QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 08:11 AM) Phegley was never starting for the Sox He wouldn't have this year either.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 08:36 AM) He has at least proven that he can hit at the MLB level. I'd take him hitting .235 with 25 homers (or whatever his 2014 numbers were) at DH over LaRoche's .205 with 12 homers any day. I am not advocating that he start in a non-DH position nor do I think he's a good player. I just think he would produce better than LaRoche in 2016 at DH. Wait, Dayan Viciedo has prove he can hit at the major league level, but Adam LaRoche hasn't? You can't be serious.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 22, 2015 -> 07:43 AM) I think he proved he really isnt a major league player, which is why he spent the last year both 1: unemployed, and 2: in AAA His success in AAA this year isnt an indicator of major league success. It is a red herring In the same day I have seen people pining for Tim Tebow and Dayan Viciedo. Now I know what depression really looks like.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 06:28 PM) Was Trayce's triple a gapper or deep fly? It would have been five rows deep at USCF.

Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter 4m4 minutes ago Bears QB Jay Cutler will miss at least 2 weeks with hamstring injury, per sources. Jimmy Clausen now starts. The Bears declined comment.

Sounds like Walker is dropping out soon?

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 03:10 PM) Why wouldn't he say this? It's not like he's just going to admit that he's been trash for a good 3/4 of the season. This is bologna IMO. I need to see an improvement over several starts to believe this. Because today is much more in line with the rest of his career than the rest of his post ASG starts were. While people can debate the who #1/#2 starter thing before that point, the guy has always been a pretty good pitcher. This isn't like John Danks pitching a shutout.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 16m16 minutes ago Jeff Samardzija watched footage, thinks has been tipping pitches, particularly fastball. Credits video guy Bryan Johnson for adjustment.

After Carson's idiotic statement, it is interesting to look backwards at this, which basically got no coverage. http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2012/06/21/b...967-poll-finds/

Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka 36s37 seconds ago #WhiteSox have 4 CG shutouts this season... and Sale doesn't have one of them. 2 by Samardzija 1 by Danks 1 by Quintana #Baseball

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 02:22 PM) When was our last less than 90 pitch CGSO? South Side Sox ‏@SouthSideSox 2m2 minutes ago Samardzija's #Maddux was the second-most efficient for a White Sox pitcher in the pitch count era. Jerry Reuss needed 87 pitches 5/1/89.

SoxNet ‏@SoxNet 26s27 seconds ago That was an 88 pitch shutout by Jeff Samardjiza in something just under 2 hours and 15 minutes. Mark Buehrle is slow clapping somewhere.

87 pitch shutout for Jeff Samardjiza.

South Side Sox ‏@SouthSideSox 3m3 minutes ago Trayce Thompson is the first White Sox to ground into three double plays since A.J. Pierzynski on Aug. 9, 2008.

QUOTE (bjm676 @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 02:15 PM) This isn't exactly a quality lineup the Tigers are putting out. The White Sox aren't exactly running murder's row out there either, and they had at least seen 104 pitches through 8.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 02:09 PM) Amazing from the Tigers and the Sox. The Shark with 80 pitches, no walks and only one hit allowed. I want to hear his explanation for the turnaround-assuming he doesn't blow it in the 9th. Do you think Robin puts Robertson out there in the 9th? He shouldn't but you never know the strategy anymore With the way the Sox do things, Samardjiza starts the inning, with Robertson backing him up in the pen.

Talk about a team that has rolled over and played dead... The Tigers have seen 80 pitches through 8 innings of play.

MLB Pipeline ‏@MLBPipeline 2h2 hours ago Keon Barnum removed from @MLBazFallLeague Glendale roster. No. 28 on @whitesox Top 30 list: http://atmlb.com/1By56ax

I have yet to see a single candidate on either side that I WANT to vote for.

ESPN Stats & Info @ESPNStatsInfo Highest % chance to have the No. 1 pick in the 2016 draft according to FPI: Bears (22%) Raiders (15%)…

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 5m5 minutes ago Detroit, MI Jose Abreu named Co-American League Player of the Week with Prince Fielder. Abreu hit .458 with nine RBIs.

Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 3m3 minutes ago Frankie Montas has worked with reduced FB velocity to better command it in the majors. #WhiteSox are impressed. http://bit.ly/1OqgoV8

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 01:08 PM) How many runs has Samardzija allowed? Six...teen? The Tigers have one base runner through 5 2/3.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 21, 2015 -> 12:50 PM) Watch Samardzija win his last three starts and cost the Sox a top 10 pick. There would be some irony in that. Samardjiza pitching well accomplishes one big thing, it makes it a better option for the White Sox to offer him a QO, and it lessens the odds that he will take it and be signed somewhere else as a FA. The top 10 pick thing only matters if we want to sign a top flight free agent, and I don't even see that as realistic anyway.
