QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 27, 2017 -> 02:43 PM) I really do think something will happen. For him to not appear at the last minute makes me confident Hahn is still negotiating at the very least. They probably have a well-crafted lie coming.

What do they say about opinions? Make your own lists. They're worth just as much as anyone else's.

https://twitter.com/NumbersMLB/status/825057147172032515 Moncada was quoted last month that he liked numbers 10, 19, and 27. Unless the Sox sign Alexei back, I'm certain he sticks with 10. Willy Garcia needs to be 27. Lock down the Garcias at 26, 27, and 28.

Hahn hour is 3-4. ESPN 1000 at 3 Score at 3:40

Too many Keith Law threads. That's for sure.

https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/824784358385078272 Looks like Moncada is good ole number 10.

If you want to hear Hahn, he was on with Rongey for five minutes at midnight last night saying goodbye to him, and had those quotes. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/audio/670-the-score-interviews/

Hahn is on with Rongey now. Stressing patience.

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Jan 25, 2017 -> 01:40 PM) Been waiting since last July and only three guys have been traded. Its not supposed to be this slow. You make trades when the players and timing are right. Hasn't happened yet, and teams don't play games that count for about 10 weeks.

MLB Network will have their Top 100 Prospects, Saturday at 7pm.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jan 25, 2017 -> 11:19 AM) Padres are probably only group with a worse offense than Sox, right? Not sure. I should probably throw the Brewers in there too. Then it comes down to injuries, more trades, and strength of schedule. Still a lot of variables. My hope is the Sox keep making quality trades, and draft in the top 3 in 2018.

Reds, Padres, White Sox, A's, Rays, Twins, Phillies...pick your order. These are probably the seven worst teams in baseball.

Coop on the Score this morning...said he wasn't in love seeing that Kopech video, but he's a young kid and he'll learn.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jan 18, 2017 -> 12:27 PM) They can take their chances and hold on to him, but I think he gets traded a week from today. Wednesday, January 25.

Oh you mean the draft blowing on Eaton wasn't true? Shocking. Levine also hinted last month that Sale hurt his ankle playing basketball or something, not jumping from his truck.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jan 23, 2017 -> 01:59 PM) Also have Avi and Davidson listed as DHs. I noticed that. I'm choosing to ignore that.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Jan 23, 2017 -> 01:40 PM) Aaron Bummer is new name for me. I wouldn't consider myself a minor league expert, but I follow boxscores and the Sox top prospects, and not sure I've even seen that name before. Agreed on Bummer. If I ever knew his name, I forgot it. He's a lefty. 59 in camp as of now. 32 pitchers (11 lefties) 6 catchers 11 infielders 10 outfielders (Asche and Leury listed as OF) http://m.whitesox.mlb.com/roster/40-man/

Sox invite 19 to major league camp. Names coming... INFs Cody Asche & Everth Cabrera, LHPs David Holmberg & Cory Luebke, C Roberto Pena, RHPs Blake Smith & Anthony Swarzak, C Geovany Soto. https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/823611926865387521

Rongey leaving https://twitter.com/ChrisRongey/status/823601051257438209 Looks like he'll be moving to St Louis and working for the ESPN station.

MLB Network's Top 10 Starting Pitchers Right Now...the name Jose Quintana didn't come up once. John Smoltz actually went to top 20...nope, not there either.

Baseball is a social institution. They say it time and time again. They take these teenagers out of poverty, and some of them come to this country without a lot of education or common sense. So MLB does have an opportunity to use Oscar Taveras, Jose Fernandez and Yordano Ventura as examples of what can happen. Not sure how this can be disputed. Sure, at the end of the day (or night), you have to be personally responsible, but the business of baseball is a little different than the run of the mill American employer.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jan 22, 2017 -> 12:00 PM) Driving in the dominican is crazy. I got dominican friends and theyve told me stories. Even worse when your intoxicated. There are youtube videos devoted to driving in the DR. Crazy stuff.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jan 22, 2017 -> 11:17 AM) What do you mean support the players? Young people do reckless s***, whether they're baseball players or not. MLB will never be able to change that and quite frankly it's not their responsibly to do so. It's true, but it's another opportunity to educate and have the discussion. After the discussion, it's up to the individual.
