I'm sure that is the plan if Avi is out. I don't think they claimed this guy to play every day. He's pushing 30. It's not like he is going to breakout.

Maybe more likely, but very likely? The Nationals have a roster without Harper the Sox are nowhere near and they are .500. The Orioles with Machado are worse than the White Sox.

Kavanaugh is the pick. That was obvious considering he thinks Republican Presidents should be protected from criminal investigations and lawsuits. He did work on the Starr Report. The only question was would his being tight with the Bushes make Trump oook elsewhere. But his thought on Republican Presidents being above the law easily won out.

I'm guessing Avi is going on the DL.

The only thing that would make any sense is maybe Elton John played in that building and it was the record crowd.

They probably still show the hold on Vonleh.

And if you aren’t up for that, you can spend that time b****ing about the b****ing, you can’t lose.

You have to give Gio some credit. He really settled down after the first couple of hitter. It looked like it was going to get out of hand in a hurry, and here he is going to the 6th giving up 1 run.

His walk rate will pick up a bit. Especially if he keeps killing the ball. They won’t want to throw him strikes.

It’s too bad Robin won’t be at the 1993 reunion. They probably figure he would get booed.

Avi’s career arc is staring to look like JD Martinez. Struggle and be a release candidate. Break out with an unsustainable BABIP, but then adds power, which we always knew he had but couldn’t elevate.

Yeah that’s an NBA move.

I have always liked Leury. But he was really brutal for a while

The question is what wins out. The lefty pitcher better vs. righties or the righty hitters better vs. lefties.

They make the pitches Davidson sees a big deal, but guys that strikeout as much as he does usually see at least 3.

Still a weird switch. Not quite as weird as Rueben Amaro Jr. going from a GM to a 1B coach.

Nice to get out of it. Houston pays for not sending Altuve. That is the other issue with Giolito, teams run wild against him

At Soxfest a few years ago, back when Carson Fulmer was highly thought of and Nick Capra was running the minor leagues, Capra said he thought Stephens was as good of a prospect as Fulmer

Hey a strike

Considering they sold a second round pick for $3 million, I don’t see how they would value a pick that probably would be in the Chandler Hutchison range at Melo’s salary. Maybe if they get out of Felico it helps. That is even if a 1st rounder were offered. I saw one discussion where it would be a second rounder and and option to swap second rounders another year.

Angel Hernandez learned the phantom balk call when he was working on Joe West’s crew.

They do the wave at White Sox home games almost every time I go. Maybe that’s why they suck.

Unfortunately the team has several guys that fit that category. At least he can hit.

And they year before that he was non tendered. He was a journeyman his entire career.

It was half assed. They had holes they needed to fill and they filled half of them, and prayed. If Jeff Keppinger isn’t a half assed free agent signing when you are trying to win, It’s only because half assed is giving it far too much credit.
