Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN 1m1 minute ago White Sox could be a fit for James Loney, given the retirement of Adam LaRoche. Padres, perhaps, if Myers shifts to OF some days. Loney vs. righties 2015: 296/341/372 Career: 296/351/432 Ishikawa vs. righties 2015: 207/303/310 Career: 258/326/401

Bears watching Neil Solondz ‏@neilsolondz 1m1 minute ago #Rays James Loney has been told he will not make the team. Not sure if will be traded or put on waivers

Love this: Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 52s53 seconds ago Dan Hayes Retweeted Comcast SportsNet Jimmy Rollins calls Tyler Saladino "Emmanski" because he's so fundamentally sound.

Baltimore is unconditionally releasing Miguel Gonzalez. Was like a #3 or #4 starter presently, wasnt he? You could see the Sox taking him over Ishikawa or Sands, as starting pitching is still what I consider a 'hole' http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playe...&position=P Fangraphs paints him as a peripherals-defier: Profile: Miguel Gonzalez has been part of the Orioles' (formerly) peripherals-defying rotation since 2012. Like teammate Chris Tillman, Gonzalez put up ERAs far better than one would expect from his walk and strikeout rates from 2012 to 2014. Also like Tillman, Gonzalez turned into a pumpkin in 2015. While some might point out that Gonzalez was unlucky on fly balls going out of the park last season, that was really only part of the problem. His batting average on balls in play was roughly league average after three years of them being incredibly good. His strikeout rate improved a bit, but was still below average, but his walk rate increased at the same time. Gonzalez is not that great at keeping the ball on the ground, either, and he does not have swing-and-miss stuff. He turns 32 in May, so his best days are likely behind him. He's probably better than his 2014 performance, but 2015 was probably closer to his true talent than the semi-magical 2012-2014 run. If you believe he has batted ball suppression skills, he will still be available at a bargain price or at the back end of a draft. Maybe Gonzalez will surprise us again, but he is going to be a low end option in deep leagues at best. (Matt Klaassen) The Quick Opinion: After three seasons of batted ball magic from 2012-2014, the clock struck midnight for Miguel Gonzalez' unremarkable stuff in 2015. He was a bit unlucky, but he is at best a low end option in most fantasy drafts in 2016.

Jacob Turner is cut. Will be interesting to see if he was so bad that he gets into Charlotte. Would be nice. Carroll is also out

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 27s27 seconds ago Sources: Kim not expected to make #Orioles' Opening Day roster. Believed willing to go to Triple A; must consent to any demotion.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 40s40 seconds ago #WhiteSox down to 31 players in camp. In-house battle for last man is down to: Jerry Sands, Travis Ishikawa or possibly 13th pitcher.

Daryl Van Schouwen ‏@CST_soxvan 54s55 seconds ago Roster cuts today. Not official but Davidson, Carlos Sanchez, Leury Garcia, Kahnle, Coats appear to be among them.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 3s3 seconds ago #WhiteSox appear to have several cuts on the way. Should have more in a bit.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 04:24 PM) Not a popular opinion, but I wouldn't mind Davidson getting a crack at the DH position sometime this year Only if the season has gone south

The dream is alive maybe? http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/03/carl...ree-agency.html

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 2m2 minutes ago Appears to be a few cuts coming today. Tim Anderson's locker was empty. #WhiteSox

Bruce Levine ‏@MLBBruceLevine 17m17 minutes ago More cuts for the White Sox today . Players trying to dodge Rick Renteria coming to get them Also- Could relate to Gavin Floyd mayyyybe being available for a starting spot if we want that at some point here: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/aaron-sanch...ontos-rotation/

Was Jennings over Zach Phillips a mistake?

Bernie Pleskoff ‏@BerniePleskoff 2m2 minutes ago Heard it in the press box: #Athletics on the prowl to move some older players and are looking for middle infielders.

This is worth a click for any Paulie fan: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/konerko-gre...ned-multitudes/

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 21, 2016 -> 11:34 AM) Johnson, Lombardozzi, and Danish have been sent down. 40 in camp. erik johnson on a winning team should not be a starter. First guy up from AAA is kind of the ideal slot for him.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 37s38 seconds ago Adam LaRoche's retirement paperwork has been filed.

So what's the lie? I think someone mentioned a guess a while back --- ten pages back, 2 minutes ago

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 55s56 seconds ago Chris Sale said #WhiteSox have heard three different versions of why this decision came down from Kenny Williams. Said that's biggest issue.

Wish someone could indicate to Chris Sale that nobody died

Kill me now Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 28s28 seconds ago Chris Sale has. Adam LaRoche and Drake LaRoche uniforms hanging in his Whitesox locker

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 02:10 PM) Wonder how Drake is going to feel 30 years from now when he's a few million lighter in his inheritance he will still be able to buy a pony either way

We think we were cheap, re: OF --but Indians had needs too and went cheaper: Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal now Source: #Indians signing free-agent OF Marlon Byrd to minor-league deal.

It does bear pointing out we acted here with the swiftness and decisiveness that mightve better been used when we faced a real threat of a situation, like with s***head Oney But i do support what the Sox are doing here.
