As much as I hate to keep doing this.... uh.... yea. ( edit: Shields is starting... duh. Predicting a loss and a sweep by Cleveland. Please, baseball Gods. )

Uh.... I really think the Gavin Floyd comps should be officially dead. ( also, please don't let me keep having to start game threads )

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 12:19 PM) You're referring to Benetti, right

QUOTE (Tony @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 12:11 PM) It's so interesting to watch someone on the ML level that you know isn't complete, and is working on things as you watch. +1

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 11:30 AM) Giolito looking sharp so far Just was gonna chime in with the same sentiment... he looks like a big leaguer. I think the Gavin Floyd comps may be a bit light.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 10:31 AM) I'll take 28 losses that end 4-3. +1 The good old 28 game losing streak to end a season.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Sep 3, 2017 -> 10:27 AM) I might get scrutinized for this, but I would think better focus and better diet might do him a world of good. Non stop instagram videos of himself don't put off a professional appearance. He's nothing compared to Robert

Here's to hopes of a 1 - 0 loss.

Triple s*** night!!!

Jason B. during the top of the 4th inning talking to Stone, Just awful.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 2, 2017 -> 04:58 PM) Already 7 K's in 3 innings for Hansen.

WhoHahhhhhh.... nice. Hansen day. Wish I could be there to watch his face light up 100+ times.

Archer out with an unknown injury after 8 pitches and 2 home runs.

Hansen goes deep. 1 - 0 Sox in the bottom of the first. Edit: Sanchez back to back - 2 to 0 Sox :angry:

Let's go Nola!! ( gave up 3 runs in the 1st.... damn you Nola - damn you!!! )

QUOTE (miracleon35th @ Sep 2, 2017 -> 04:04 PM) Then there is Jason Bennetti.. .IMO his banter during games is nerdy, trite and often annoying. He does not have the voice, the timing or the knack for infusing excitement into the broadcast.... ... I find Bennetti to be kind of creepy and, once again, annoying. He was very unengaging when I saw him in person before a Dodgers / Sox game a couple weeks back. Saying "hi" to him was met with silence and this scowling grimace which conveyed, "leave me alone." That said, it could have been take as him trying to dig around the players to "do his homework before a broadcast". Jury is still out on him as far as my opinion is concerned.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Sep 2, 2017 -> 02:27 PM) Wade Boggs and a plate of fried chicken.

Since December of 2016 - we have do the following: Players Lost ( 11 ): Chris Sale Adam Eaton Jose Quintana Todd Frazier David Robertson Tommy Kahnle Anthony Swarzak Dan Jennings Melky Cabrera Tyler Clippard Miguel Gonzalez Players Added ( 20 ): Yoan Moncada Michael Kopech Victor Diaz Luis Alexander Basabe Lucas Giolito Reynaldo Lopez Dane Dunning Eloy Jimenez Dylan Cease Matt Rose Bryant Flete Blake Rutherford Ian Clarkin Tito Polo Tyler Clippard Ryan Cordell Casey Gillaspie A.J. Puckett Andre Davis Ti'Quan Forbes International Free Agent ( 1 ): Luis Robert Waiver Claims ( 5 ): Dylan Covey Willy Garcia Jason Coats Alan Hanson D.J. Peterson This of course does not account for the 2017 draft class.... woah, dudes.

Ken Griffey Jr!

Really well done video - I'm more hyped about Eloy than I was for Yoan. At the end of the day, when they both reach their peaks - I hope they're both STUDS. https://www.facebook.com/WhiteSox/videos/10156729566588298/ ( and they're both ridiculously good looking too - so there's that )

6 runs in the 9th

QUOTE (ron883 @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 10:03 AM) The dude is a lost cause. They are just bringing him up to bomb and get the #1 pick.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 02:15 AM) To be fair, the Sox took advantage of a couple prospects that had helium (Aiken and Kolek) while Rodon's stock was fading and they seemed to understand that Rodon was simply fatigued. I remember it well and was alluding to that situation. In real time, it was electric. Wanna experience a top 2 pick now - preferably el numero uno.

QUOTE (soxforlife05 @ Sep 1, 2017 -> 12:29 AM) Wow I guess kopech may actually get a crack at starting out of spring training after all MiGo was a FA after this year - so does his departure really make a difference?
