Johnny Romano R.I.P.
8 left from the 1959 team. Aparicio is the last living Sox player that played in the 59 Series. Barry Latman and Ken McBride were pitchers that played significant time with the Sox that year. Lou Skizas, OF and Claude Raymond, P played in April, 1959. Joe HIcks, OF, JC Martin, 3B, and Gary Peters, P were September callups in 1959. Skizas will be 87 in June, is the oldest. Raymond will be 82 in May, is the youngest.

What’s the DL? (I’m so new school. Yeah right.)

3/1 vs Rangers, 2pm
Don't think this is broadcast anywhere. What's Adolfo's status these days? Is he playing before spring training is over, or is he still out for a while?

- KW: "It's a shame" the Sox are being portrayed as cheap
I’m still rooting for the rebuild because I have no other choice as a fan. But once 2021 comes without a playoff appearance, ownership must change.- KW: "It's a shame" the Sox are being portrayed as cheap
They’re skewering KW on the Score now- KW: "It's a shame" the Sox are being portrayed as cheap
“Quarter of a billion dollars” is the new “First place for 119 days”.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
No doubt, 2022 (after the strike), the DH will be universal. Then we’re one step closer to expansion and realignment with the Chicago teams in the same division. Once that happens, I might be done with team sports.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
And they didn’t trade Sale for Moncada to just be ordinary. They need 3-4 quality starters, Eloy and Moncada to be stars...then they can supplement with really good free agents that actually want to be here.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
When you look at the overall deal, I’m shocked the Nationals couldn’t have done something to keep him. He’s going to be booed in Washington forever.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
It’s unnecessary for Hahn to do media about not signing Harper. It was all about Manny from the time they tried to trade for him. Harper was a huge long shot and the Sox probably have known it wasn’t happening for quite some time.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
Machado was an epic fail. Harper wasn’t coming here no matter what.- 2/28 ST game thread
Expecting this game won’t be on MLBN tonight now that the Harper deal is done. Might be extra talking head coverage.- Harper to Phillies 13yr/330 mil
Took a while, but Nightengale was right.- 2019 Season Squad
The season starts four weeks from today, March 28. The 25-man roster should be finalized the day before but they'll usually know a few days before they leave Arizona. This year, they play a couple extra games in Arizona, so we might not know until the 26th.- 2/28 ST game thread
MLB Network on delay tonight too.- Eloy opening day if he earns it
I suggest the Player’s Association negotiate better and creative roster rules for the next CBA so the time a team brings up a prospect becomes less impactful on years of control. Until then, it’s common sense what the Sox are doing, and the players should only blame their own union if they have a problem with it.- 2/27 vs Reds, 2pm, whitesox.com
But enough about Fernando Tatis...- 2/27 vs Reds, 2pm, whitesox.com
It wouldn’t be the worst thing if Eloy bats .250 for a couple weeks, and they send him to minor league camp around March 12-15. It’s not like the Sox are short on outfielders with big league experience that are getting ready for the 28th.- 2/27 vs Reds, 2pm, whitesox.com

Looks like it’s his adopted brother, Romell Jordan.- 2/27 vs Reds, 2pm, whitesox.com

Turned 24 a couple months ago- Sox vs. Royal (SS) ST Game - 205pm CT
Also lucky he wasn't picking up teeth off the warning track. - KW: "It's a shame" the Sox are being portrayed as cheap
