QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 27, 2013 -> 04:37 PM) If you trade Morel after or during spring training, you are going to get a player who is less valuable than Jeff Soptic. I don't agree with that. If he shows he's healthy, there are plenty of teams that would want to take a chance on a plus defensive player at 3B that has shown some offensive promise. It's a gamble, but teams would give something better than a hard-throwing relief pitcher.

Well, the first 5 innings were decent to follow. Now brutal spring training baseball.

How can Phegley be a hard name to learn and remember how to pronounce?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 27, 2013 -> 03:20 PM) Unless the Sox are overwhelmed, there's absolutely no point to trade him. I agree. But they will call.

Nice outing for Castro. Lot of check swings.

Morel looks pretty good. If he has a few weeks of good spring ball, teams will be calling.

Melton does no homework. none.

My feeling about the Tigers...ignore them. The Sox don't play them until July. I want the Sox to get their 89th win before the season ends. If they get to 89, they'll either win a weak division or win the 2nd wildcard. If the 2nd wildcard is the best the Sox can do, I'll take it.

Go Brazil

I think there are 3 reasons why this spring training isn't that interesting... 1) It's way too long. I can't sustain interest in fake baseball for 5+ weeks. 2) There aren't any new exciting additions. Keppinger may turn out to be a great player for the Sox, but he's not a reason to watch. 3) We pretty much know the 25-man roster right now. There's very little chance a young player can break with the team.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 25, 2013 -> 01:57 PM) I'm already tired of Spring Training. Me too. I watched that game yesterday, and it was really boring. Sox have a home game in five weeks.

Did anyone hear Nick Capra on White Sox Weekly over the weekend? He mentioned a pitcher that would have been in the rotation at Winston-Salem, and he retired on Saturday. I wasn't paying attention, so I missed the name. I went back to listen on the podcast, and it sounds like they purposely edited out that part of the interview.

2-2 Final We get a point.

Watched an inning of Yankees/Jays. Granderson got hit in the wrist/forearm. Out 10 weeks.

I'll bump this. Today's game is supposed to be on whitesox.com. Full schedule in Post 1.

The game is on whitesox.com. If Melton is there, he gets to pronounce Tekotte. http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/video/play...96&c_id=cws

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Feb 22, 2013 -> 11:32 AM) Are you including Konerko's entire 2013 salary or just the part he's actually getting this year, because I come up with something closer to $108M. Yep, you're right. His 2013 salary is 13.5, but 7m of it is deferred. So, yeah, 108-109 mil.

QUOTE (BlackJack @ Feb 22, 2013 -> 12:01 PM) Mark Gonzales ‏@MDGonzales Hahn said Morel not out of 3b picture, "Lets see how the next several weeks unfold." Morel could still be the opening day 3b for the Marlins.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Feb 22, 2013 -> 11:13 AM) Mark Gonzales ‏@MDGonzales Sox trade hard-throwing Jeff Soptic for left-handed hitting third baseman Conor Gillaspie Good move. They need to cover themselves at 3B.

...and Dylan Axelrod as Toby Flenderson http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,5098238.story --- 40-man all signed. Viciedo 2.8 mil; Sale 600K, Reed 520K I have the Sox at around 116 Mil for 2013
