QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 08:10 AM) Rookie League teams should be starting in a couple of weeks. Just wondering who is shaping up to be on these rosters. Has anyone heard anything on the catcher(Alfaro) we signed out of Colombia last summer? He is on the White Sox Top Prospect list. Then there is Micker Adolfo, too. Alfaro is probably another year away from being stateside, at least.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 10:41 AM) There is a " I have a bad feeling about this team" thread. About 50,000 of them.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 07:57 PM) I agree with you here but you are looking at it with a bit of hindsight. Rodriguez is 36 and hasn't pitched more than 100 innings since 2012. Hammel pitched significantly worse than Samardzija when they were both on the A's. If we had picked up both those guys instead of Jeff before the season people wouldn't have been nearly as happy. Also McCarthy has been a big injury risk for a while now, but we do have a track record of keeping pitchers healthy. Which I would bet it why we traded him very, very quickly.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 07:41 PM) Hammel is pitching wonderfully with the Cubs and is a bargain. McCarthy was pitching excellently before he was injured bar a freaky HR/FB rate and who's to say he gets injured if he comes here. I don't see how you can possibly make that argument. With the rotation we started the year with, we had Danks and Noesi as number 4 and 5, with their SIERAs of 4.46 and 5.06. My rotation has Hammel and Rodriguez as the 4 and 5s, with SIERAs of 2.86 and 3.99. Again, McCarthy mightn't go down if he's here and his SIERA was 2.48 to Samardzija's was 3.91, not to mention the cost given up to get him. And even if you say he still probably gets injured, I have Rodon to come up, and I give Junior Guerra spot starts. As for the future, I have years of control on my pitchers that Samardzija doesn't and you don't want with Danks. McCarthy gets hurt pretty much every year. The one time he didn't was in his contract year. If you throw that year out, since 2007, his 3 highest starts in a season are 25, 22, and 22. That is missing somewhere between a month and two months in a good year.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 08:39 PM) That didn't take long. Welcome to 2015. The incentive isn't to hold out anymore, it is to grab your piece of the slot money before it is gone.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 06:24 PM) I just sold my autographed Viciedo bat that I got in 2009. He's going to break out now and it'll be worth a lot more than what I sold it for. Did you thank Seniora Viciedo?

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 04:01 PM) It seems like most teams have some absolute blackholes of suck in their lineups these days. Welcome to the post steroid era.

Chris Cotillo ‏@ChrisCotillo 42s42 seconds ago #WhiteSox sign 5th-rdr. Jordan Stephens (142) for $300K + $50K in scholarship money. Under slot by $80.4K. http://www.mlbdailydish.com/2015/6/9/87547...ignings-tracker …

Well there we go. Fulmer is the only guy out of the top 15 not signed. Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes 4m4 minutes ago #WhiteSox fourth-rounder Zack Erwin has also signed. Of their 38 picks, Sox have signed 26, including 14 of first 15.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 03:26 PM) He may not be done technically and completely, but the player said on Twitter was now on the White Sox. Yeah, I have no doubt he will sign, just that he hasn't yet.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 03:11 PM) Erwin is signed - have it on the Tracker. It would be strange for the team to list the 5-7 round picks, but not the 4th.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) It's probably been said but, do the Sox view Zangari as a hitter or pitcher? The drafted him as 1B, so hitter I am sure.

If I had to guess (team said 34 picks leaving out JRIII and McMillian I am sure)... Unsigned are Fulmer, Erwin, Hasler, Michael Hickman, Alston Garvin, Cody Staab. Not sure on the other 3.

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 12m12 minutes ago Hickman is from the ACE program. White Sox love Zangari's raw power and don't think Stephens would have been there if not for TJ in '14

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 02:43 PM) Chris Cotillo ‏@ChrisCotillo 5s5 seconds ago #Athletics have signed Dayan Viciedo, according to @MattEddyBA. Speak of the devil lol Ha, evidently Dayan should have had Heyman write this months ago.

No list of names as of yet. Colleen Kane ‏@ChiTribKane 7m7 minutes ago White Sox agreed to terms w/25 of 1st 34 draft picks, including 5-7 round picks RHP Jordan Stephens, INF Corey Zangari and RHP Blake Hickman

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 01:37 PM) Where's OUR Liriano? [At that moment Chris Sale smashes through the wall wearing a Superman S and cape.] Did someone call?

QUOTE (harkness @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 01:30 PM) I totally missed the quote and who it was by... my fault. Thanks for the offer though Bill Lumbergh. Yeah, hi. I am going to need to come in on Sunday as well.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 01:18 PM) Basically, he said Robin offered to fly overnight from LA (or whatever) to St. Pete, manage Sunday, and fly to Pittsburgh with the team. Rick told him that was too much, enjoy his time off, and join the team on Monday in Pittsburgh refreshed. Pretty simple decision. Moving on... Aww. [fire on torch blows out]

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 01:10 PM) I was gone 3 days for my sister's graduation, showing my lack of commitment for my company. Didn't you get the "you're fired" fax?

QUOTE (harkness @ Jun 12, 2015 -> 12:46 PM) Interesting thing about that tweet is Robin's words at the end of that.. "This was my decision." I never thought for one second it wasn't but that statement makes me thing he is wondering if people think management told him to take a break? or... Good news for you, I have a handy jump to conclusions matt you can borrow.
