  1. QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 07:23 PM) Actually with Tilson out and Austin Jackson apparently not coming back soon I would just start Avi in CF every game from here on out. Keep Eaton in RF where he excels and see how Avi does in center. I've heard some people claim that center field is actually easier to play for a lot of outfielders that struggle in the corners as long as they have the speed to cover the ground from gap to gap. Avi certainly struggles in RF and one thing he does have is speed. What could it hurt? At this point what's the difference if he's a butcher in RF or in CF? It sure would be fun to watch him play center - I could play clown themed circus music as a soundtrack to all his plays.
  2. QUOTE (dmbjeff @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 09:30 PM) This is exactly the type of moves they have been making and then failing. Boosting people like Saladino into a full time role is entirely stupid. He is a great defensive backup. They need to go get a C, 1B/3B/DH and an OF. 3 good guys, not 3 scrubs, or bounce back candidates, 37+ year old veterans, backups who look like they could be good. If they can't do that, they need to tear it down and start over. They already have too many question marks as it is with everyone else in that lineup. No one has been truly consistent outside of Eaton the past few years. I have this creeping suspicion that things are not quite what they seem...
  3. I'll take Gordon Beckham for $1,000 Alex
  4. QUOTE (ptatc @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 08:25 PM) Sorry, been out of town visiting colleges with my daughter. Its never good having to do surgery for soft tissue injuries. One doctor I worked with described it as tying two pieces of spaghetti together. It doesn't bode well for a player who relies on speed for his game. He'll be ready for spring training but it's anyone's guess as to how well he'll be able to run and stay healthy again. Thanks mate and hope your travels went well.
  5. It's pretty silly that Jose Abreu @ 68mm, John Danks @ 65mm, and Adam Dunn @ 56mm are the largest White Sox contracts ever. That should tell you everything you need to know about us signing "big" free agents in the future.
  6. QUOTE (SCCWS @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 05:19 PM) No, that will convince the front office that Q should not be traded. Sale will not be traded based on the comments from last week. Comments from last week?

    Tony Robbins I'm not your guru was interesting as well
  8. Predicted date Puig is on the White Sox: November 18th, 2016.

    QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 10:27 AM) Ive started crying at weird father/son movies like the rookie too Yea - I totally get that. Around birth to 18 months old the water works flew off randomly for a lot of stuff. Then toddler tantrums and divorce court sucked me dry of that stuff. Yay.
  11. QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 10:52 AM) Wtf is wrong with Hawk? He's like not paying attention or something. He sounds almost as sick as me. Must be the clap.

    QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 07:25 PM) Have you seen the movie chef? As a father it brings me to tears but it's also real good. Watched it some time ago - thought it was fun. Didn't get my water works going, thou. p****.

    Started watching Limitless the series today on Netflix. It's good. Extends the story from the movie and even includes the past main actor in a supporting role. Well done.

    Looking for good shows to watch on TV. Also interested in seekers on Showtime / HBO... As well as Netflix series / movies. Lately I saw a Jim Carey movie based on a true story that was well done on Netflix. Dark comedy vein. Called, "I love you Philip Morris." Best thing on TV right now? Ray Donavan. That shows getting more and more bad ass this year. Your turn.
  15. QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 07:04 PM) This is the cursed Chicago team. not the other one. Let's wait and see what happens in game 6 of the NLCS
  16. You've got one shot at calling one deal in the offseason. Go!! Quintana to the Yankees for Fraizer, Torres, Sanchez, Severino, and Rutherford. Why? Because it'd be comically awesome.
  17. QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 04:21 PM) Lead off double followed by Anderson not advancing runner and then Eaton doubled off on line drive to Kinsler It wasn't good base running but it wasn't aweful. The line drive Kinsler caught wasn't just some routine easy to read goof.
  18. Adam obviously didn't see that ball whatsoever. Could have easily been caught if he had.
  19. Really looking forward to hearing from ptatc on this whole ordeal. Short term recovery, likely long term prognosis, any potential career altering effects, etc.
  20. QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) I knew it was bad when I saw it happen. Tough break for the kid. I hope he doesn't lose some of his speed as it seems to be his best tool. I saw the 15 day ankle s*** this morning and was shocked. This makes way more sense. Ptatc- paging Dr. ptatc
  21. Yea, nice hat!
  22. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 09:17 AM) You guys don't understand, prospects and draft picks are actually bad and there's no reason to have them around. Uh. Yea.
  23. QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 09:23 AM) His defense looked pretty suspect.. Maybe nerves or not knowing the park.. I saw him get two opportunities - one really bad read on his first attempt and then the injury attempt. Hard to say much.
  24. QUOTE (Sleepy Harold @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 08:32 AM) Tilson to 15-Day DL "Tilson strained his left hamstring last night during the 5th inning of his major-league debut while running down a fly ball in center field." ~ Sox Twitter If that's all it turned out to be he's blessed
