Fegan has opinions: P.O. Sox: Who gets priority on the shortstop depth chart? - Sox Machine James: Would love to be proven wrong with a quick recovery and return to form, but Everson Pereira has now missed the first two weeks of Cactus League action with his oblique strain and there’s three weeks until Opening Day. Starting him on the IL to open the season seems like the best way to cautiously get Pereira up to speed from an injury that can easily be reaggravated, and steer him away from the dueling incentives of trying to make the team and ease back in. If Pereira is out, that more easily enables a scenario where Acuña, Hays, Benintendi, Baldwin and Kelenic are the five outfielders breaking camp, since the Sox have indicated that Kelenic is an NRI they’re particularly interested in from the start.

Merk's notes: Acuña doesn't miss a beat in return, belts first White Sox homer - Acuña still playing SS in B games - Shane Smith moved to B game to avoid Cleveland a second time - Newcomb stretching out, ready for anything

I didn't judge a pitcher by a single appearance. I just said it was funny that the subject was getting lit up as the writer posted his article. The true definition of irony. A result that is the exact opposite of that which was intended, almost as if being mocked by fate. Thanks for the article. It was content-y. I post stuff, too. Most of it is thumb-twiddling until the actual games start. I jones for any actual reporting. Phalen turns out a bunch of this stuff. The "Here's a Move the Sox Should Consider Making" article about a guy put on waivers. Here's one about Eloy. White Sox fans might cringe at slugging disappointment's Blue Jays comeback bid It's all good.

I was actually hoping that Rolison would pass through waivers and get outrighted. I guess 7 weeks before pitchers and catchers report, teams are grabbing up every catcher and lefty reliever that comes over the wire. Rolison was DFAed to grab Romo.

Then I'm guessing the White Sox aren't ruing trying to slip Rolison through waivers.

If they're going to try to hold and win 1-run games, they should probably put their set-up guys and closer into the high-leverage situations instead of guys who will be throwing AAA innings for most of this season.

Once I click back into the topic listing, I may never think about Ryan Rolison again in my life.

Chris Murphy had a prettier outing than Newcomb.

The funniest part is that article was written during Monday's 17-9 shellacking of the Cubs at the hands of the Reds. Rolison came into the game in the 3rd with one out, and proceeded to give up: single, single, walk, double, walk, home run. 6 runs. I suppose the heads he's turning are watching balls fly out of the ball park. His spring ERA is 27.00, and his WHIP is 3.50

Jon Berti told him, "forgeddabout it, I'm-a the second baseman!!"

4 baserunners in the first, 1 run. Midseason form.

Apparently, there's a Padres' audio stream, but I don't know where to find it.

There go his chances at the HOF.

Meidroth had 3 errors at 2B and 9 at SS. Neither were anywhere near the most at either position.
