Greetings and salutations, everyone, welcome to fantasy baseball live, Rich Wilson. Welcome to Fantasy Baseball live or

just prospect podcasts. Today is the 27th of October, about 9 o'clock in the morning, getting

an early morning start to talk about prospects. And today, it is the Chicago White Sox minor league system.

It's a system that was kind of tough to write about in the past over the last five to seven

years. It's been a lot of fun to write about when you've got incredible talent like Iloi

Jimenez and Louis Robert and Andrew Vaughn and Nick Madrigal before he got

moved. I mean, there's a guys that are fun to write about, particularly like a guy like Nick

Madrigal who he can hit, great contact guys, a little bit of speed, no power, what's he going to do?

So always fun to think about those guys, write about them, and try to figure some things out as you're

kind of sharing this with you all. But their system is down. I mean, there's just no two ways

about it. But look, nobody in Chicago is complaining. The White Sox management is not complaining

because they've done exactly what you're supposed to do.

You're supposed to acquire players either through the draft, either through international

signings, or either through trades that are going to help your big league club or be used as

trade chips to trade to get players that help your big league club.

That's what they're there for.

And, you know, it's for systems that year over year just have great minor league systems,

but terrible major league systems, you're really not accomplishing anything.

And I think the Tampa Bay race have to be careful.

They did promote Wanda Franco, but, you know, we've got Josh Lowe.

We've got Vidal Brugon.

Shane Boz looks like he's coming up.
