QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 7, 2014 -> 05:57 PM) Wish we could package Beckham for some pitching Beckham + De Aza somewhere for a solid reliever would be nice.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 7, 2014 -> 02:27 PM) The latter is correct for now, though the former is sort of ignoring the bigger picture. He was o-for-everything until very recently, made some small changes, and looks much better now. Long term it is likely Semien's job. He started 0/15. Which means he is 4 for his last 13, which is just under .333. Add in a handful of walks, and his really solid defense so far and I'd gladly wave goodbye to Beckham.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 7, 2014 -> 01:17 AM) Nice to see Q finally having his head out of his ass and is playing Morin as well. Morin was great, Benny Smith has been turning a corner this spring, but unfortunately Teuvo rots on the healthy scratch list.... is there no league this kid can be playing in right now?

QUOTE (Tex @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 07:49 PM) ^^ Until a player is in Paulie's position, I want a guy that thinks he should be at the next level AND is willing to work to get there. And then you can point to the cockiest player in the MLB, Brett Lawrie, who outside of a very good rookie season (sound familiar?), hasn't put up a good season. I don't want a soft headcase, but I also don't one a cocky kid who things the game owes him something. Fortunately there is a TON of middle ground where nearly the entire cast of MLB players reside.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 11:39 PM) Keep an eye on Engel. He has a chance. could have been a big 10 football player but concentrated on baseball. can run, catch and throw. didn't hit last year, but he's been solid as a pro. IIRC, he was a very promising college player that was supposed to be taken in the top 10 rounds until a weak junior year that caused him to slip quite a bit. The idea that he would go back to school to improve his stock made him fall even further. Sox grabbed him and he seems to have brought his game back up to that level. I was really excited when we drafted him. He looked good in the few games I saw of him in the CWS.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 10:34 PM) If this guy can hit at all, he'll be so awesome. I see videos posted of his defense every day on twitter. Apparently he's just sick with the glove. I guess a Jose Igelsias, Didi Gregorious type if he can get even a marginal bat to get him to the majors.

QUOTE (Ozzie Ball @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 10:21 PM) Inside the park HR for Trey. My god, the slice and drive on that ball, that was impressive. I wonder if hitting lefty is considered his "strong side", because he crushed that.

Shameless.............. WHAAAAAAAT! I think it's awesome that non of the cast members even knew about that last scene. I'll be vague until others see it, because it's a pretty big spoiler.

That was a nice win today. Love beating the Blues.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 04:39 PM) Too bad Jeter is going to steal another All Star MVP from him. /cantletitgo You're so f***ing right though. There is no way Jeter is not the AS game MVP, even if he is injured and doesn't play.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 06:18 PM) Why is it such a big deal that kids exude confidence? I'd rather have Hawkins thinking he should be at AA than to be pouting about last year. Because there aren't just 2 extremes on the confidence scale.

Davidson - 2/4, 2 2B, 2 RBI, 0 K Phegley - 2/3, 2B, BB Hawkins - 1/4, 2B, RBI, 2 K Anderson - 0/4, RBI Engel - 3/5, 2B, HR, 3 RBI Rondon - 2/5, 2B Trey Zewski - 1/4, HR, RBI Jake Sanchez - 1 IP, 1 H, 3 K.

It took Anderson 11 seconds to get from home plate to 3rd, and that's with him pulling up at 3rd. So we can safely assume he can make that trip in 10 seconds if there would have been a play at 3rd. That's pretty damn fast.

QUOTE (BPK @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 07:32 PM) Our kid is back! 1-3, HR ("And he might have been fooled."), 2K. I'm not getting excited yet because we saw the exact same story last year. Look at his start to the year last season, he had like 10 HR after 25 games.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 10:39 PM) Anna Kendrick hosting SNL tonight. God I f***ing love her.

This Will Little home plate ump seems like a real douche who has too much "pride" I guess to ask for help on a check swing.

Right...there.

This may be the first time Abreu has faced some real heat. Let's see if he gets beat on a FB.

SCOTT is bringing that ERA......DOWN. *Receives second tomato to the face*

"I don't care who it is, I still hate to see that play." Hawk acknowledging his love for Gordon, prefacing that he can even hate things that Gordon does.

I wonder why the camera behind homeplate has a Sepia filter on it. Instagram is taking over the world, yo.

Flowers almost threw that ball to Eaton......sigh.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 05:26 PM) Meant called it about the K, didn't see your reply until now Oh. Someone else was playing along too a page earlier.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 05:23 PM) called it Yeeeeeeeeah......we were patronizing you there.....soo.....

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 05:22 PM) Are you the poster formally known as Shoota? I don't know what that means or how to be insulted.
