DiCaro makes things up on a daily basis. Don't pay any attention to her.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 12:22 PM) How can you define it? 24/7? During games? On the road? In meetings and on-field drills? Going over draft boards or having access to Hahn's "Big Board," like an internship? His own locker and uniform? The conditions were established by last year's practices.

I've forgotten..what were the problems in the clubhouse last year?

Ventura was the only guy to start a fight with Frank Thomas as I recall. Don't think he's a p****.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 10:51 AM) I believe that some sort of that type of conversation happened, but I don't think the Sox really understood that LaRoche meant that his kid would be there 100% of the time. Yes, but after more than a year of acting like he was 100% part of the clubhouse, they changed the policy.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 10:43 AM) Sox mgmt completely botched yesterday. Yesterday? How about most of the past 30 years?

The kid has his own locker at home and on the road, with his own name on it. I'm on the side of: there was a verbal agreement of some sort. In the business world, your word is good as gold. Companies that break verbal promises don't survive long. He should have never been allowed in in the first place.

I find it disturbing all the cheap shots being taken at Laroche. Not necessarily here, but all over the media. BAD FATHER, KID CAN'T READ..stuff like that. Lot of angry/disturbed people out there.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 16, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) How old is his kid? I think he's around 14 or so.

Should have never been allowed in the first place.

85

PANIC!!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 7, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) The White Sox didn't get a single homer from a LHB against a LHP all season in 2015? Really? That would be correct.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 11:20 AM) I'm all for Sands being LaRoche's platoon partner, but I think we're jumping the gun a bit when talking about him being an everyday starter. You can't have him for that. I have him starting in RF. You need to find somebody else.

I'm driving the Jerry Sands bandwagon. The guy at least looks like he could do some damage.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Mar 3, 2016 -> 04:59 PM) I really don't want Danks on this team anymore also. Anyone else getting lit up nobody would care. With him though, it brings out the flashbacks.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Mar 2, 2016 -> 08:22 PM) Then why wouldn't they just DFA him and hope someone picks him up for the waiver fee? Because no one will.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 12:21 PM) Freedom of Speech is a two way street. Just because you have the right to say something stupid, doesn't negate somebody else's freedom of speech to respond as to exactly how stupid it was. We're all going to say something stupid eventually and there are a million people out there just waiting to pounce. That's why I don't ever post to facebook, twitter, etc.

The first amendment gives us all the right to post insensitive things on social media and then get torched by SJWs and get fired from our jobs, yet not get imprisoned. yay!

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 09:31 AM) I don't want to feel this way, help me. That feeling comes with being a Sox fan. There is no cure, but it is not terminal.

If he had any sense he would have taken less to play SS for one year and hope for a rebound. His bat doesn't play in LF, I have no idea why he agreed to do that.

MLB revenues are quadruple what they were in 1996.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 26, 2016 -> 11:24 AM) This was way worse last year. Garcia is really the only "black hole" in the lineup now. LaRoche is used vs just RHP has to be better and I don't expect Melky to be terrible. That being said, if LaRoche and Melky are terrible, the White Sox will probably finish in 5th again. I would pencil SS in as a black hole until proven otherwise.

he had one game was destroyed by Twins. 8 earned runs.
