Off-season 40 man roster
I was way wrong on Rienzo. I actually thought he was going to end up being a solid 5th starter for us but he just sucks.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 30, 2014 -> 10:29 AM) He had absolute garbage last year and somehow won. It might have been his best season in his career when you consider what he had. God no. Like I said, it's easy to blame the supporting cast and they absolutely deserve their share of the blame but he was really, really bad for the majority of last year too. He missed a lot of open receivers last year.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 30, 2014 -> 10:20 AM) He threw at least one pick where the wideout ran the wrong route. He's getting crushed, etc. Point is, even the all time greats are human to an extent. He doesn't have great weapons anymore but the last 2 years he's been making some absolutely horrible reads and throws. People just want to blame the supporting cast but he's been bad as well.

Sale vs. Ventura
Sale could have stabbed me and Robin could have saved my life and I still would have sided with Chris. But seriously, not a huge deal if it was behind closed doors.

Fire at FAA facility in Aurora shuts down ORD and MDW
One of my good friend's got married this past weekend and had about 15 family members that couldn't get into town because of this. No fun.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 03:10 PM) Love it. I'm not ready to write him off completely yet, but he definitely needs to sit for a while. Keep his chin up, keep working hard, and he'll get another chance. I actually give Marrone a s*** ton of credit here. The Bills actually have a pretty decent squad if they can get any type of qb play, he didn't want until it was too late to make this move.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:55 PM) Yes. He was good the first two weeks but it wasn't really fluid, just kind of wide open passes. He's played terribly the past 2 weeks. Missing wide open guys, not sensing pressure, taking big hits, throwing really, really bad INTs. If it wasn't for the lucky 80 yard bomb yesterday to Mike Williams, his line would look even worse. Frankly, just having a guy who can hit a pass 10-15 yards downfield on a semi-consistent basis will be a breath of fresh air. Isn't it fun drafting qb's in the 1st round that don't pan out?

2014 AL Central catch-all thread
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:35 PM) Let Oney and Ozney become Twins fans. Their behavior sitting behind the White Sox dugout hoping the White Sox finish last ( I was sitting right behind them) about a month ago was shockingly (sarcasm) classless. If they want to hate the White Sox, fine. But don't go to USCF and sit in White Sox house seats for nothing, and do that. The Guillen kids would never be classless, that's an outrageous claim.

Cue meltdown in 3...2...
I'm not worried about it because I don't think it's going to happen but I'm definitely not a fan of bullpenning Rodon for this season. We need starting pitchers, if he's going to be on the Major League team, he should be starting.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 01:08 PM) A really disappointing thing about yesterday is the offense really was humming along until Bennett couldnt break the plane. I really do think he broke it but somehow we had no good camera angle to confirm that.

Let's Grade the Players, Coaches, Hahn for 2014
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 12:00 PM) That particular trade didn't work, but as has been discussed a zillion times, the philosophy behind the trade is valid. I fault Hahn less for that one. Oh I completely agree. I was extremely happy when that trade was made as that was the exact type of deal that I wanted him to make but Davidson was obviously awful this year so I can't rate the trade a success even though I love the thought process behind it.

Let's Grade the Players, Coaches, Hahn for 2014
QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 11:46 AM) We lost 89 games. Team has pathetic bullpen and defense. It's going to be very hard to fix the defense. It really is. You guys are kind graders IMO. Yes he deserves eternal praise for Abreu and Eaton. How could Hahn get an A? You have to remember that he didn't build the team from scratch so you can't just base his rating off of the Sox win-loss record. I'd personally probably give him a B because I feel like there were a few things he could have done a bit better and Davidson being god awful didn't help things but overall he had a pretty good year.

I really wish I could be at Raw tonight, always interesting to see how the crowd is going to be. I want CM Sandow to happen so bad.

Barring Gostkowski outscoring Ridley by 20 tonight, I'm going to be 4-0 in my main league for the first time ever. I'll also be 3-0 in my leagues these last 2 weeks. Still just waiting for everything to fall apart.

2015 Pen thoughts
QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 04:36 PM) Well then..... Chicago White Sox @whitesox 6m Nate Jones said he feels great after surgery & that his back and hip also feel good. He hopes to begin throwing the week before Thanksgiving ....So much for him being out all/most of next year?? No idea how the recovery on that works but it'll be interesting to see what the velocity is like.
