White Sox Sign Alcides Escobar
Escobar fits the Sox profile. Not sure why we need him. What to do with the 4A guys who have a good spring. If you are basing your roster off of spring players that is not good.

Guess the Opening Day 25 Man
I could be wrong but he said he is not full strength. The Slum Times says he may be ready but it is not really clear. No reason to rush him if he will be pitching in the World Series later.

Eloy officially got paid
Not only is Tommy John one of the most famous Sox names, he was also traded for Dick Allen as I recall.

Guess the Opening Day 25 Man
Did not realize Herrera recovering from fractured foot is not planning on Opening Day.

Sox vs. Arizona March 20th 2019
I think Gio will be reassigned by mid-season if he continues to perform like the worst starter in the league.

Sox vs. Arizona March 20th 2019
Wish there could be roster room for Mendick Rondon and Yolmer but those days are gone. Some teams would prefer to have a new pitcher for every batter past the fifth inning. I guess teams cannot afford a few extra bench players. Tough times are why I don't worry about owners v players. They can figure it out when we hear that Trout's deal was a bargain.

Really off the mark over a spring game and I think you know that.

Eloy officially got paid
If we had a Joc P in CF and another bat like Eloy or Machado the offense would be ok. Palka hitting .095.

Dane Dunning had Tommy John today
Michael Fulmer come on down! Baseball has started in Japan.

Optimistic Fan Thread
This team will need offense to cover up their other mistakes. Yoan and TA could really help.

Red Line Radio Hahn Interview
One suggestion was to bring up any youngsters who might be able to perform so the fans have a reason to watch or hope. I was hoping to see a Joc Pedersen trade to upgrade the OF. I don't think Garcia Engel and Jay are a major league outfield. Eloy Joc and Palka I might watch.

You are welcome to complain but it's pointless. Vote with your feet not your fingers.

Because you have nothing to offer. Got it.

Red Line Radio Hahn Interview
There are only a few franchises that continually succeed. The Sox are not one of them. Complainers should be more constructive. The injuries are disturbing but is there a solution?

Trout about to sign 12/430 deal
He gets well paid without any hassle.

Dane Dunning had Tommy John today
They need more analytics about why some are prone to this and what stresses to avoid. I also suspect supplements could play a role.

Guess the Opening Day 25 Man
I would rather watch a minor league game than that weak-kneed lineup.

3/18 vs Giants, 3pm, whitesox.com
Leury might last two weeks and head for the dl. I would never rely upon him.
-
Gio Gonzalez
Cooper will have Nova pitching like an ace in no time. The bottom line was that fans could not bear to watch any more Shields or M Gonzalez while Giolito trails the whole league. What a sorry story.

3/18 vs Giants, 3pm, whitesox.com
The whole OF are fringe guys. When roster space is limited they don't add much value. Palka should see some at bats.

Roster Cuts Thread
It might be worth considering that Reinsdorf has no reason to trust the people in charge of spending his money. We hear there are revenue streams accruing but it surely would not be franchise ticket sales. Time to cash in.

Sox vs. Ariz. 03/17
You are only here for the attention. Hardly an original thought.

3/16 vs Dodgers, 3pm, NBCSC
Yes they say rbi is an opportunity stat and supposedly clutch hitters regress to the mean. If you could have Joc Eloy Palka Alonso Jose in the lineup most days you might not have a last place offense. I know Palka butchered a fly ball yesterday while the Yankee cf butchered two balls.

MLBPA proposals
Important exception if the inning ends first, no three batter rule. With two outs you can bring your loogy in.
