2011 Spring Training thread
The intrasquad game was canceled. Wet grounds. The weather looks fine out there the next week, so the pitchers will get their work in this week.

The countdown thread
QUOTE (SoxPride56 @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 01:13 AM) Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but the game on Monday is on MLB Network! But will it be blacked out in the Chicago area? That is the question.

Jake Peavy Thread
QUOTE (ptatc @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 11:12 AM) Remember the injury is healed. There is no longer a problem with the attachment of the lat. It was re-attached and probably still has an anchor there. The only thing he needs to do is build strength. He is starting at a weaker point in the muscles than the other pitchers. So there is no surprise that he is going to pitch soon. In fact to continue to build strength in the muscle they may have him pitch more. The glitch or expected problem that will happen is in strength and soreness from building the muscle not from the muscle re-attachment. I'm not really thinking about the lat injury. I'm just wondering what's next with Peavy. Will it be the shoulder? Will it be the elbow? I just think it's always going to be something with this guy. So if he's pain free and at the 100-pitch threshold by April 1, turn him loose and see what happens.

Jake Peavy Thread
QUOTE (jphat007 @ Feb 19, 2011 -> 04:37 PM) Merk says that Peavy is going to pitch in a game on March 4. I'm surprised they are giving him a game so early. I think that's pretty good news, though. I agree. It's very surprising that he has a game schedule already. I just hope they are cautious with him, but if he's ready for the April 9th start, that would be great. That's when the Sox will need a 5th starter for the first time. I hope they give him that extra week, and if he gets hurt, he gets hurt. It'll either happen in a Sox uniform or a Charlotte uniform, so they might as well go for it.

Word is Viciedo dropped more weight. Hopefully this will bode well for him in the outfield.

Mark Buehrle talks about the future after 2011
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 19, 2011 -> 08:08 AM) That would be Cole Hamels. But I get the point you were trying to make. Yeah, I guess technically Hamels is a 4, but he's really a 3. I'd consider Halladay a 1. Lee and Oswalt are 2's, and Hamels is a 3. I consider Buehrle a 4 because of his production the last 5 seasons. On a championship team, he's the guy that you'd want pitching the 4th game at this point in his career. We need Danks, Jackson, and Floyd to step up, and man, if we get 25-30 starts from Peavy--and a postseason, then we have a shot this season.

Mark Buehrle talks about the future after 2011
Buehrle is the best 4th starter in baseball. As long as he wants to be paid like a 4th starter after this year, he can stay as long as he's putting up 32 starts and 200+ innings.

MLBN lists
The other night, Al Leiter cited Alexei's error total, and said that his defense would have to improve if he's going to be higher on the shortstop list. Yikes. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Feb 18, 2011 -> 02:17 PM) Yeah, I would think so. Can't believe Alexei wasn't listed between 49-100. He is vastly underrated it seems.

He also said this might be the best White Sox team he's seen. For the 26th year in a row. QUOTE (G&T @ Feb 18, 2011 -> 07:49 AM) Ahhhh....Hawk is on the Score and mentioned Catfish within 45 seconds. It's that time of year and it feels good.

Reinsdorf won't let anyone wear #6. It was unofficially retired for Charley Lau. Otherwise, Beckham would be 6 now.
