I think Noesi is locked in to the back of the rotation. He made his starts, and he has room to improve. Getting a full spring training with Cooper should be a good thing. Sale, Samardzija, Quintana, Noesi, Bassitt would be fine if they're able to move Danks and improve the pen.

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 28, 2014 -> 11:43 PM) Hopefully Anderson goes nowhere. I would be fine if Danish is main guy going to Oakland. I could see Beane liking Semien. I don't think Anderson would be involved for a rent-a-player. I actually don't think Danish would be either. Semien, sure. Maybe a package of Semien or Sanchez, a lower level guy like Michalczewski, and a decent but not great, pitching prospect like Beck.

When there are rumors of a 3-way trade, you certainly can't rule the White Sox out.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Nov 28, 2014 -> 12:35 PM) The thing is, these guys they signed are in the same boat, or maybe in one leaking more water. Losing Jordan Danks isn't going to matter, but neither is Shuck or Campana. They suck just as much. I agree, but that's just the way it is. Bench players and run of the mill bullpen arms bounce around. Danks hasn't bounced yet, but it's probably mostly because his name is Danks.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Nov 28, 2014 -> 12:28 PM) I believe Danks has an option left, so he can be sent to AAA if he does not win the 4th OF job. He could, but at this point it might be that time to move on for everyone involved. 28. Not that good. 5 years in Charlotte. If he's going to be a journeyman, it's about that time to move along.

Probably a minor league deal with a spring training invite. It's in the minor league section.

Belisario has opted for free agency. He gawn...

10 days until they vote. This man belongs in the Hall. https://twitter.com/SoxNerd/status/538699012443234304

Sox have signed Tony Campana. https://twitter.com/Zach_Isler/status/538358078618730496 http://instagram.com/p/v8sXWMs68W/

Cricket player Phillip Hughes, age 25. Hit in the head playing a few days ago in Australia. Terrible.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Nov 26, 2014 -> 08:17 PM) I wouldn't mind seeing BelisaRio back as a spring training invite, he was pitching a role he wasn't used to out of the bullpen and he had a lot of bad luck. Nah, he'd just be late anyway.

Hopefully he still has to get non-tendered next week. Not sure if that's how it works now that he's off the 40-man. Anyway, be on your way.

December 10- Alexei to the Dodgers. Just wait.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 26, 2014 -> 09:34 AM) And if he gave 133 PA's like he did last year? Or the .303 OBP he put up during that stint last year? Victorino "if healthy" would be a great #2 hitter. Season ending back surgery. That's a no.

Definitely rooting for him to stay in the organization and get a ST invite.

2015- $12 2016- $13 25 mil for number 25, announced on the 25th.

LaRoche deal official.

QUOTE (MDWhiteSoxFan @ Nov 25, 2014 -> 08:11 AM) Just wondering have they ever named the PTBNL from the Beckham trade? They have not.

If it comes down to an older backup catcher, I'd be more for David Ross--but I hope it doesn't come down to that either.

A trade involving the Padres where they get Viciedo and Semien, and the Sox get Tyson Ross.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 21, 2014 -> 07:35 PM) I expect from here, Sox will add at least three more starters (quality outfielder, closer, and a starting pitcher) at a minimum. I also still think a Dodgers / Sox deal makes too much sense. Not sure about closer, but I think they have a few creative trades coming in the next few weeks. If I'm wrong, fine. But in three weeks I think Viciedo, Alexei, the Danks Bros, and Flowers are all gone. 2013 opening day lineup will be dust.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Nov 21, 2014 -> 07:24 PM) What does the Max & Benny's line refer to? On his baseball show on Saturday mornings, he does a 2-minute live read for this place every hour. I assume part of his deal is free food.
