https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/4449...1468032/photo/1 I'd rather watch Semien and Davidson anyway.

Beckham has a strained left oblique. No baseball activity for 7 days.

I'm not high on Cervelli for Beckham straight up, but I'd like to see Beckham moved before opening day. Let Semien start, and see how it goes while Sanchez and Johnson are playing in the minors. Hopefully by July, everyone is playing well enough, and they can trade Alexei and move Semien to SS.

If Nestor Molina is Marco Paddy's biggest mistake, I'm ok with that.

Flowers scratched. Phegley again. Flowers catching Sale tomorrow night, and DHing Sunday.

Wilkins trade bait to anyone?

Ooh...maybe no tie today.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 10, 2014 -> 05:34 PM) Surkamp looks like a bum Crafty lefty, which means lefty Dylan Axelrod.

Zach Stewart to Atlanta for cash. Raise your hand if you forgot Stewart was still with the Sox organization. Hi.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 11:27 PM) Is Micker Zapata in minor league camp? This is from last Monday... https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/440590752410648576

Petricka could be a tough guy to send down at the end of spring training. They're going to need him this year though.

Erik Johnson is going to make a lot of money.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 02:20 PM) Except this was reported months before Bruce said it. Point is, Levine is bored. He's been out there for a month and he has nothing left to talk about. So instead of reporting a deal that is legitimate and close to happening, he's leaning on old news and conversations that every team has. Teams are always talking about players. It doesn't mean they're going to happen. That's where Levine sucks--he talks about things that never come true. So could this Viciedo thing happen? Sure, but it would just be Levine hitting his 1 in 100 things he talks about.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 01:32 PM) Interest/=something happening. Right, so Levine can keep making stuff up, like the Sox are interested in Mike Leake and Henry Blanco.

When it comes to Bruce Levine trying to break something, I don't listen. Call me when it happens.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Mar 9, 2014 -> 08:34 AM) Does anybody know when the first televised game of the spring will be? Wasn't there a thread with the entire spring training broadcast schedule? This week: Tomorrow at 3 on MLB Network Tuesday at 3pm (whitesox.com) Friday at 6am on MLB Network (Thursday's game) Friday at 3pm on CSN Saturday at 9pm on CSN Sunday at 7pm on MLB Network (4 hour delay)

Wheels Konerko. 4-4 game, rbi single for Danks.

That sucks. He should be ok though.

Sox are playing a B game Tuesday morning against the Indians. Beck, Snodgress, and Poveda will pitch.

Here's my feeling on Ventura... 1- Ventura isn't going to embarrass himself as a person. 2- Reinsdorf loves the guy, and is in the inner-circle. 3- Hahn doesn't view the manager position as a huge difference in wins and losses. He's given information that the organization provides, and he's a good people person and deals with the media fine. So until Reinsdorf or Hahn are gone, it's true, Ventura has complete job security.
