**2016 TV Watercooler Thread**
QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 01:23 PM) Disappointed Saul wasn't bumped up to 13 episodes, but oh well. It's awesome and should ramp up on awesomeness the next couple seasons. On a separate note, the Jackie Robinson doc on PBS is must see. You'll learn a couple things you didn't know. The Jackie Robinson Documentary was great. I was really impressed with how well it was done, and it didn't just stop with his first season in the bigs. It actually went through his career, and even post career into his family life and activism that he was involved with. Very well done.

White Sox Sign Miguel Gonzalez
QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Apr 15, 2016 -> 07:57 AM) The Sox would trade Saladino straight up for Reddick 100% of the time and it isn't debatable. And they would laugh the whole time after doing it.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 05:25 PM) That's not a real stat. It makes leading the league in it all of the more impressive.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 05:23 PM) White Sox, don't look now, are 8th in DER. Turning 73.6% of balls in play into outs. Keep it up. Much better than last year when they led the league in DERP.

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 04:34 PM) Wow. I knew it was bad last year, but didn't think it was THAT bad. They were 6-13 vs the Twins overall last year.

White Sox Sign Miguel Gonzalez
QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 04:06 PM) It would have to get really bad for that to happen. I just don't see it, and some of that goes into the loyalty argument with JR. Him being pulled from the rotation is much more likely, hopefully sooner than later. Unless someone in the pen falls apart soon, Danks isn't going there. No room for him.

Internal alternatives to Avisail Garcia
QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 03:46 PM) well, when the sox were trying to trade him, even go so far to eat maybe 3/4 of his last yr salary, i would thnk that the writing is on the wall, they really had no faith in him. you tell me. nah for get that, you will still argue that the owners spent enuf money as your common theme Sounds like someone is making assumptions...

Internal alternatives to Avisail Garcia
QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 03:42 PM) and like i didn't know that, the point is, to get an additional player who can platoon, someone who in all likely hood be better then what they had. You just said in your previous post that they needed a DH before Spring Training.

Internal alternatives to Avisail Garcia
QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 03:38 PM) ok, i never said that it wasn't true, and the debate was after that, the sox still had the chance to improve . now look at how long it took for the sox to sign a jacks. furthermore, the sox still had a chance, when they didn't sign any of the big 3-4, to still sign someone who can or may platoon with the dh. signing or not signing is really not the debate. quit changing the goalline. the debate is, the owners didn't want to pony up to get a dh, before st started. if you know craps, the key word is betting on the come. anything else is pure attempt to position the discussion in one favor. They had a DH before Spring Training started. He quit.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 03:08 PM) I like the way we're pitching, but I hope our offense heats up a bit. 3 runs every game won't cut it with guys like Danks on the mound, or Sale/Q/Rodon on a bad day Escobar had one hell of a defensive game. With an average SS in there, we have a couple of more runs on the board, at least. That is even including the amazing catch Kepler made in CF.
