QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 10:05 AM) Rongey.....I don't even know where to get started with that guy. Why does he have to argue with everyone? Just say, "hey Bob, appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for the call." Click. That is the schtick for the entire Score line up. Find someone stupid, show them up, rinse, repeat.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 08:21 AM) 2015? Were Sox going to take Benitendi if Bosox passed on him? 2014? We got our guy in Rodon. 2013? I can't remember who we wanted. You are reading his post backwards. He is saying if WE were one slot lower the team that would have been in front of us would have picked Rodon and Fulmer respectively.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 12:29 AM) Hawk convinced me a year ago Micah was gonna be a superstar. Now he's just a blah prospect. What happened? I was hoping he was the next Ray Durham. Mistake #1, you believed Hawk.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 09:30 AM) Average age of Hawk, Stone, Farmio, DJ and Bill Melton (CSN shows) is nearly 66 Hard to see how this is a winning strategy to cultivate younger fans. Why include Melton on that list, but not Chuck Garfein or Chris Rongey?

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 07:24 PM) Love listening to them. Glad they're back. Yes. They have figured out their chemistry. The first while they were really awkward, and Farmer had no idea how to take DJ. Now they get each other. Granted I wouldn't be upset if Farmer were replaced, but it is much better than it was.

QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Oct 1, 2015 -> 09:13 AM) man I really am an anachronism....I would rather watch the players play and listen to Nancy Faust play her organ. Totally agree. There could be zero canned music, and no things like the Pride Girls, Dot races, find the ball under the hat, and I would be thrilled.

It is amazing how quickly the board we had went from state of the art, to stuff I couldn't play nintendo on.

That was a beauty of a play by Sanchez. He has every bit the arm that Beckham has at 2nd, but much more range.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 08:02 PM) you forgot tang and velcro I like tang.

Chicago White Sox ‏@whitesox 11m11 minutes ago "He's definitely put himself on the map." - Robin on Trayce

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 6m6 minutes ago Knee surgery for Micah Johnson. Doesn't sound major but #WhiteSox aren't certain when he might resume baseball activity. Colleen Kane ‏@ChiTribKane 4m4 minutes ago White Sox second baseman Micah Johnson to have arthroscopic surgery to clean up left knee tomorrow, Robin Ventura says.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 04:06 PM) I don't think there's a catcher available for us to spend lots of money on. It's such a weak position. I do think we trade for a 3B, though. edit- I know there's Wieters, but he's overrated and injury-prone I can squint and see a scenario where Wieters takes a one year deal to try to go back out in 2016 looking for a home run on the free agent market. That is a pretty typical Boras tactic.

Well this explains why he hasn't been playing. Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 1m1 minute ago Micah Johnson told me he's having arthroscopic surgery on his left knee Thursday.

Chris De Luca ‏@ChrisDeLuca 1m1 minute ago Chicago, IL #Bulls say Derrick Rose will be able to resume basketball activities in two weeks.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 03:44 PM) Opening night this season or next? He does need to get paid. He has a son who may be going to college. I am pretty sure DRose may be the dumbest person to ever play with the Bulls. I wish BJ, his agent would get in his face and tell him to shut up, but aparently the is a Reggie Rose production. Derrick Rose reminds me so much of Allen Iverson it isn't even funny. The big difference is that AI had more guts. Other than that, same player, same off of the court IQ.

QUOTE (shipps @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 03:27 PM) Totally agree. I think Hahn is going to want to scale back the big moving and shaking that he did last off season and be a little on the conservative side this off season. The big move this year will involved a 3B or C this year.

My guess is that the White Sox bring all four back next year (Eaton, Cabrera, Garcia, Thompson) and rotate them regularly based on who is hot and match ups, much like they have for the last couple of months. Thompson will play a lot early, but won't start. Eventually he will take a job from someone. It might even be that LaRoche is pushed out the door, and the DH becomes a part of that rotation so that Thompson play every day. What I don't see is the Sox dumping one of their current OFs (Cabrera, Eaton, Garcia).

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 02:05 PM) Yeah Farmer and DJ were why we didn't make the playoffs. This board is hilarious sometimes. This team sucks... but man do they sound awesome doing it!

Matt Spiegel ‏@MattSpiegel670 3h3 hours ago Steve Stone just told us Trayce Thompson should play centerfield at the start of next season.

On the bright side, if Rose gets one more punch on his frequent buyer card, he gets his next surgery free. NBCSN Verified account ‏@NBCSN 16m16 minutes ago Derrick Rose’s surgery successful, he may return for opening night: http://tw.nbcsports.com/Ahc

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Sep 30, 2015 -> 12:29 PM) Also, it should be noted that Thompson's BABIP in September is just .250, which is actually on the unlucky side considering he's still driving the ball, yet his OPS is still >.700 and he has 0.3 WAR. He does that over a full season and he's a 2 WAR player. His numbers have been starting to balance out. It will be interesting to see where the "truth" is for Thompson as a hitter.

According to SportsCenter, Derrick Rose has missed 103 games in the last two years. Tim Duncan has missed 97 in 18 years.
