I think it'll be fun to watch games this year... if they lose, cool! If someone like Davidson blows chunks - oh well... if he does great, cool! Rooting for players who are trade candidates will be a thing and following all the affiliates will be intense. Following the international signing period, the draft, other teams top prospects performances, monitoring trade partners standings... it'll be a much different type of fandom but it'll be lit.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 15, 2017 -> 07:22 AM) Just as an FYI, we are currently accepting proposals to create a banner to replace the current one. Funny,I sent Jason a PM yesterday volunteering my services for this

Also, let's remember this is the same Kenny Williams who once thought Nick Swisher was "eye popping".

Rodon's gonna really turn some heads this year and full on break out big time in 2018.

QUOTE (yesterday333 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:49 PM) Haha my fav song. thanks. I joined the board because of the rebuild. I haven't been this excited about baseball in a long time. When I'm watching white sox baseball, that line describes how I feel. It's one of my few hiatus moments

QUOTE (yesterday333 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:38 PM) I agree. I love this rebuilding stuff. Welcome aboard... "all my troubles seemed so far away."

f***ing nails man. Good on ya!

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:13 PM) Trade them Shields and eat the money and I bet he wins 20 games for them. Likely the most "foot in mouth" quote Hahn ever will have:

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:15 PM) I can honestly say I have zero interest in baseball right now. This is the first time ever I really do not care. I know they are rebuilding and it's necessary but I just do not care about anyone on the MLB roster. I should care about Rodon and Anderson but I don't. My envy is yours... hardcore comping at the bit for at least spring training games and the WBC.

QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 01:12 PM) In addition to the 15 uniform numbers the White Sox don't assign, they do not have anyone wearing 1, 23, or 49. http://m.whitesox.mlb.com/roster A statistician's ode to the new beginning.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 12:35 PM) Because in a year they could possibly have a better pitcher (and #1 prospect in baseball) than the one they traded plus a couple of extra pieces. It is a gamble but it could payoff big because they really aren't getting the value from other teams for a Q trade. I personally doubt that the cardinals would trade him.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Feb 14, 2017 -> 10:04 AM) Seeing Sale in Red Sawx makes the soxtalk banner look ready to be updated lol I volunteer my services and if called upon will dutifully serve.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 03:19 PM) Wow, two deals fell through at the ownership approval stage...wonder what deals those were? My guess is Washington For Robertson due to money and Q /Cutch/NY due to who the f*** knows.

Double plus good.

Double plus good.

Very cool seeing him on a top 100 list for the first time!

QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 08:39 AM) Steve Buckley @BuckinBoston This is how much confidence Dave Dombrowski has in Andrew Benintendi: "We never came close to trading him in the wintertime." #RedSox Don't believe it. That quote is from the same man who also said they wouldn't be trading for Sale since they were happy with their starters. Also, now that Benintendi is their top prospect left, what do you expect Dombrowski to say?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 13, 2017 -> 07:13 AM) Jason Mastrodonato ‏@JMastrodonato 2h2 hours ago More Andrew Benintendi said his agent called him right before the Chris Sale trade. "You'll know in the next 2 minutes if you're staying or not." If true, that sure as hell is interesting... to me it suggests that the Red Sox presented two packages, one based on Moncada and another based on Benetindi... the White Sox probably informed Boston that they were going to trade with them and gave them a time for presenting their decision. Don't see any other explanation for this quote.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 11, 2017 -> 11:58 AM) Maybe he's saying the different types of players being offered of the course of various deals. Maybe one deal was 2 Top 50s and MLB player, the other was 3 Top 50s. Maybe he's a jackass?

QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Feb 11, 2017 -> 11:43 AM) ... Simply put, damage control. That was my impression too.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Feb 11, 2017 -> 07:29 AM) Rum Bunter ‏@rumbunter 1h1 hour ago More @rbrockets They offered 3 top 50 overall prospects, another one of their top 10 prospects, a current MLB SP, and another current MLB player I don't believe this for one second Yea, not a chance.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 11, 2017 -> 04:59 AM) 30+ year old catcher Rep is Scott Boras White Sox in rebuild Not going to happen I sure hope not, unless it's for some stupid small amount with an intention of flipping him. .0005% chance.
