fathom

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 05:01 PM) Yes, but my point is, he's not the Opening Day shortstop. That would be a jump from AA to the majors. AAA is the right test for him. Work against more mature pitching that can exploit weaknesses better, and not allow him to be purely a mistake hitter. He needs that step. Yeah never thought he would be opening day SS

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 05:46 PM) Find a list of position player prospects the White Sox have taken from AA to the majors in the past decade. And in Anderson's case, he is more raw than his age in terms of baseball experience. I find that very, very unlikely. Won't he be in AAA to start

He made it seem like Cespedes could be more likely due to no pick lost

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 04:18 PM) I'd be shocked if he was up before September, and more likely 2017. He's not ready. Never stopped the Sox before from rushing up a top prospect. If Saladino gets the job and struggles, Anderson is clearly next up.

Makes sense, as I'm sure we see Anderson up sooner than later

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 05:01 PM) They played each other and it wasn't even close. Yep and if they had same record I would agree Michigan should be higher.

Northwestern should be higher than Michigan. Fewer losses and way better win.

Reds might lose 110 games next year

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 02:47 PM) It really is. nightingale is usually really good with White Sox stuff, and when Hawk shows love for opposing players you can pretty must rest assured their name is somewhere on the wish list. Wouldn't shock me if we start to hear the Sox are interested in Cueto. Hawk gushed about him last year, saying he'd love to see him on the Sox.

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 03:34 PM) then who do we listen too when some news comes from the sox FO??? at what point to we choice to believe or not??? Hawk Harrelson and Bob Nightengale

QUOTE (LDF @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 03:28 PM) you may very well be right, but the point is, he is the only one talking from the FO and he has the eyes and ears of the owner, you can not dispute what he says unless there is some other inside source. i am using the numbers that was spell out by the sox org, and within those parameters i am dealing with.... no what if and well that is not what he meant.... \ Never, ever take what KW says to the media as the truth.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 03:21 PM) I think Oklahoma is a bad matchup. Bama has trouble with spread teams. They'll handle Michigan State Yep, I think Alabama beats Mich St pretty easily.

Cubs and Tampa discussing deals of Baez for a starting pitcher. To me, seems like Tampa is overvaluing Baez big time.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 02:52 PM) Take it for what's it's worth but Bruce Levine mentioned that Robertson is on the block. If Dodgers don't get Chapman, he'd make a ton of sense there. He could go back to his set-up roots.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 03:03 PM) Eh, we knew other teams would be interested in him since the 3B market sucks . Doesm't make a big difference who else wants him . How bad is Lonnie Chisenhall at 3rd base. He must be pretty bad since he plays a lot of RF . I've always liked his bat . Indians need OF's so maybe Chisenhall becomes available but his glove may not be suitable. I remember reading somewhere that Lonnie was incredible defensively in the OF

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 02:49 AM) I never said Bama is better. They absolutely have been better on D this year and their secondary has been much less susceptible to big plays. Bama's front 7 is absolutely awesome

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 03:45 AM) What is the estimated contract for him? 6/120? More or less? More

Sox just don't have the pieces the Reds are looking for. One reason Lawrie is a better fit.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 02:16 AM) What did he say ? Just all the talk about how awful the defense was during the first half of the season

Based on what Cooper said, I don't think Micah Johnson will be with the organization in a week or two

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 01:52 AM) I'll go for it... Sox trade: Erik Johnson, Micah Johnson, Frankie Montas and Avi Garcia to Oak Sox receive: Brett Lawrie, Josh Reddick & C Jacob Nottingham Sox trade: David Robertson to ChiCubs Sox receive: Starlin Castro & P Pierce Johnson Sox sign Mat Latos to 1yr/9mil contract with 12m option for 2017 Sox sign Joakim Soria to 2 yr/18M contract w/ 10M option for 2017 Lawrie and Latos would probably make the Sox have the worst clubhouse in baseball

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 01:50 AM) How about this: Pirates receive: Jose Quintana (They get the cost controlled, young and locked up pitcher to pair with Gerrit Cole) White Sox receive: Mitch Keller, Trey Supak, Austin Meadows and Cole Tucker. Heck no, need guys closer to being ready. These are too risky

Horrible game, horrible loss. Might as well lose rest of games now.

That kick was awful

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Dec 6, 2015 -> 03:01 PM) I fully expect him to be on the White Sox within the next week. Yep, and I bet it costs more than we think. Wouldn't be a shock to see a Lawrie for Erik Johnson swaps as A's looking for starting pitching.
