QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 28, 2017 -> 06:36 PM) There won't be a huge crowd tomorrow. A lot of tickets available. Most of the top 15 rows in the upper deck are unsold, there are about 4 or 5 sections down each line virtually unsold. Tuesday is even more available. Their average may go down. If the weather holds up and Sale v. Quintana holds up, Mon/Tues walk up will be pretty strong.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 27, 2017 -> 04:23 PM) First major league victory for Danish. Engel debuted as a PR and scored...will probably start Game 2. LUIS Robert intro/press conference. Crowd was really into this game, especially when Swarzak got Upton swinging with bases loaded in the 7th...and then Cabrera striking out late, too. Engel's family is one section right of me and it was really cool to see their reactions as he got into the game and scored. Lots of mom tears.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 20, 2017 -> 03:00 PM) Moncada's salary is minimal. That's what I'm saying... Moncada cost The White Sox the services of Chris Sale and very little financially. That's a value-add of $31.5mm at a cost much lower than that. Having that piece in place gave the team the finances to go after Robert.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ May 20, 2017 -> 02:54 PM) Sale deal has nothing to do with this deal. Sox weren't sent money. The tax and bonus owed to Moncada was on Red Sox. White Sox wouldn't have to pay remainder of bonus anyway. That's not really agreed to. That's Red Sox obligation. But they got Moncada into their system without paying substantial any salary. That's a pretty big discount.

Heyman doubling down. Jon Heyman‏Verified account @JonHeyman Luis Robert has chisox deal

QUOTE (ChrisLikesBaseball @ May 20, 2017 -> 02:08 PM) This is probably discussed in another thread, but which affiliate do we expect him to start with if he lands in our system? QUOTE (StrykerSox @ May 20, 2017 -> 02:09 PM) Getting way ahead of things here, but if we sign him, where does he get assigned? We're really a sad bunch of fools, aren't we!?

I keep reminding myself that 19 year olds are immature. Therefore the instagram photo change could absolutely be a negotiating ploy.

It's all over. Burn it down.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 11:05 PM) We all thought the rotation was laughable and they have been great so far minus one start from Q. I know the bad is coming soon but I am enjoying it

QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 10:40 AM) Surely the 100th anniversary of a World Series deserves more than just a one-off throwback...I'm also bummed that they've stuck with the '83s that everyone loves for some inexplicable reason. Agreed, it's definitely a missed opportunity.

QUOTE (coco1997 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 02:40 PM) Yes, the Sox are giving away 1917 replica jerseys on July 29th, so it's a safe bet they'll be wearing throwbacks for that game. That's the rumor I've heard. Plus, that uniform is available to use in MLB The Show 17 on PS4 which is often an indication that it'll make an appearance.

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Apr 11, 2017 -> 08:07 PM) Speaking of uniforms, am I the only one who is disappointed that they didn't go with the 1917s for the alternate? It seems like the perfect year for it. (100 year anniversary) I've heard rumors that they'll be doing a turn back the clock night mid summer with the 1917s

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Apr 5, 2017 -> 06:23 PM) Sale taking on the Pirates right now. He's still pretty good at baseball.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 5, 2017 -> 08:38 AM) Just heard on the score the game is being made up as a doubleheader in I think it was May. Straight doubleheader on May 26. Anyone with tickets to today's game can exchange their tickets for any tickets of equal or lesser value, they are not automatically valid for the doubleheader on May 26.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Apr 4, 2017 -> 12:06 PM) How can we stream games from CSN? Depends on your platform, but the NBC sports app is the key in.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2017 -> 08:12 AM) I'm not even that upset about not being able to take today off- I'm upset that there was a big playable window from the start time-4:45 in which they could've gotten an official game in. It wasn't even raining. The objective is never to get an official game in, the objective when starting a game is to to play 9 innings.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 07:33 PM) There's zero tickets listed on stubhub for tomorrow's game and now my tickets for it will not validate when I try to upload them, assuming that's the issue. Thanks white sox. Now I can't even get any more for them. Craigslist

This doesn't turn out to be a terrible deal with the bonus game they're throwing in. I might make it to some of the game tomorrow, but another free game is a nice toss in

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 05:42 PM) Not even sure why the MLB does this crap. There's not enough decent climate/domed stadium teams to spread things out the first few weeks in April?...no...let's have San Diego and LA Dodger play...SF and AZ...LA Angels/A's...then have Chicago/Detroit...geezus. Teams want Opening Day games to capitalize on people being excited that baseball is back. 2 weeks into the season, that excitement is dead because the team is bad and those tickets never get sold.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 04:22 PM) I hate rain delays. I was at USCF a few years ago vs. the Yankees they didn't start the game because rain was supposed to be in the area. For the next 2.5 we waited for it to rain. Finally it did and then they cancelled it. Sold a lot of beer. Bu for 2.5 hours there was a rain delay featuring no rain. I was also at that game. Handled very poorly.

Centerfield video board now says they're holding off on warming up starting pitchers and they'll update as they get information.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Apr 3, 2017 -> 03:59 PM) I wonder why he isn't there. He calls the Final Four every year.
