QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ May 3, 2016 -> 03:26 PM) Or there just went the Laroche money Not sure what this means. You mean like we're going to spend it on Lincecum or something?

Erik Johnson's control problems need to get righted fast. This is the chance he has long felt denied him I'm sure, so now it's time to go in and attack hitters. Gonzalez, Turner, Beck (& Lincecum) could be right behind him if he doesnt savor this opportunity.

Stunning. Money isnt everything to the Sox i guess. Lets just say is a great guy for this clubhouse, longtime Sox face, and hopefully his teammates are professional enough to understand what's happening.

Scot Gregor ‏@scotgregor 4s4 seconds ago Vegas love for #WhiteSox, who opened season at 33/1 to win World Series, per @BovadaLV. Odds have dropped to 12/1

Sox offense amongst all MLB: 6th least likely to strikeout 11th most likely to make contact 15th best RC+ (offensive value factoring in park & league effects) 15th best OBP 14th best batting average 17th best wOBA 18th most likely to draw a walk 20th in SLG We're 24th in BABIP which, if you care to make that leap, could suggest we've been quite unlucky once the ball comes off our bat. Though there is not much really to go on regarding that yet. We are unfortunately 4th least likely to hit a line drive. 7th lowest Hard%.

Not said in a Sox context, but still of note: But Tim Lincecum, who will stage his long-awaited showcase on Friday, according to MLB Network's Jon Heyman, still could make sense.

Sox offensive WAR has risen from bottom of the MLB to now hovering just short of being the median team

hah!

kil me now

Thought Frazier was slightly faster than that

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 30, 2016 -> 10:40 PM) Outside of Petricka, the bullpen has been fine. i do not loathe Duke. Tonight that was one horrific moment but I have some faith there. In an ideal world he moves down to the Jennings role of course and we trade for a special player

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 30, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Should they seriously consider keeping Carlos Sanchez and send down Saladino? Hah, now we are taking the Saladino HOF bust and taping Sanchez's face over it but in all seriousness--- dont know if sanchez is a SS. Seems like he is more just a 2b/3b type

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 30, 2016 -> 09:52 PM) Adam Eaton is very good a baseball and I'm glad he plays for the White Sox. im glad he annoyed everyone in AZ

Even is AJax doesnt bring tons of offense this year, he has completely changed that OF. Eaton can do so much more now

Lol eaton's uniform looks like a thoroughly soiled cloth today my friends

This Game

In all seriousness - Sanchez is such a good defensive 2b that i would be fine with him being a MLB starting regular there if he could give me like a .710 OPS. Dont know if it's possible but it's not the least likely thing in the world. As has been mentioned, he does not have a SS arm

Carlos Sanchez sucks but Jose Abreu sucks MORE

it is a bad sign that lincecum canceled his big showcase day (i think thats what happened, at least)

Lincecum whispers are mounting

Bruce Levine ‏@MLBBruceLevine 4m4 minutes ago AJ Pierzynski on getting traded . Trust me neither Chicago team wants me .

Some Sox players (wrongly) surely feel LaRoche was forced out or something along those lines. If Danks is incredibly popular amongst teammates, that gives you pause re: what it does to chemistry. Maybe they skip him again and do that a few more times when they can. Use Gonzalez.
