Since we have a thread on premium seating, I just want to go on record as stating that the White Sox premium seating sales team sucks. I emailed them about suite costs and options on March 25th through their webform, complete with details of what I was looking for and to find out. I got a generic reply 5 days from someone carrying the title of "Manager of Premium Seating" 5 days later, which ignored all of the information in that webform, and asking what I was looking for. I answered it the next morning. Over time I received 2 different emails offering 40% of certain suites. After not hearing anything for 5 days, I emailed this same person back again, mentioned the 40% off. It is now six days after the last email, 11 days total since the last correspondence from the White Sox, and 16 days after I first requested information, and I still don't have any of the information I requested.

Big time grades on speed, arm, and defense.

This is interesting.

That was kind of my point with Banks. If VV goes 2 or 3 innings, it would be nice to back him up with a guy who can go 4 to 5 innings of work to fill in the gap and not fry the pen in game 1 of a series.

Typically, I would believe more in this, but after hearing the story about Tony overruling his coaches on a rule interpt, I don't think this is the case as much, especially if Tony has a different thought.

Seems like an easy over.

@bmags alert!

the only big question I had so far was why he used his long guy for two innings with Vince Velasquez about to go on the home opening day.

Eloy needs an electric shock collar that Robert can use whenever Eloy wanders to far out of LF..

Also saw this.

And I like that is from guys who are capable of taking big leaps. Obviously no one expects no strike outs from these guys, but their ceilings indicate that a big leap is still possible in all three cases

Well, its been decades since we had one, so why start now?

Supposedly the southern teams don't want all of the April early dates either, which is why this has never happened.

This is going to be worth tracking.

Severino is probably here until the Sox need their next starter.

No idea if this is the Gio move or part of others, such as Pollock
