Peralta out 2-3 months with thumb injury. Bet Cardinals wish Desmond was still on the market.

This is one of the funniest things I've ever read: David Kaplan ‏@thekapman 33m33 minutes ago @TomFornelli actually no they fired Renteria before they ever met with Joe.

Compared to two weeks ago, I love the construction of the bench. You have two guys with speed in Saladino and Shuck, as well as Avi who is a bad base runner but can score from 2nd on a base hit.

It's really incredible how Hahn was able to make all these moves and not give up the draft picks. The Jackson move caps off a fascinating, yet productive offseason. Kudos to Hahn.

QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Mar 7, 2016 -> 07:25 AM) Jose Quintana will his worst year with the Sox, but will still get 16+ wins. Media outlets will then begin to talk about him being one of the best values (output/contract) in baseball. This was an awesome post

I really don't think there's a chance Avi goes to the minors

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Mar 6, 2016 -> 11:19 PM) Do wonder if this creates LaRoche / Avi platoon, or if Avi still gets plenty of starts in the OF and Melky to DH more often. Avi will get plenty of at bats. What I like is this move hopefully allows him to not worry about defense

Time for Jackson to make up for ruining the basketball program of my favorite college team

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 6, 2016 -> 05:59 PM) If you are going to get drug to a kids movie, Zootopia wasn't half bad. They did a good job with Easter Eggs for the adults. Actually expected way more from it. Gave away best part of it (DMV) in the previews

Fantastic news! Balances out the roster so much better. Can't wait for the Chicago media to write stories about how everyone takes less to play for the Sox!

Loved the movie Creed. Thought Jordan did a phenomenal job

This ought to escalate things Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 2m2 minutes ago LaRoche hurt himself on the swing, lower right side. "It hurts," he said

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 10:04 PM) Lovie it is, per Shefty. Not seeing this anywhere....where you see it?

Saladino homer

Sounds like Sands is having a terrible defensive game

One reason why acquiring another bat is so important: Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 18m18 minutes ago Adam LaRoche exited the game earlier this inning with back spasms. #WhiteSox

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 10:04 PM) What haven't the Sox been doing in spring training that good teams do, and are there any links available proving they don't do these things or is it all speculation? Every quote from them the last few weeks is about focusing more in ST, etc.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 09:30 PM) DeAza Is this a guess?

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 08:00 PM) He is 100% saying all the right things...right now. I'm not thinking it will change, but let's see if he is making the same comments on a Wednesday night in April at the Cell when it's 38 degrees and there are 17 people in the stands. Or in Septemeber when they could be 8 games out of it. All of that might not happen, and the ra-ra stuff is always a staple at spring training, but let's see if he is still singing the same tune eight months from now. I honestly hope he is. As the Vice President to President Balta's "Ventura doesn't know how to handle Spring Training" campaign, I have been very pleased with everything I've heard about how the Sox are approaching Spring Training so far.

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 07:37 PM) The Sox are rumored to be looking for a LHB that plays CF and comes with team control. Just to throw something different out there, I'm going to guess Andrew Aplin from Houston. Keep in mind, it's only guess and nothing more. I hope that's not the big move. His PCL numbers are mediocre.

It's beyond pathetic that Richard Pitino is likely going to keep his job.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Mar 5, 2016 -> 06:43 PM) Puig Joc?

I have always liked Frazier, and so far he is saying all the right things http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/frazier...with-white-sox/

Players found out on Twitter.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Mar 4, 2016 -> 10:25 PM) Exactly. And I kinda feel like the Rockies would rather hold onto him for a few months rather than sell lower on him now. Absolutely, it's clear they're in no rush to give him up.
