Canes sign Darling. 4 years, 4.15 million.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 5, 2017 -> 04:35 PM) it's all the slaying they do after the game. Nah that was just Gordon Beckham.

Sox are 8-0 when team hits 2+ homers in a game. Clearly the mashing ways are needed for sustained success.

Kolby Allard (whose name was thrown around in Q rumors) for the Braves affiliate had a very good start. He and Kopech was a dandy pitching matchup. And Eddy Alvarez average is quickly rising...

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ May 3, 2017 -> 10:34 AM) Not sure how accurate this radar gun is but Giolito's only throwing 88-90 Minor league gun is a touch slow, but he isn't throwing 95+ out there. No idea why they aren't calling for his curveball more.

That whole Knights lineup just looks like they're brimming in confidence. Even Engel looks dangerous. Just missed a HR by inches.

QUOTE (WBWSF @ May 3, 2017 -> 07:42 AM) Looking back at Dunns time with the White Sox has never been explained. Was he hurt? Did he lose his desire to play after signing a big long term contract? Didn't he like playing for the White Sox? His appendix was taken out.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:54 PM) Let me take you back to a game last May in Kansas City... Seriously. 6-0 isn't exactly a blowout. Plus with Q's luck, something f***ed up is bound to happen. I love this move by Rick.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2017 -> 09:46 PM) The AAA game with Giolito? Nicely done.

Sanchez is so good, he's even taking walks now.

Nice play Sanchez! Hell of an outing Q!

TA has to show more patience. Pitchers aren't even throwing him strikes to get him out.

Geo has called one hell of a game.

Lost in all this is Jose Quintana getting some damn run support... and then some tonight.

Yolmer with 3 hits.

Did Twins and Royals switch teams defensively?

QUOTE (bmags @ May 2, 2017 -> 08:48 PM) lol sure. You need to put more caveats around a ridiculous quote like that. I don't need to. I'm not as butt hurt as others with what asinine comments Hawk makes game by game, regardless if its taken out of context.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 2, 2017 -> 08:44 PM) What context is he missing? Before he said that, Hawk said "maybe, just maybe". He wasn't guaranteeing it would be the greatest.

QUOTE (Blackout Friday @ May 2, 2017 -> 08:43 PM) Context and verbatim are not the same thing. I wasn't even gonna go there.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 2, 2017 -> 08:40 PM) lol Hawk. "the avi trade will be one of the greatest trades in White Sox history" Way to take what he said out of context.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 2, 2017 -> 06:43 PM) Danny Hayes continues to intrigue me. Assuming he cuts his strikeouts back to his usual levels I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing him get a chance after the trade deadline. Meh, I see more Andy Wilkins in Hayes. Hope I'm wrong, but I've seen too many older 1B prospects put up solid AAA numbers come and go in our system.

Some people here would've despised Jose Valentin when he was around.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ May 1, 2017 -> 10:48 AM) That Trubisky trade is so dumb. They gave up THREE additional picks to move up ONE spot when it wasn't even certain that SF would take him or that there was a better offer for that pick. Blame the Bears for winning that meaningless game last year against the 49ers.

Wasn't that the same injury Peavy had? (albeit I believe Peavy completely tore his)

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 29, 2017 -> 01:26 PM) 5 picks, only 1 defensive player, and 3 guys from D2 schools. I hope Pace is as smart as he thinks he is. Considering his last two drafts second round on were pretty good, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt right now.
