  1. QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 28, 2017 -> 07:28 AM) My main issue is, that most likely, Trubisky would have been there at #3. The 49ers didn't want to move too far down in the draft, so they wouldn't have traded down with just anyone; so why waste three picks on someone that you could have selected without having to do anything? Plus, Trubisky is not an immediate starter, so why be concerned if you are forced to shore up your porous secondary instead of him? Kizer is still out there and, honestly, he's not much different from Trubisky. The story is that the 49ers had another trade offer on the table.
  2. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 10:17 PM) From the day he was drafted all we heard was that he was injury prone. Yet the White Sox got two relief seasons, followed by 5 seasons of 174+ innings. He is probably more effective as a strikeout pitcher than pitch to contact but what is better for his arm? All this as Mr. Durable Felix Hernandez is falling apart after 10+ full seasons. Big picture, this is what I saw. The Sox gave him starts off, weeks off, and short DL stints to really nurse him along. All as tons of guys guys went under the knife. Heck David Price put up about a decade of not missing starts, and any day now is going to have to end his season for TJ surgery.
  3. QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 06:49 PM) Sale's throwing harder this year than last. Never did understand the approach last year The Sox really worked hard to keep him healthy and keep him off of the surgeon's table. I really wonder if Boston will be able to do the same.
  4. QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 03:12 PM) From Heyman's AL Notes for the White Sox: https://www.fanragsports.com/mlb/inside-bas...inues-surprise/ With a $25 million offer, how high should the White Sox be willing to go?
  5. QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 04:08 PM) Initially I was pro-tank for the draft pick, but we're much better suited to guys playing well and building value than getting a draft pick a few slots higher. I'd rather get the #6 pick and have Kahnle/Swarzak/Holland/Gonzalez turn into viable trade pieces than get the #2 pick and have all of them suck. We come out WAY ahead in this scenario.
  6. QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 01:38 PM) Trade deadline preview with mucho a White Sox amore: https://www.fanragsports.com/mlb/inside-bas...tand-right-now/ Interesting to note on Roberston
  7. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 02:25 PM) The dragged man has already settled. So no way $100 million, but I bet it was for 7 figures. That's what I was thinking as well.
  8. QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 27, 2017 -> 10:24 AM) Moncada could actually come up on May 15th and still be under control for 7 seasons. He'd probably qualify for Super 2 Status though. He absolutely would be a Super 2. If you figure that typically the deadline is two months-ish into the season. It might be August before he passes the Super 2 deadline.
  9. Your best bet would be to email the team and see if someone there who can help you out.
  10. QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 07:24 PM) This year? How about Tilson? Leury should play over May, but saying he deserves a full season opportunity in CF because of a hot couple of weeks is insane to put it mildly. This guy was considered a AAAA player by pretty much everyone just a few weeks ago. He's nothing more than a play it as it goes option. Tilson is thought of the same way by most scouts.
  11. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:27 PM) Coming into today the Sox were first in DER at like 74% of in play balls turned into outs. Defensively they'd been really solid. I don't think they will keep it up though. Recently we have been too good at leading the league in DERP.
  12. QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:37 PM) CF is Leury's the rest of the year, unless he completely goes into the tank. He's earned it. It has been three weeks. No one has earned anything for the rest of the season yet.
  13. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 04:22 PM) Ya until they starting selling off some pieces I think the bullpen is pretty darn legit. The back of the pen is really good. Robertson-Jennings-Jones is pretty legit. If you can put Putnam and Petricka healthy and in the middle innings, you go from a nice backend, to a pretty deep group. If not, then you move guys from the next tier into important roles. Then you have the questions. Is Kahnle legit now after being awful last year? Will the old Swarzak show back up, or is this really him? Can Ynoa give the team solid innings?
  14. And Robertson just shuts it down. Easy.
  15. QUOTE (shipps @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 03:42 PM) So they just arent going to take into any consideration of what I want to see happen... is what you are telling me? Just call Jerry directly. He will take care of you.
  16. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 03:28 PM) Is he? I didn't think First Take was still getting good ratings Keeping SAS is exactly why espn is where they are. They appreciate the nonsense and filter out the reality I went from watching ESPN in the morning to The Weather Channel and CBNC. It was almost insulting to watch EPSN for any period of time anymore.
  17. Avi's homer was something like 100 feet further than Leury's.
  18. QUOTE (shipps @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 03:18 PM) Bring on Delmonico and move Abreu to DH. I love and respect Abreu as much as the next guy but I want to see more of the young guys with potential. I have to imagine with the 40 man roster full, they would call up someone already on the 40. My guess is Willys Garcia.
  19. QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 03:11 PM) So Q is in line for a win...... JINX!
  20. But Steven A Smith is still safe... LMAO.
