I wonder how many times Yoan has played in anything near this weather

Hopefully Burdi comes back at some point and has no complications. I would imagine Fulmer eventually becomes a reliever. Jones is still around unless they trade him. They have some interesting pieces that if they bomb out as starters maybe they can become really good at getting 3 outs. Maybe they can sign a couple of guys, but they almost emptied it out last year.

They are going to lose a lot of games because of the bullpen this year. Chances are Farquhar won’t be nails like he was today. They have a lot of bad in there.

Seeing a lot of bad plays here. The youth is showing.

They have 4 or 5 guys at Charlotte who will be in the Sox bullpen at some point.

I am sure everyone is hoping for some free baseball, I just hope when the Sox pull this one out Ricky’s boys will not quit won’t be used.

Soria is awesome.

Why does Farquhar pitch every game?

Sergio fired a 13 on the par 5 15th hole. His title defense is OVA

Yankees tried to get Trayce Thompson to AAA, but Oakland claimed him. I really am surprised the Sox have no interest. I would claim him, DFA Saladino, make Leury the primary INF back up, give Trayce some ABs, if he hits great, if not, no one will claim him, you can drop him to AAA. You might not even have to DFA Saladino. He may have an option left.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 12:36 AM) that what I thought too when they flashed his numbers after he came out. How the hell did he get charged with 3 runs? Yes, it wasn't Engel being charged with an error, which should happen. Pierce singled and scored vs. Bummer and somehow the scorer charged Fulmer. It appears they need a new scorer in Toronto.

QUOTE (soxfan18 @ Apr 5, 2018 -> 07:30 AM) Do people here really have no sense of how expensive retractable roofs are? Maybe they could buy a used one cheap.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 08:45 PM) No way Nicky makes that catch there. Great job by Leury Engel might have had it if Delmonico was in LF. At least he would have been the only hope.

What date is Ron’s annual Abreu is trash thread scheduled?

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 08:19 PM) White Sox org relief pitchers by projected FIP (per ZiPS): Joakim Soria - 3.19 Nate Jones - 3.71 Xavier Cedeno - 3.79 Gregory Infante - 3.81 Juan Minaya - 3.81 Luis Avilan - 3.89 Robbie Ross - 4.15 Thyago Vieira - 4.16 Bruce Rondon - 4.18 Jeanmar Gomez - 4.26 Rob Scahill - 4.41 Jace Fry - 4.41 Danny Farquahar - 4.53 Aaron Bummer - 5.01 Hector Santiago - 5.79 bold = in AAA Some bizarre roster choices. Probably but they will all be up at some time this year. Unless of course they suck so bad or get hurt in the minors.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 08:08 PM) May be time to pull the plug on engel .... I am surprised they didn’t claim Trayce Thompson,. They must really like Cordell

The Sox bullpen is brutal.

Herm out. They are going to honor him tomorrow. 40 years with the White Sox.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 07:29 PM) Looked like ball hit behind glove. I think it’s a single It really should be a double. But ai don’t know how they rule it.

He would have been fine if he just took off when he did. He doesn’t have to wait for him to quit juggling the ball. But it hit the wall.

WTF

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 07:15 PM) This is a really exciting outing by Carson. I don’t remember last game I saw of his where his breaking stuff played for strikes. Like Giolito, even when he was getting by last year it was mostly off of fastball/changeup. I agree. He should have a shutout right now. His pitches are really moving.

I can’t believe Engel didn’t get an error,

Geddy Lee is taking in the game again.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 01:40 PM) The deadtime in the game of baseball creates a whole lot more space to fill. People complain about things like Hawks Catfish and Yaz stories, but there is always going to be something to fill that time. For Jason and Steve it seems to be strange conversations about whatever weird topic that comes up. To be honest give me another Catfish story over another joke about Stone being cheap and never paying for anything. And then Stone says Jason pays for nothing. It goes on and on and on, and it gets old. A little silence is also OK. It's TV not radio. And I don't think it is all Jason's fault. Steve has been a willing participant and tries to come up with lines that just hurt. They do come up with some witty things every game, but it's like a guy who hits 10 3 pointers. No big deal when you take 100 shots. I prefer the guy who goes 3 for 4 or 2 for 3. I think it will get better. Every broadcast team except for the Blackhawks has a ton of critics.
