets are spending up a storm, too. NY/Boston always have jack to spend. Even in 1977, when NY went to the Feds for a loan because the city was in so much debt and were rebuffed, the Yanks had Reggie, et.al. ’Tis what ’tis. Do you hear Jamaica complain that the US has more resources and thus can train more sprinters with more money for the Olympics?

Why
They haven’t won the world series in what 8 years? Although they are probably the faves as we speak, they’re still much more likely to not win than to win the world series next year. In two years they’ll have the AJ Burnett albatross contract around their necks and Jeter lumbering up the middle (past a diving Jeter). Long term, big money contracts often times don’t look so good a few years down the line.

If you people honestly think this incredible discrepancy in payrolls has NO effect on ability to consistently compete….well, I don’t know what to say. You should know enough that the foolish argument of the Yankees not having WINNING THE WORLD SERIES AS PROOF is idiocy. The postseason is also completely fucked up and a crapshoot and should not be used for any kind of justification that the system is ok as is. The offseason is useless information, for many reasons. LOOK at winning percentage in large intervals….like 5 and 10 year chunks….then get back to me

NEW YORK (AP) — The founder of an investment fund that lost $1.4 billion with Bernard Madoff was discovered dead Tuesday after committing suicide at his Madison Avenue office, marking a grim turn in a scandal that has left investors around the world in financial ruin.
Rene-Thierry Magon de la Villehuchet was found sitting at his desk at about 8 a.m. with both wrists slashed, New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne said. A box cutter was found on the floor along with a bottle of sleeping pills on his desk. No suicide note was found.
…
But on Monday night, he told cleaning crews in his building that he wanted them out of his office by 7 p.m. because he was going to be working late.
Workers returned Tuesday morning and found the door locked. He was later discovered dead at his desk, with a garbage can placed near his body to apparently catch the blood, Browne said.
