QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 9, 2017 -> 10:36 AM) I'm going 13 pitchers to start. OF- Cabrera, Tilson, Garcia, Bourjos IF- Frazier, Anderson, Saladino, Sanchez, Abreu, Davidson C- Narvaez, Soto SP- Quintana, Shields, Holland, Gonzalez, Rodon BP- Covey, Ynoa, Luebke, Petricka, Putnam, Jennings, Jones, Robertson With the Tilson injury, I'll replace him with Asche and May, and dump Davidson. I would say Leury, but his baserunning is a joke. Obviously, 2-3 bullpen spots are up in the air.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 05:26 PM) So who do we expect to start CF come opening day Bourjos

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 03:52 PM) The White Sox have scored 8 runs in an inning in 3 straight games. 22 runs and recorded 8 outs in their last 3 innings at the plate Pretty crazy the last couple games. This spring, they've played pretty typical scoring baseball games.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 01:06 PM) No. Their usual procedure is to try a 3 week rest to see if it's more the stress reaction vs. more severe type of stress fracture. That's why they tried to work him at 3 weeks or so. It was still sore so they will probably wait another 3-4 to see how it reacts. It's what the process is for this type of injury. I don't doubt your knowledge of the injury, but he hasn't played a baseball game in over 7 months. If it's going to take a few more weeks, then he's not ready for a major league season. He needs to play AAA baseball to rehab, and if he's ready, then bring him back. It's not like he's an established major league player.

I would assume Quintana will face the Cubs on Friday after the Thursday off day. edit: actually not at this moment https://twitter.com/JJStankevitz/status/841326188664508417

QUOTE (shipps @ Mar 13, 2017 -> 12:04 PM) They need to shelve him for 2-3 months at least, no matter what, and throw him back out there mid season if completely healed. Its no biggie, the season is meant for taking the entire 162 to evaluate young talent. He will get his shot at some point. Agreed with that. He hasn't played in so long...Tilson needs to go to the minors when he's ready and proven healthy, then bring him back. It's like he got into a tough-guy mode and pretended he was healthy enough, but clearly he isn't.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 12, 2017 -> 10:51 PM) Oh wait... the thread for today's games doesn't exist, so far as I can see... Edit: Yea, it's already been archived for some reason. God forbid we discuss Moncada in a Moncada thread. I was trying to make a joke about the game thread being gone, not taking a shot at you. Anyway, yeah Moncada one k away from a sombrero.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 12, 2017 -> 10:51 PM) Oh wait... the thread for today's games doesn't exist, so far as I can see... I know. Somebody closed it for some reason. Davidson 0-3, 3 k

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 12, 2017 -> 10:24 PM) Dudes looked lost at the plate this spring. If only there were a game thread to discuss this. Oh wait...

CWS vs. Dodgers, tonight: Engel 8, Anderson 6, Cabrera 7, A. Garcia 9, Davidson 5, Moncada 4, Soto 2, Hayes 3, Schnurbusch DH, Holland LHP On WLS radio for your sleeping pleasure.

I feel sorry for the coaching staff that has to sit through another one of these tonight.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 12, 2017 -> 12:45 PM) I think Sox would be a perfect fit for Vegas if Vegas built a new indoor stadium. Great uniforms to market, in fact the best uniforms in baseball. Have a billionaire owner and you'd have quite a match. Probably would take a while to build such a stadium. If the Sox ever leave, I'd bet the White Sox name ends here.

Lineup vs Rangers https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/840946416809857025 Not sure the Dodgers game will be on MLB Network overnight. My guide says USA vs Canada re-air.

Exciting split squad action tomorrow. Kopech facing the Rangers at 2 on WGN. Change your clocks tonight.

Jake Dunning is traveling with the big club today. Not brother Dane.

https://twitter.com/CST_soxvan/status/840586496176410624 Big start for Covey. Dunning in the pen (but which one?).

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 07:16 PM) I wanna trade Q as much as the next guy but f*** it'd hurt so bad to see him go, maybe even more then Sale, dude is nails. Agreed, but I'll root for him in the playoffs this year, and enjoy the Sox playoff teams of 2020-2023 (hopefully).

Just curious, if Q was at 63 pitches, and hit 65 in the middle of an at bat, would he have had to come out?

Eh, let's get Q back to Glendale next week in one piece. He did all he could.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 10, 2017 -> 06:34 PM) Out runs Q Yeesh. Hope it's a quick batter or two, then he tips his cap.

Some hard outs, but Q was masterful.

Should I know who Givens is?

Nice to see the defense playing well behind Q. Hopefully 4 scoreless, and then the USA goes on to win.
