What? A blowout win for the good guys?
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 24, 2016 -> 08:57 AM) Even with the injuries and some scary line ups out there, the offense has looked better recently. Especially with Abreu starting to look like Abreu, it hasn't been so bad. It is also worth noting for Rodon since the calendar turned to August he is... 2-0 |24.2 IP| 5R| 4ER| 1.46 ERA| 19H |20K| 5 BB| 0.972 WHIP I saw on twitter he threw 21 changeups last night. You can tell he is learning. Still gets caught up in quite a few 10 pitch at bats that he can't seem to find his out pitch. Reminds me a bit of 2002/3 Jon Garland watching him pitch.

Arizona Fall League
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 24, 2016 -> 08:39 AM) Well he's doing sim games right now. I'd guess he throws in Fall Instructs. Winter ball I'm not sure, but we can ask him. Feels like that injury couldn't happened at a worse part of the season. Basically lost two years to it.

Arizona Fall League
Do we think Blake Hickman will try out Winter ball or the sox will just start him up next year?

In MY rule book, Anderson was 2-3 with a sacrifice groundout.

Dave Kaplan reports Kenny Williams holding back Rick Hahn
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 23, 2016 -> 01:27 PM) Semien has done pretty well. Bassitt hurt Phegley hurt Ravelo minor league fodder Trayce hurt Montas hurt Micah minor league fodder Of the 2 KW-esque trades, its not like they destroyed the White Sox. You do have to give up something to get something, but Semien is really the only one who would help right now and moving forward, would you rather have him at SS or Anderson? I'm pretty sure the Sox saw Semien as a 3B. Maybe if the trades weren't made, that is where he is right now. Any way, the team wouldn't really be any better now or really in future if they had passed on making these deals. I think looking at it like that is shortsighted. When we were good at pro scouting we flipped Mike Morse, Miguel Olivo and Jeremy Reed for Freddie Garcia. None of them did that well and it didn't hurt the white sox, but they had trade value and Garcia was really good. Now we trade 3 not very good players for 1 not very good player. Trading thompson for Frazier cost us the opportunity to trade him for someone useful OR keep him. We know what we got from Frazier, a replaceable year on a bad team. The team wouldn't be any better if it was better at evaluating talent? I disagree. We've paid over $100 million in contracts and traded over 10 prospects since 2015 and received very little value from it. Dan Jennings is probably our best acquisition through trade and Melky our best FA acquisition. The rest got us probably negative value.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 23, 2016 -> 01:25 PM) I'm not sure which leak this specific comment references, but innocent people probably get murdered over this leak. He's trying to claim hypocrisy because we weren't impressed that tv personality dr. drew claims clinton is unfit for presidency due to health even though the letter we have from her actual physician (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/doctors-note-hillary-clinton-is-in-excellent-physical-condition/) says she is fine, fake documents that said she was sick were fake and stupid, and donald trump and alt-right trolls are apparently doctors and able to tell from cut up videos that she has dementia -> ergo we are hypocrites for downplaying clinton's health concerns therefore health doesn't matter therefore it's fine for wikileaks to continue to dump citizens private data But the good news is that there are also reports that the fake physician that fake leaked the fake reports is now fake dead,and it was probably what jade helm was for.

Dave Kaplan reports Kenny Williams holding back Rick Hahn
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 23, 2016 -> 12:45 PM) Here's something I read the other day. For as disappointing Frazier has been, and the supposed future star Trayce Thompson is, Trayce has a 0.4 WAR in 80 games this year. Apparently, his stellar defense has not been so stellar. I was reading where he routes are awful. Frazier has a 1.1 War in about 35 more games. Still not thrilled with it. We still lost the opportunity to trade thompson for an actual upgrade. As it stands we'd be better off with the original expectation of David Freese (recently signed extension) than having spent 3 spects on Frazier. The pro scouting just has to get better for the sox. In this decade we've seen 2 of the the worst offensive seasons ever (Dunn/Laroche), a pitcher that led the league in runs allowed and shields historically awful season - all from acquired players with major league experience.
