This is exactly the potential prospect recreational drugs that me and many others come here for. Possibly addictive and dangerous if over-used? Definitely. But damn it's fun for a night!

Delaying AAA unfortunately makes sense in this situation. Hey, I got my first Pfizer vaccine shot on Monday. It feels more like progress when it happens to you!😊

So how stacked is the White Sox organization that they can cut a prospect who did so well at Kannapolis?

Actually they didn't cut him and to be honest I'm not sure I understand how that transaction took place. Officially, Long chose minor league free agency, but he didn't have enough service time to be a MiLB FA so I'm not entirely sure why that choice was up to him. Perhaps the initial release by the Rays ended the 7 yr FA rule's application to him and his deal with CWS was, like most minor league FA deals, just a one year contract and allowed him the freedom to go back on the market if he chose.

If this is true, hope the Giants did a better job of locking him up.

Not really. COVID is an old, fat person with comorbidities problem not the young and healthy. Those young, healthy players are very low-risk and many could have already had it asymptomatically.

Eh, some athletes in their 20's have had some pretty serious complications stemming from Covid.
