Back to the topic at hand, I like that they separated the batter logo from the block SOX. I hate the block SOX logo from the 80's. The batter logo actually looks pretty smooth on its own.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 12:06 PM) They are already moaning about these on WSI. Who cares what WSI thinks? They do their thing, we do ours. Plenty of room for both.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:41 AM) Possibly baseball will go bankrupt!? Or he other alternative is the teams have one grossly overpaid contract and 24 A ball player contracts. These figures are outrageous Not even close.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 10:26 AM) Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout 4m4 minutes ago The buzz around the Browns and Carson Wentz at #2 is real. And in a related story, the leading candidate for biggest flop in the 2016 draft is now known.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 10:13 AM) Butler's hasn't. Rose and Noah were on limits. If the Thibs playing time is what killed them, why are they doing it again, and where is the outrage? I read numerous times on this board about Thibs and minutes. Haven't read much of it when he was gone, yet the players still get hurt. Noah missed games before Thibs, with Thibs, and after Thibs. Same with Hinrich and whoever else pre dated the Thibs era. If playing time really was the killer some say it is, Tim Duncan wouldn't still be around. Michael Jordan would have missed a heck of a lot more games, and he practiced just as hard as anyone as well. GarPax definitely had a problem with playing time and practice time. Now all of a sudden, not so much. Ha, there was enough name dropping in here to make Caulfield proud.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 10:55 AM) If we're willing to take on almost the entire salary, he should cost less than we what gave up for Lawrie. If we take on the entire salary, the Dodgers should give us prospects.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 11:08 AM) I would've liked to have seen him come to the Sox, especially on a 1 year deal. Oh well. That $7 million (+5 in incentives) probably takes us out of the running for another position player.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 09:52 AM) I'm not, but if you look at the Bulls roster, the same guys who people said were getting hurt because Thibs played them too much are still getting hurt. They have an injury plagued roster. I understand this is a freak thing, and has nothing to do with basketball. I was responding to the post that was mocking people who don't believe GarPax is doing a great job saying they would blame the injury on them. Weren't you the one who just posted that the players playing time hadn't changed since last year?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 09:14 AM) Toews to skip the All-Star game to rest, will automatically be suspended for one game. (Tuesday @ Colorado). Sounds good to me, rest is best. As dead as this team looked after the winning streak ended, I am OK with that.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 07:08 AM) Just what the White Sox need right now...public funds use/tax protests at Sox Fest and Opening Day. It would be kind of fitting if nobody significant is added to the roster between now and then. Protests over the scoreboard? You can't seriously think that is even a possibility.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 28, 2016 -> 07:20 AM) Read the last paragraph... It is an insider article. I can't.

That honestly seems a bit low on the annual side. I would start at least at $35 million per year. At 14 years that is almost $500 million total, not just over $400.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 05:21 PM) I honestly think he could sign a one year deal with maybe an option or something along those lines. How long does he have to wait to sign til so the draft pick isn't attached? The draft.

David Schuster 10 mins · From the Bulls Bulls forward Nikola Mirotić was diagnosed with an acute appendicitis. An appendectomy was performed earlier today at Rush University Medical Center and went as expected. As a result, Mirotić did not accompany the team on its trip to Los Angeles this afternoon. He is expected to return after the All Star Break.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 04:26 PM) -6 now... I still take Carolina. I think they win by at least a TD. Denver really needs to create some havoc with their defense and to control the clock. The running game has to be a lot better than it was last week.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 04:49 PM) Are the Sox really open to the idea Anderson opening the season at SS? Because that's what the tone of this thread implies. There is no reason for them to say no to it, even if the odds are small for Anderson in 2016.

The strange thing about this division is that there isn't much separation between the teams. I would say the Twins are still a clear step behind, as their kids still have some development to do, but realistically it isn't hard to draw up scenarios that see the Tigers, White Sox, Royals, and Indians finishing in any combination of 1st through 4th place. Health will be a huge thing, as that could break a teams season really quick if a star player goes down.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 04:30 PM) I wouldn't put it at 0. Not sure what I'd put it at but maybe Rabbit can chime in. Unless it was a short and cheap deal, I would put it at 0.

Seth Gruen ‏@SethGruen 46m46 minutes ago Chicago, IL Mirotic chosen to play in the Rising Stars Challenge. He must love that game. No one has to play defense

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 11:17 AM) Quintana's is strange not only because of the ERA, but also his projected FIP (3.29). Not sure why the projection has such a big gap between the two numbers, especially considering Quintana's career ERA (3.46) is almost identical to his career FIP (3.45). The White Sox defense sucked last year. The OF hasn't changed as of today.
