Jose Abreu with 1st Sox cycle in 17 years
QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 05:14 PM) I've sensed a lot of anti Abreu talk on the site. You haven't? People want him traded. People ignoring his 31/90 like it's nothing. I've given people a chance on my praise Jose posts. Silence. You haven't read the posts saying if we can get anything good get rid of Jose? I've said we need some hard core older White Sox when we get good again to go with the kids. Silence. Why would you block a die-hard Sox fan. Cause his opinion differs from yours? Sure I get mad when I feel like people are dissing Abreu and Davidson. I get frustrated. So I keep trying to sway opinion or at least get somebody to offer some praise, in this case Jose and/or Davidson. Now a guy like Saladino? In the past I praised him as well. People said he was utility at best. They were right. I was wrong. I admit it and shut up. Saladino is no good. I do agree. You literally just proved his point about yelling at a cloud and made up some story about people on this site not appreciating Abreu And Pants Rowland can't read your reply because he blocked you

Trade avi in the offseason?
QUOTE (WBWSF @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 04:08 PM) 1) Reed is only 29 years old. 2) Reed is better than anybody the team has now in the bullpen, which isn't saying much. This has now become the worse White Sox bullpen since 1970. 1. Reed doesn't turn this bullpen into a better bullpen automatically. 2. Rebuilding. Buckle up

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 01:15 PM) Sliding into first base. Completely avoidable. Every season there are more and more examples of why you should not slide into first and every year players do it anyways

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 12:38 PM) I realize Alshon was always hurt but I really didn't like giving up the only real passing weapon we had for nothing. We have good running backs and solid TE's (hopefully Shaheen can emerge as the season goes on) but our WR corps opened the year bad and is now a total dumpster fire. Creates opportunities so hopefully, someone rises from the ashes of this corps. I am starting to come around to the fact that Alshon didn't want to be in Chicago. Many beat writers have alluded to or even come right out and said it. They should have traded him instead of tagging him but I think Pace felt he could re-sign him. Unfortunate mistake I kept an eye on him yesterday and he had a less than pedestrian game

i believe one of the beat guys tweeted that TAs upswing coincided with him starting to see a grief counselor in late July

Jose Abreu with 1st Sox cycle in 17 years
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 11, 2017 -> 10:07 AM) It's amazing it's only the 6th cycle in team history. The other amazing thing was last week when the Sox went back to back to start the game, it was only the 3rd time ever they did that. Also amazing: Tim Anderson was one double away from a cycle The sox had 3(!!!) players with a home run and a triple (Yolmer, TA, Abreu)

Are we allowed to get nervous about Moncada at this point?
QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 10, 2017 -> 06:11 PM) Whatever happened to "no we're not bringing this guy up this season"? I think maybe our expectations are not realistic. Some guys look great when there is a lot of talent around them. That never happened, sorry. It was pretty universally agreed that once that super 2 time was up, unless he was complete dogs*** in the minors he was coming up

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 10, 2017 -> 07:27 PM) Maybe you right, I just remember a few questions right when the pick was made . And he has never shown anything on the field. Floyd has had his concussion problems, but he has shown he's a legit pass rusher. He hasn't shown anything, that's for sure. It's a shame because he was explosive in college

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 10, 2017 -> 06:18 PM) While I agree with your thoughts about injuries, the kid was injured when Pace drafted him. I think Pace gets some blame for that pick. It's not the same injury each time, but he took a chance and lost there. Nobody knew he was injured until OTAs, White thought he just had soreness from all of the work at the combine

Ongoing storm disaster thread
QUOTE (raBBit @ Sep 10, 2017 -> 04:48 PM) Did most evacuate? Seems like it's not living up to the hype, thank god. Yea most evacuated but there is always the stubborn ones. I still see it listed as Cat 3, and the back end of the storm is supposed to be the stronger part of the storm. Plus, Jose might just follow it

QUOTE (Lillian @ Sep 9, 2017 -> 07:25 PM) Jose will probably be the #3, or 4 hitter and veteran leader, for the young contending club in 2019 and I believe that they will try to extend him. If he stays in his current shape, which is perhaps the best he's been since coming to the States, the front office may have confidence in his ability to be productive, into his mid 30's. I suspect that by then, he will be the DH. He is the clubhouse leader, especially for the Latin players, particularly Jimenez, Robert and Moncada. It wouldn't surprise me if Hahn sees both Abreu and Avi as part of the core, going into their window of contention. I'm not a big fan of having the entire team be kids. They are going to need some leadership. It would be hard to go out and bring in another veteran, who would be as effective in that role. But then, I guess most of you have already concluded the same thing. They very likely are not http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?s=...t&p=3559491

Reverse Standings Thread
QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Sep 9, 2017 -> 01:35 AM) It is hard to rebuild when your first round picks include Rodon, Fulmer, Collins, and Burger. It's hard to read your thoughts on a rebuild when it is apparent that you don't understand what a rebuild is.

My totally biased review of Giolito's performance tonight
QUOTE (He Gawn @ Sep 9, 2017 -> 06:57 AM) I'm glad Sale recognizes that those were ugly jerseys, despite Reinsdorf's blindness. A frail minded pitcher could let that into his head, but he knew he had done as well as he could in those situations. It's disappointing he got suspended, but it was also smart of him to save his mind for before he started the game. I'm proud of him. This, in my opinion, shows great mental strength and can only bode well for him. Giolito standing up for himself when an umpire is having a bad game is hardly the same as Sale having a fashion hissy fit
