QUOTE (shysocks @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:03 AM) Nice and simple, just like it was with Rodon. It wasn't that simple with Rodon.

Misc. Sox Quotes & Tweets
QUOTE (shysocks @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 04:24 PM) If you picked two at random, it could be worse. Active players with MVP hardware: AL: Donaldson Trout Miggy Verlander Josh Hamilton* Mauer Pedroia A-Rod* Morneau Ichiro NL: Harper Kershaw McCutchen Posey Braun Votto Pujols* Rollins Ryan Howard* * = Worse. Factors in contract. Votto is borderline. Verlander and Mauer are worse as well.

That was fast. I'm surprised that they chose Gonzalez over him.

Just say "No" to drunken quitters. Find someone that wants to be here for something other than a paycheck and to be a media darling. This isn't 2005. Stop trying to re-live the past, guys.

White Sox Acquire James Shields
QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jun 7, 2016 -> 11:53 AM) And by "gutting" their farm system it appears they went to the World Series twice and the playoffs what four times in the last eight years? I'd take that in a New York minute. They took their turn dominating the division much like the Indians in the 90's and the Twins in the 00's and maybe the Royals right now. Geez...I wonder who is missing from that group? Mark It's almost as if you enjoy the Sox doing poorly.

White Sox Acquire James Shields
Shields could be a solid #2 if they can control his gopher balls and work with his velocity loss.

6/3 Game Thread - White Sox @ Tigers
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jun 3, 2016 -> 11:57 AM) Will he be on a strict pitch count since he's coming back from injury? No idea at this point. Nothing's been reported so far and he hasn't had any pain or difficulty in his prep work. I have a feeling that Ausmus may take him on an inning by inning approach, though.

Your Trade Target Wishlist
Adam Lind and Kelly Johnson would be on my wish list. I'd also like another vet reliever - Maybe David Phelps. Jason Coats deserves a look as a LF/DH option this year.

White Sox Prospects of the Month, May 2016
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 2, 2016 -> 12:59 PM) He should be. He's a lefty bat, which the team needs. He plays 1B above average, and it might be good to get Abreu to DH some days. The DH slot is currently manned by a guy who doesn't hit righties well (Garcia). He draws a ton of walks, gets on base (always a need). And he gives you a PH option, especially in interleague games, that likely does much better than Sands. Can Hayes play any position besides 1B?

Is Hayes a contender for a Sox bench spot?

Austin Jackson has turf toe
QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ May 31, 2016 -> 05:56 PM) Turf toe is a very tricky thing. Larry Czonka had to retire because of it in football because it wouldn't go away. Hurts the Sox defensively to be sure. Mark Deion Sanders struggled with it for quite a few seasons as well.

Credit Scores
Credit scores are crap. The more in debt you are, the better your score. How does having less money to spend equal a better credit risk?
