Moustakas linked to Sox again
Donaldson and his leg injuries are scary. Also I think there is no chance in hell the Rockies let Arenado get away

Moustakas linked to Sox again
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 05:28 AM) I’d rather add Donaldson next offseason quite frankly. Agreed and I think probably 99 pct of us on here would agree

Moustakas linked to Sox again
QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 04:41 AM) I fear the Sox are going to get too excited, think they are being smarter than everyone else and sign him.....When they should have sat back and trusted the process. Kind of agree with Greg that maybe Sox are moving on from their plan to go after Manny.

Moustakas linked to Sox again
QUOTE (Jack Parkman @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 03:07 AM) Nah, I read it as they aren't adding anyone that will be on the 25 man. 40 man additions only. Hahn said "similar to Santiago" which I read as scrap heap pickups with upside only. Pretty sure he put the kibash on Moustakas. Got a different impression from his appearance on the sports talk live podcast. Absolutely didn't rule out adding someone if it fits long-term and doesn't block a prospect

Moustakas linked to Sox again
QUOTE (Lillian @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 12:47 AM) No one has commented on the fact that Moustakas had 24 HR's, in just 74 road games. KC is known as a park that is not conducive to the long ball. What would you expect him to hit, at Guaranteed Rate Field? Does he still get to face WSox pitching?

Moustakas linked to Sox again
QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 12:03 AM) I think the Royals get him. The Yankees will only want to give him a short deal, and they don't have enough CBT space to make that short deal enticing. The Royals can give him three or four years, call it goodwill to fans, and lose nothing toward their next contender. What a waste that would be for KC. Would be paying a decent amount of money when they are rebuilding and would lose the compensation pick.

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 21, 2018 -> 12:01 AM) So aside from going back to the Royals...where else could he realistically land? This Yankees trade made things interesting. Cardinals maybe?

**World Soxtalk Championship Wrestling Thread V**
QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Feb 20, 2018 -> 03:36 AM) So, Raw has opened with a 7 person gauntlet match... it's... 8:40pm and the match still isn't over. Not sure how I feel about this. Pure wrestling for nearly 2 hours. It's been great. Not sure how anyone could be disappointed in it

2018 MLB Draft
QUOTE (DirtySox @ Feb 17, 2018 -> 09:04 PM) Carlos Collazo @CarlosACollazo 4m4 minutes ago More More on what @kileymcd reported. Top high school pitcher Ethan Hankins experienced some shoulder tightness in a recent start. He'll get it looked into further to make sure it's nothing major. #mlbdraft I can't imagine Sox would take a hard throwing righty prep pitcher this early in draft. However a serious injury for him would likely push him out of top 3 and take another player away Sox could draft

2018 Spring Training notes and random tweets
Chuck and Guff have done an amazing job covering the rebuild over the last year. The Kopech podcast was great. I wonder if they will do another Cornerstones show this season.

Yu Darvish to Cubs
QUOTE (wrathofhahn @ Feb 11, 2018 -> 12:23 AM) Arrietta though lost a bunch off his fastball last year. Same thing happened to shields. Doubt he performs at a high level for more then a cpl of years unless he regains lost vo Darvish still throws the heat even if he gets too careful as Japanese pitchers do Yu has a ton more mileage on his arm and as I mentioned a while ago, the list of Japanese pitchers who perform well in their 30s is very small.

2017-2018 MLB player movement rumors and reports
QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 10, 2018 -> 08:58 PM) It's actually 6/126 which is much better, but he can reach $150 with incentives. Also will make a prediction the Cubs fans will turn on him very, very quickly

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 10, 2018 -> 07:53 PM) BREAKING: Yu Darvish to #Cubs, six year-deal in $150M range, sources tell The Athletic. Pending physical. That deal will not age well, but Theo will just spend more money to cover the holes.

White Sox interested in adding a DH
I think the Sox scouts just really liked Rutherford, even though guys like KLaw were very disappointed with what they were seeing during 2017

Dave Duncan joins White Sox pitching staff
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 8, 2018 -> 09:54 PM) That was one of my favorite series ever. From the 20 run explosion to start, and it ended with Anthony Reyes throwing a perfect game, except for one pitch to Thome and took the L. That was when the 2006 team was playing better than any Sox team I've ever seen. That 1-0 game was awesome with Jenks throwing like 200 mph
