Chicago White Sox

Shields has retired 9 of his last 10 batters faced with no hits allowed and no K’s.

We’re on pace for nearly 500 HRs this year

Wow! He crushed that damn thing!!

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 10:13 AM) Score predictions? I think the Sox win this one 6-5. I think Shields goes five innings giving up four runs, but the bullpen & offense are able to pull out the win for us. I’m expecting a multi-hit game for Anderson & one blast from either Abreu or Avi to lead the charge. Still looking good!

f*** yes!!

Alright guys, let’s score some f***ing runs!

50% K rate through three innings, our guys definitely look ready...

Engel >>> Trout

Good god this is ugly.

QUOTE (Baron @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 03:54 PM) Batting Practice got 3 outs. It's a miracle. He’ll end up going 5 innings with just the four runs.

Why the f*** are there Cubs related commercials on this broadcast?!?

I almost pulled my 4 year old son out of daycare to watch this game in hopes of turning him into a Sox fan (his mom is a diehard Cubs fan), but I’m guessing it was a wise decision not to. If watching James Shields pitch that fist inning was my first real Sox experience I’d probably want to be a Cubs (or Royals) fan.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 03:32 PM) Worst trade in Sox history? I mean that Bell/Sosa trade didn’t work out too well, but this one has a chance of being up there.

I hate James Shields with all of my heart. What a f***ing little b****.

Limit this to two runs James.

All I ask of Shields is to keep us in the game. Do NOT blow this in the first inning.

194 minutes until first pitch...

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 10:02 AM) I understand why he was pissed though. This game is all about relationships and friends outside the house and one of his good friends (Cara) screwed him and then Tony gave him a BS excuse Leroy’s game may be all about relationships, but at some point you have to prove yourself and not just ride the Bananas wagon every single season. I thought Tony’s reason for voting him in was just. Leroy has been terrible this season and was super aggressive during the troicha interview. And Cara was literally banging the other dude, what did Leroy expect her to do? I think it’s pretty s***ty that Leroy is even in the finals, but at least he had to prove himself to get in.

Guys, just to be clear, this is a prospect prediction thread.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 1, 2018 -> 02:51 PM) I remember an early season incident of Devin vs. Johnny that was out of nowhere, made me think something was gonna happen between them later. But would Tony and Zach really vote him in? I guess Zach might, but no way with Tony. Got to give credit to Tony for making that power move. Unfortunately he’ll have to face Johnny in the finals. Should be interesting as hell. Also, anyone else think Leroy was acting like huge b**** on this week’s episode? He has no business being in the final and the fact he’s been around nine seasons doesn’t change that.

I’m shocked they haven’t released the lineups yet.

QUOTE (buntforahit @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 09:38 AM) I see a WS rotation of Dunning, Lambert, Cease, Flores and Puckett. Love that rotation! Where's Sheets going to start? The problem is we know Puckett is in the AA rotation per Getz. Dunning, Cease, & Flores are locks for the Dash’s rotation. I think Martinez has the next best case for a spot. That leaves one opening for Lambert, Solorzano, Hickman, or Davis. I was probably wrong to assume Solorzano gets that spot as he was dreadful in 2017 and should probably repeat in Kannapolis. Honestly I have no idea which of those other guys get the spot although Lambert is probably the safest guess.

QUOTE (WBWSF @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 09:33 AM) Positive: After another losing season. Hahn is finally no longer the White Sox GM. 6 Seasons of being "Mired in Mediocrity" is even too much for JR. Hahns contract won't be renewed after the 2018 season. What does any of this whining have to do with PROSPECTS? Good god you’re insufferable.

QUOTE (Dunt @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 09:32 AM) I think he is only on the MLB Pipeline top 100, he was off everything else from what I remember I think BP is pretty high on him, although not sure if he cracked their top 100.
