QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 25, 2016 -> 12:04 AM) So Danks and Avi are getting benched and skipped regularly? What about loyalty? Uvthink I understand and agree with your comment. They made the team and then get skipped over more than once early in the season. An argument could be made that they have not been producing I suppose but Danks did better his last time out. Maybe loyalty as we know it leftvwitg the debacle we saw between KW and Laroche

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 08:35 PM) TRADE EATON AND AVI FOR ABREU AND DANKS Interesting. Crazy but interesting

Trade Eaton now!

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 08:07 PM) It wouldn't surprise me at all if Abreu hits .400 from tomorrow to the All Star Break. He's going to hit. I know the legend can do it

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 08:06 PM) You're worried about Jose Abreu over a couple bad weeks, but don't want to give up on Avi after 1,000 bad at-bats. Makes perfect sense. I am entitled to my baseless fears as much as the rest of you naysayers are wrong about Avi

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 08:03 PM) I just hope he's not 79 because that's the year he was actually born. kidding I hear you LOL. A couple atbars he hits the ball hard and then its back to k,'s and ground outs

I have to admit now that I am concerned about Abreu

Defense good today but the Rangers are making hard contact

Trade them all

Lawrie

It might be harder to get to Canada, if they build a wall to keep Trump out so let's win now

I hear the ball travels farther up North of the border. Hope the Sox blast a few

Hope our pitching keeps the Jays in check

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 01:31 AM) well those guys have track records of mostly excellence. avi has a track record of mostly suck. Garcia is still learning. Guys may have proven track records from 2015 and back but that doesn't do anything for this year. All I am saying is don't give up on a player so quickly. The alternative to him isn't always better

why is it that some people panic so quickly and gibe up on players? If Avi Garcia, et al, is batting a buck nothing at the all-star break then maybe we have to make a move. More than half our hitters are batting below the Mendoza Line 18 games into the season including our big two of Abreu and Frazier

Not over yet. But when the offense leaves the bases loaded twice I guess you get what you deserve

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:05 PM) Avila was bound to get hurt at some point.. Bring up Smith Day to day. I wonder if they can go with only one healthy catcher

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 08:01 PM) Did Avila hurt himself going into second? That looked like he was limping. Stone speculating calf injury?

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 07:34 PM) Well he's starting whack it around.... hopefully this is the beginning of the end of the slump. I think Abreu is coming around two outs but both hard hit balls

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Apr 23, 2016 -> 06:42 PM) Avi needs to go to charlotte. Clear his mind a lil. Save him while theres hope If we are going to make those kinds if personnel moves based on early results several players need to go down

Frazier

Jackson gave it his best and it was close

FRAZIER HR

Rookie base running mistake
